Since you already have headers, wait to do the FAST until you do a cam change...and you'll have a great combo.

Slide on over to Speed, Inc and let them at least give you a quote. They're right next door to you in Schaumberg.

Yes i was basing my post on a NA ls2. The same would hold true for forced induction(a less restrictive intake will make more power).
