Default F.A.S.T. Intake....any thoughts?

I am interested in seeing views on that new intake from F.A.S.T. It looks great and I think the design is also great. Anyone tried it yet, or even priced it yet???

If this thing performs like they claim, it could really be a nice upgrade to the LS6 intake. :yesnod:

They are doing final mods to it and hope to introduce it in the latter part of the fall, I think Lou (LGM) is expecting one to try shortly. The price is expected to be in the mid 800 range but nothing in concrete yet.

Can't wait to see the Hp rating on this intake.

November Corvette Fever has an entire writerup on the manifold including dyno numbers, this may not be the finished product but they have a dyno chart.

NeptuneBill, if you look closely at that article, the dyno graph numbers do not match the write up in the paragraph. I believe the numbers on the graph more.

It should be quite an improvement over the LS6 intake for sure. I am just looking for some real data.

Does anyone know if there is a waiting list for these? :cheers:

Cary,

That was not too informative as LG didn't have any actual information on the new intake.
