FAST 92/92 questions
If you say so Monmouth, but I know that isn't true fella. After I put longtubes on my TA, A/F went to 16.3-1 at WOT on my old motor. Car initially only made 307whp and 314wtq with longtubes before tune. Prior to longtubes it made 312/317. TA made 335/345 after running 12.6-1 A/F with longtubes. A tune does matter bro.

I just started the install, and the instructions says take it apart to check if the seal is still there. So I took it apart and there is some black silicon on it. Should I clean those spots up and put silicon on it again? Or should I just remove the rubber gasket can replace the whole thing with silicon?

well I finally got it done. almost, just got to put the smooth bellows and forward back on. had to bend those coolant pipes on the front. I didnt expect to do that. And throttle cable needs to be adjusted, but other than that, I think I am good to.

Well I just drove the car to work to test for leaks , and guess what. It is leaking from the throttle body cam and the MAP sensor. I know how to fix the MAP sensor, but what can I do about the throttle body?

Has anyone else ever smoke tested their throttle intake and throttle body combo? Cause I gave fast a call and they said they never had this issue before. I sent them this video of me smoke testing my car.

I have contacted FAST. They sent me a new throttle body. I installed it yesterday. And took it to work today. Put the smoke machine on it. and find out it is leaking from the same spot. Has anyone else on this board ever tested their cars with a smoke machine before? Cause I find it quite hard to believe that 2 brand new throttle bodies would be leaking from the same spot
