Default How much boost has anyone put though a FAST Manifold ??

Is there a know boost limit to the FAST manifold. I see a lot of people using a old Carb stile manifold with a 1000cfm throttle body, is this because of high boost engines ? or is the front mounted intake less desirable ??

Cheers

There is a really hot topic it seems as of late, there is a lot of threads recently that have been discussing this. To sum it up, there is no real significant gain unless you are running more than 1000rwhp, and even than you may not gain anything. It depends on overall setup, and some people do it anyway because they just look good.

Just to prove what I am talking about, this Twin Turbo is making 1100rwhp and is using the STOCK LS6 Intake. Check it out.
