I'd post that picture on every Fbody forum until I got a new intake. The BBK is probably the best for blowers or turbos.

You got me confused now; what intake did gain 38hp over what intake:confused??: ..I checked your setup and you have the vengeance ported unit so youre joking I guess***edit**I was lazy and tired to check the original post..I did it and its statu quo.

..About the blown Weiand, that sux big time!!

I'll just get the FAST and wait one more year to see the result sponsors will have

Wow It blew up.

I was um thinking about buying one IF it is real. I don't think so anymore. I have enough car trouble. If I got one it would blow up under 0# let alone 15.

Alright guys, I've gotten enough PM's it's time to come clean....

If anyone would do a search they would quickly realize that this intake was debuted at the 2007 (yes 2007 not 2008) SEMA show and has become the new intake of dreams of everyone.

Numerous debates have been waged, over if it's going to be better than a FAST in the midrange and how high of an rpm window will it perform etc etc etc.

Yes, I have a ported FAST that looks like this... ***SHAMELESS WHORING OF PICS***





Moral of this story is do some legwork first before beleiving some guy who's just jerking your chain. Noone asked me for dyno numbers of pics of it, just where I bought it. No one has a Weiand Street warrior except for some shop that kind of sort of did dyno testing but the numbers weren't great and hence we haven't seen the intake for sale.

Also, as for the JEGS timeline, go ahead and click buy. Wait till it gets closer to the 25/26 and see if the date doesn't get moved.

I can't believe only about 4-5 people knew Alchemist and myself were just messing with yall!!

Such gullible people we have on here!

And the Street Warrior has been on Jeg's site for a while now. 8-12 weeks ago the release was 6 weeks and now it's 2 weeks, but after 2 weeks it will once again be 6-8 weeks, which will in turn be 8-10 weeks from today, which to date is 8-12 weeks behind, for an accumulative total of....................ouch, my head hurts.....


BTW Alchemist
What fuel rails are those, pretty kick *** polished. I'm painting my FAST black as well but keeping the FAST w/ box and 92mm probably in white...ish.

The rails are Nasty billet rails that I bought from a member on here used. I polished them up so we'll see how well they hold up.

Sorry, a simple search and some reading would have shown that this is the unicorn of performance parts.

Maybe it will in fact be released in a few weeks, but I doubt it.

Is 38 what you gained from your fast, or did you pull that number out of your *** as well?
