Default who ports FAST intakes?

Does anybody know of a place that can port my 92mm fast intake manifold? I know some places will do it if you buy the mamifold from them.

Vengeance did a great job on my intake... They also removed the FAST logo and painted it glossy black. Vengeance FTW!!

Also Mamo does good port jobs on the FAST as well. Good Luck and keep us posted.

WAIT A MINUTE.I bought a fast 102mm from vengeance and paid $250 for porting. After looking at the intake,it was never taken apart. I know because i took it apart to see what was done. all they done was run some 100grit sand paper where you can reach by hand. I would not call this porting or pay $250 for what i now know. I asked ron hey,what did they do to port this intake. He told me "i don't know" I love vengeance racing and would buy from them again,but the intake porting from what i seen on my intake,is not worth paying for .

I matched mine to my AFRs when I did it. I'd want to have it mounted on heads if I were to do it.

Just to clarify Mike, I do not EVER recall saying "I do not know" about anything when asked something from a customer. It is my job to know.

That being said, I have explained this many times before. We have done extensive testing on the 90/92/102mm intakes with different porting techniques. We acheived the best results by working the runners and the inlet to the intake manifold. We spend several hours using various tools to port the runners and the inlet of the intake. We have proven results all over various forums of unported Vs ported intakes with real world results. We do offer more extensive porting depending on the combination, but for 99% of the heads/cam & mild street strokers the work we perform has been proven to produce excellent results.

Rest assured, we have seen MOST of the other available options of ported intakes available and the biggest difference is the cost.

We currently have our ported FAST intakes on sale for $999.99 if anyone is interested. I would encourage you to do a search on Vengeance ported FAST intake and see the results for yourself.

I would just have a cyl. head porter do it and have both heads and intake port matched for best results. Well, at least that's what i did

Im curious how much the gains are from a out of the box fast 92 to a ported 92?

I would definitely send it Vengeance or AFR for sure!!

So with a M6, full bolt on, 228 cam, what are typical gains with a ported FAST 102? I keep hearing they are overkill with stock cubes and 241 heads...true? Would there be a loss in low end power/torque? And do these bolt right up or would I need new fuel rails etc etc.

Thanks

sweet I think I'll try to get ahold of tony mamo when I get the heads and maybe see if he can do something with those too. I was thinking vengeance but Im not happy about thier customer service, I left a facebook message on the link about the FAST intake porting a few days ago. And when they had the GMMG catback group purchases I left them my name and number so I could purchase the setup since I had emissions and then I ended up not hearing anything from them and then got stuck with a fine for emissions.
