Default Total upgrade cost LSXR102 vs MSD Airforce 102

What is the total cost, intake plus associated hardware, for an MSN Airforce intake vs FAST LSXR 102?

LSX needs new fuel rails... does the MSD?

LSX doesn't come with gaskets... does the MSD?

Anything else??

I've installed both. Both came with gaskets. Both run the same fuel rail. Both needed oversized injector o rings

And you have no idea who you are dealing with. A little research would answer all your questions, but you chose to ask them here, and when one of the more knowledgeable guys around here gives you a not-totally-comprehensive answer, a smartass remark results. A little respect goes a long way, but maybe I'm just talking to the wall here....

So you have no idea how to be polite to other people when they respond to your question.

Avoid this person.

Wtf does this even mean? But to confirm his response he's correct, both manifolds come with gaskets and will need ls2/3 fuel rails along with injector adapters and o rings.

If you know what you're doing and can shop around for used parts you can do the swap for under a grand

You should be kind to your neighbors. I believe Darth would have set you one up for $3000 and installed it for free.

Hands down this kid makes a new profile from another computer and signs up to Ls1tech and starts posting a re-worded thread on the topic a few days later, and this account never posts again.

Good way to save face, if he can change his antisocial traits, but I wouldn't hold my breath.....

Wow what a douchebag. Darth is right 100%. Just did the same swap myself. But you should just use an LS6 intake instead. Would match your intelligence level.

My apologies. I misread Darth V8r's post. Posting when pissed at the world and a little intoxicated is a bad idea.
