Default Okay question on a intake mod...

I currently have a 2001 6-speed Coupe with a forged motor, V2 Vortech, and the accompaning boltons. I still have the stock throttle body and LS6 intake though. My question is how much could I expect to gain if I bolted on a fast 90/90 setup? I am currently at 8 PSI and am going up to 12 with some alky as well. Just curious if it would be worth the money. Thanks for any input!

On FI cars, the FAST setup is not worth the money for the increase it gives. LS2 intake and TB is much better. It is better than a LS6 setup and much cheaper than the FAST.

I'd do a smaller blower puley with meth and call it good. You'll lose some bottom-end grunt with the FAST 90, FWIW.

Nothing wrong with the LS6 as mine supports over 700 rwhp
