Fast is a brand that makes intakes. Fast intakes are really good. make different sizes. typically people say stick with ls6 until you do heads or cam and then you will see a good enough improvement over ls6 to justify the high price tag.
Read the sticky on the top of this section and will outline all the bolt ons.

Ls6/ported TB is the best "bang for the buck" setup by far.

you running a lid? aftermarket cat-back?
most defintely a ported TB and LS6 intake will net some good power... a good start to go with and and help that cam breathe a little more.

A waste of money on something that looks like ****.
Buy these..
Lid- Just get a used one of here.. They can be had for around 50-80$ +shipping or shipped.
Cutout- 35$ brand new off Jegs/Summit.. Get someone to weld it up for you, should only be around 25$.
Ls6 intake/ported TB.. Get a used one on here.. DO NOT pay more than 310$ shipped on the intake... Be careful who did the porting on the TB.. There is a guy from the forums that sells ported TBs on ebay and does a good job on them, think it is like 70$ (pic has a lady holding it with huge ****)? And then you can sell your TB for some cash.
Cheapest route with more power gains.
