FAST intake question
I'm getting Cam and Clutch done on Wednesday-already looking down the road to an intake-my question is will a retune be required if I switch to a FAST intake from the stocker?
TIA

The reason i'm asking is because of the new article in Hot Rod (engines), they got 19 flywheel horsepower from a FAST intake swap from stock.
LG has a 90mm tb available too. Comes with harness for around 500 bucks.
All results above are dyno numbers.

Weiand is coming out with a new plastic version of its LS series Cast Aluminum intake this March that may be better than the Fast intake for a stock LS2.

Just mount it up to the Fast 90mm intake. You may choose to port your stock TB though, that can help a little bit.

new wieand . Its hard to believe 15 HP/TQ over the FAST. Then we must consider the aspect of one ported unit over another. I had a thread going "Ported OEM VS Ported FAST" My tuner figures at least
10 for the fast over the oem ( BOTH PORTED ).

It is possible I guess but I would want to see some in depth testing of a true production unit on a C6 before passing any further judgement. 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.
