Honestly? Not too well, haha. but i he was having ***-loads of problems with the clutch/PP/etc.

Really good guy and family though! He was pissed and cussing about 80% of the weekend and making pass after pass after pass.....

Me...I make 4 passes, brake the bellhousing in half on my A3, and get drunk and have a blast the rest of the weekend....hahaha


I think he did eventually get it straightened out though(thanks to alot of help from Tick Perf) and ran a new best though! I think it was a high 11? Must have been a stock c.i. cam only car with stock heads i think. It was on slicks and skinnies though (m6 car) off a 2-step.

Unfortunately there's plenty of us vette guys that pay $700-$1200 for LT's/ORX just to get that extra 20RWHP Of course I got mine used for MUCH less than that!

Thanks man. Il hit solid 11's wich is my overall goal with this setup no problem. And if I get a lot of **** for losing to a guy with a fast who runs a tenth faster......I'll take the money I saved on the heads and Intake to buy a very nice Spray kit and look back and shake my head.

Until you have a nitrous backfire and wish you had the burst panels of the FAST.

i gained 35rwhp/10rwtq OVER with a ported FAST 90/90 over the Ls6 intake and stock TB (non P&P)...

let's see bought 90/90 for $900 the previous owner installed, started, but 0 road miles, and sold the Ls6 intake I had for $350. so for $550 dollars I feel it was worth it. oh and this was with the 224 cam and Ls6 Stage II heads already on the car. this was a simple intake/TB swap and retune...

Were you on the same dyno? Holy cow! Your telling me you gained 35rwhp over what you did with the ls6 intake! How much did you gain with the LS6? 10? Thats like 45whp from just the intake??? IDK man....Somthings not adding up.....thing even the FAST users will back me up on this one...that cant be rite....if it is....im very impressed.

here's some reading for you (my write-up):
https://ls1tech.com/forums/appearanc...tons-pics.html

it all adds up. same dyno..

even took it over to LG Motorsports the same day with only the drive time between the two shops and showed gains of 30rwhp/5rwtq. no BS there...

now, i guess if you want to split hairs over a +/- 5rwhp/rwtq difference between 2 dynos, then feel free. considering the multiple varialbes in regards to dynos, the gains are solid as shown between the two, respectively...

most people will/have said these results arent typical and i agree, however there are other individuals out there who have had the similar results i have. regardless, these people are impressed. its all about purchasing and using components that compliment each other.

i found that for my application the Ls6 intake was my choking point. i changed that. for me and my experience, the Ls6 was a waste of time and money. im happy that i went with the FAST 90/90...

I guess to me what i learned is get the best, because I GUARENTEE YOU in time you will begin questioning "I wonder how much is sitting on the table not having a fast 90/90?". And before you know it, you will be in the classified's looking for one. I'm not a Fast nut-swinger by any means. Hell, I could care less if you run a truck intake. Just don't look like a close-minded fool(you were in the beginning of this thread) insinuating people are wasting money on a fast, or "only spending the extra $$$ because of a name"

Good luck with it bro!
Tim

PS-->I need the money! hahahaha
nicely put tim!

bet you dont need it as much as me.. haha.. or i could be wrong!

To each there own I guess, But all these people who have a FAST, understand that at the dino and the track.... its that little "extra" that made you faster than the guy next to you.... with an LS6.
true true... said over and over.... those cams NEED TO BREATH!!!!

through an a4 with stock heads and went from 323s to 410s i picked up 35rwhp..

if i had heads it would have been a little more increase with the intake, and the 410s robbed a little more hp than the 323s... im also an a4...
so a 40rwhp increase with a god sized cam and heads, i would say is very believable..

Not to mention I don't think that even though it is capable of more...I would never need to use it.

Didnt mean to seem stuburn...just rite of the bat I get the so typical SEARCH button comment and it's like...uhh I am asking a direct ? here. Thanks again.
Dude..... MS3 is KNOWN for LOW bottom and and HIGH topend power.

Put down the crack pipe.........

Thats almost a quote worthy BS line.

Yea, MS3 power comes on quick and doesnt need huge room up top. You REALLY need to learn more about this cam you are installing. You have it 100% backwards.
