those are some solid gains from the fast! That almost makes me want to hold off on the cam and do the FAST first. I think I am set on the Cam first, but I could easily change my mind...

I don't think those numbers were from a FAST only... Xstang mentioned that his FAST made it feel like he installed headers all over again, which tells me that he at least already had headers on his car before his FAST was installed.

Additionally, Joe_G read his time slip off the 1/4 mile page and this was what it read (great #'s by the way):
"11.80 @ 123.50 - Xstang - 05 Z51 M6 - CAI, 3.90, H&C, hdrs, tune, DR - (1178)"

I just added a ported FAST onto my A6 (so I'm starting w/ about 316RWHP/TQ) and I ended up w/ 350RWHP & 358RWTQ.

That equates to aa gain of about 34 RWHP and 42 RWTQ from just my AintQik ported and SpinMonster modded FAST.

And, there still some HP left as the tune's not completed yet.
