Yes, I think it would be at least that much between the two. There are of course other various benefits to choosing either route as well.
Yea if I had a firm idea that the Wieand would get me to 400 HP/ TQ I
would by it in an instant. Im about 11 HP/TQ away with the PORTED TB & OEM MANIFOLD. Its a goal.

They aren`t out yet, i think they still have to be released. I just bought a Fast90 because its been around and its been proven.

I think the LS1 tech banter is an optimistic guess at this point but one of the responders enlarged the graph of the Weiand vesus an LS6 manifold...pretty impressive !....go to the LPE site and look under the TPIS version of the LS6 intake and then look at the dyno results of the TPIS/LS6 versus the ported LS2 and in turn the FAST...I would wait to see what the Weiand is capable of doing. Obviously these test are unrelated/ various different motors/ combos but I think waiting a couple months until the Weiand comes out I was thinking a combo of the Weiand + AFR 205 heads+ Thunder Racing CHEATR2 cam (no headers!)...might be one stealthy but potent combination.

Wow! Those are impressive gains...... but I wonder if there is a catch

Does it drop dead on the top end before our stock redline?

I'll go ahead and ask though I'm sure a search will bring the answer....what else is required with the FAST....the fire wall kit, fuel lines, etc??
