Default Intake and Throttle Body Porting Special is BACK ON!

From now through July 17th we are bringing back the intake and throttle body porting and tuning special, here are the details:


We are now making our ported intake manifolds and throttle bodies available together for $325.00 shipped for a Stage 1 and $400.00 shipped for the Stage 2. This is a savings of $75.00 off regular pricing. In addition, if you would like a your vehicle email tuned and optimized for this greater air flowing ability (with HP Tuners), we will do this for just $200.00. This is a another savings of $75.00 off regular pricing. Even if you don't have HP Tuners, you can send us your PCM and we will do it that way. With this combo of tuning and fully ported manifold/tb you could see up to 30 rwhp and 35 rwtq gains depending on platform and combination.


Stage 1 intake only $275.00 shipped
Stage 2 intake only $350.00 shipped
LS2 and up Throttle Bodies $100.00 shipped

FAST 90/92 manifold porting reduced to $250.00 for this time period (102's are $250 as well)



Normally our stage 1 intakes are $300.00, Stage 2's $400.00, TB's $150 and mail order tuning $275.00. Done together for now for only $525.00 stage 1 or $600.00 for stage 2, you will save $150.00 when tuning and porting combined.


Stage 1 information:

The average gain for the LS2 intake manifold over stock is 11 rwhp/13rwtq. The LS3/L76 average gain over stock is 10 rwhp/12rwtq. The LS7 average gain over stock is 17rwhp/19rwtq.


We have done over 350+ LS2 intake manifolds, 100+ LS7 , and 70+ LS3 & L76s and over 350 TB's.


When porting the TB you will see greatly improved throttle response and bottom end/mid range Tq feel and a significant seat of the pants gain. Our manifolds are very thoroughly ported not only in the runners (like some do) but also much of the plenum and TB flange are enlarged in order to support more airflow in the upper RPM. The larger the air reservoir the less likely to deplete more volume in the upper RPMs. Hence the OEM difference of the '00 LS1 intake vs the '01 LS6 intake.

Stage 2 information:


Stage 2 porting is taking the manifold to its limit - as much of the plenum is removed while still staying safe from vacuum leaks. We rework all the runners for an even deeper cut and we use a much more aggressive sanding method, even deeper than the 8 inches we typically port in the stg 1 manifolds. For stage two manifolds we remove the inner posts and completely flatten the plenum floor all the way to the back on the inside of the manifold as well as the outside so as to make a air gap between the valley and manifold base. We epoxy small aluminum plates, screw them in, and then epoxy the inside as well, to prevent any air leaks. This stage 2 manifold porting is a cheaper alternative to a FAST manifold, but it is also designed for someone that is trying to FULLY optimize their power on a budget. We are targeting those that want the MOST from the stock manifold at a decent price.

On our own GTO we tested the stage 2 manifold vs our stage one and we picked up an additional 6rwhp and 7 rwtq on an A-B test on the dyno same day, same weather, same engine conditions. This is in addition to the 11/13 from the stage one manifold We also had an independent test done by a shop in NY and they gained over 15+rwhp and 18+rwtq.
We do not offer stg2 for the FASTs. We port all of them as aggressively as possible, with over 3.5 hours to port per manifold.

Ls2 average gains over stage 1 porting is 6 rwhp/7 rwtq
LS3/76 average gains over stage 1 porting is 4 rwhp/4 rwtq
LS7 average gains over stage 1 porting is 4 rwhp/4 rwtq

Performance will vary depending on mods and tuning.



If you want us to send you directly a ported intake and throttle body, a core charge of $550.00 applies ($275.00 each), but it is refunded as soon as we receive your undamaged originals back. To send us your intake and throttle body for porting the turn around time is typically 2-3 business days. All intake manifold gaskets are typically reusable.

Here is a post with some helpful tuning tips for those doing their own, or having someone else do the tune.

Note: we do not port LS1 or LS6 manifolds as there are no measurable gains associated with these manifolds.



Dyno Graphs

This is an 05 GTO M6 "on the dyno" A (stage 1 ported manifold) vs B (stage 2 ported manifold).


After getting the base line run in, the stage 1 was removed and the stage 2 was installed and tested.




2010 M6 Camaro full intake and exhaust, run 2 had a base tune in it, run 3 was the intake swap and the last run was the fully optimized tune with a little bit more spark advance. This is a very recent A-B test of a LS3 stock intake to a stage 2, performed on a dyno jet in S Florida.






Results will vary and each car is different, with this one performing on the higher end of the scale, but the intake was a large factor in achieving these results.

Here is a 07 A6 Vette - had a fully optimized Formato tune, re baseline the car and installed the stage 2 intake. Again, the increase in power is not simply a peak power increase but is significant through out the entire RPM range. Same day, same conditions, A vs B test.



This Car is an 07 Z06 with the following mods:
Callaway CAI, Fasterproms Ported TB and stg 1 manifold, STOCK EXH manifolds, B&B Fusion catback, Fasterproms custom tune.
Run 1 was a baseline pull with all aforementioned mods, fully optimized.
Run 6 was Stg 2 manifold and a tuning tweak, more fuel.

We were pleased to get this kind of power in weather in 90F + air temps.

Bottom line: Stage 2 over Stage 1 picked up 6 rwhp and 9 rwtq through out the rev range, and 10 and 10 in some areas.

Porting the Ls1/LS6 manifolds do not net any measurable gains, and therefore we do not do these. However, when porting the throttle body for these cars, the increase in throttle response is awesome.

A tune is not needed, especially on the LS2 GTO's, as the restriction from the stock manifold is greatest, so with the intake and tb porting you will feel the difference right away. As s/c'd cav stated, it is recommended, so that you can fully optimize the new air flow and greater plenum volume to work more efficiently.


Today at the shop we are installing and tuning two LS2 stage 2 int/tb combos, a stage 1 L99 package and tune and porting a FAST 102, tune and reinstalling.

Good times - thank you all!

Default Black Powder Coated LS3 Stage 2 Available

Just wanted to add that we have one LS3 stage 2 intake that is powder coated and available with this special, on a first come first served basis. We may do more in the future, but for now, just this one is available - it is in high gloss black and if you would like it, add just $75.00 to the special pricing.

Here are a couple of pictures:

Thank you!
