I would use a aluminum or a ls6 intake- the fast is a two piece design and is a little more fragile. I would ask this in the FI section for some better answers.

I'd stick with the LS6 intake. This C5 is making 740 rwhp with the LS6 intake, stock maf and stock throttle body.

If you want to use the FAST it can have good results but I'm not sure it's limitations on boost. I'm at 13psi with no problems. Just make sure before you install it you take it apart and use some strong silicone between the two sections. That helps to make it stronger and prevents any chance of it leaking boost.

what would be an example of a good aluminum intake manifold? I have been wondering the same thing. I currently have an ls6 intake mani and I am looking to turbo soon @ around 15psi...

Fast is not worth the money stick with the ls6 or go sheetmetal.

Sheetmetal > FAST > LS6 > LS1
There, I made it easy. And as would be expected, cost flows in the same pattern. You want to make the most power? Go all the way to the left. But that's also where you'll be spending the most money.
