Default F.A.S.T. intake manifolds

Talked to the guys a FAST (fuel air spark tech) today, they are still working with the runners trying to squeeze out a few more horses, they still plan on releasing in oct or nov. currently getting 25rwhp more than an ls1 intake and 15 rw more than the ls6, sounds like with one of the new TB's we could get 25rwhp more out of the motors and particullarly the strokers--

I am excited to see this released, but also excited to see the C6 intake. I have "heard" the parts may be interchangable. Either will be a big improvement over my LS1 intake.

A lot of people don't realize these hp figures and are misled.

Basically, the more modded your car is, the better results you'll receive from the intake swap. I saw a comparison between LS1 and LS6 intake manifolds and there was an amazing difference between them with just heads.

I agree, the guy there told me they have 3 personal cars in various stages they are testing on, of course I offered to test it on my blower motor and on the stroker when it arrives (if ever) I just can't talk anyone into selling or lending me a prototype of any other manifolds they are working on.

Do these guys have a web site. I would like to keep up with the progress of the intake. What kind of new TB are you talking about ? :thumbs:

We are looking forward to having these as soon as theyare out.

We have our name on a large quantity of these already at LG Motorsports.

We should have them up on our web site in a few weeks with more info. The factory rep stopped at our shop last week, and we will have plenty of these at the best price that we can offer.

It should be fun, getting new numbers on all these cam and head cars. :yesnod:

Thanks guys,

Lou G

Lou - can you give us an idea of the cost? Price range?

This is really going to require re-thinking camshaft selection. I would suspect that the trend in reverse splits may end up at a symetric profile camshaft if they can get the flow up.

Looking forward to folks making 440HP in a bolt on Z06 car, or a 500HP in a H/C car soon enough....

Now, that is cool since we can clean it since oil will deposit inside sometime.
Man, I just bought LS6 intake ... should have waited ...
Look like after this, LS6 intake will go down to 100$ :D

How does changing the intake affect the mileage?
