Default How can I upgrade my "new" fast 78 to an 85, should I bother?

Well I just bought a fast 78 on here from a board member, and I want to bolt it on, along with a descreened 85mm MAF, and a ported TB / Lid.
I'm hoping this will take me from my 387rwhp to 400rwhp.
I have heard some rumblings over the years, on this board, about changing a Fast 78 over to a Fast 85.
How is this done? I don't feel like blindly taking a dremel tool to my new fast intake?
And how much is it going to cost me / is it worth the money?

Yes its worth the money and yes it is simply using a dremel. If you cant come to do that to the intake you can find the top shell of a FAST 90 and swap them, they are interchangeable
