Sweet! I ordered my LSX through Thunder back in the fall

Prolly a bit farther down on the list to get an intake from this initial shipment, but at least I know I should be getting closer

Can't wait to see the numbers!

Why didn't they AT LEAST cast that thing in RED plastic or something?!?!?

I'm definitely interested in the performance gains though!

Get me one by Friday and I'll dyno it on Saturday at Nitro Dave's...

I too am awaiting the numbers, to see if it'd be worth it.

Is the TB bolt pattern for a the 90mm one the same bolt pattern as stock, or say a big LT1 TB?

Angie, what does it say on that 2nd runner, the one behind the FAST runner? Just curious. They sure look cool, I like the two-tone

Ok, Here's the results of the first car we are testing it on....This is Jason99T/A's car and he will post his mods below...basically, it's a cam/stock heads car w/ bolt on's that already had an LS6 intake manifold. Two more cars will be tested this afternoon....

Hm, 13rwhp/12.5rwtq, but the nice thing is that it picked up power EVERYWHERE. I'm pretty content with that

Was this over an LS6 or LS1 intake?

The mods on my car now are:

- rebuilt 346ci shortblock (stock pistons/rods/crank)
- JE rings, Federal Mogul bearings, ARP rod bolts, ARP mainstuds
- stock 241 LS1 heads
- '02 LS6 cam
- Comp 918s/TR 7.400" pushrods
- Mac headers w/ ORP
- Hooker catback
- ASP pulley
- Whisper lid
- ported TB
- FAST 78mm intake manifold

All runs were through the Hooker catback and full accessories.

I think the intake is well worth the money!! My car is pretty lightly modded. I can't wait to see what it will do on an aggressive 346ci heads/cam setup and the larger motors! We will be testing it on a bolt on car next which currently has just a lid, Borla, ASP pulley, TR ported TB, and a LS1 intake. Then, it will be installed on a 370ci iron block which is running a LS6 intake. More dyno numbers to follow!

It doesn't get any better than trying new stuff out!

I am about to go pull the muffler off and put the shortbelt on. I want 400rwhp with stock heads and this "stock" cam.

Different days, different dynos,etc. Plus, my A/F ratio was close to a full point richer than when I dynoed previously. That's where the power went.

Same day, same dyno is the only way to test new products.
