Mine didnt like 16psi. There have been a couple threads on here complaining about the FAST in similar boost ranges. On the other hand, there are many people running that much boost and even more on composite intakes, so I think its just isolated freak cases.. Still, my luck automatically places me in those groups tho it seems

Super Vic here...but that sumbitch is tall (note how the TB is rotated 180* so the IAC don't hit the cowl hood I have)

Wow! looks good, but he had to completely jettison the windshield wipers.. Not a feasible option for me unfortunately.

But it fits, and also fits nicely on a GTO and a G8 without hacking up the car.

And don't be a baby ditch the wipers and keep a bottle of Rain X on the passenger seat for those cloudy days

I'm also not willing to cut that deep into the car and went with the Victor JR. and didn't have to cut anything.

Here is mine:

I like my Beck. Looks cool, held 26psi and fit without having to cut the plastic shroud.
Don't really have a good installed pic yet but you can kind of see the fit here.


And this one shows it better.
