Default LSX FAST intake leaking... help

Hello there.

well i installed the LSX FAST intake and TB 78mm

first i hear a turbo sound, the RPM hangs above 1500 for a long time. and when it gets to 1000 it keeps going up and down ( stock cam)
the car feels alot weaker, i lost alot of torque.

a friend told me that the FAST intakes have to be sealed before installing since the intake is 3 pieces.

well what is the best way to seal it and what should i use? pic would help alot.

Did you replace the valley cover screws with the ones fast supplied? Did you bend the front coolant crossover tube down?

Just noticed you used the fast TB. Check it for all the issues that the 90mm version is having....
