because the fast 102 is a fairly new intake, the price on them is going to be hard to find a really good deal..considering that you have a stock motor and you arent doing a stroker or anything like that, I personally would go with a fast 92 with a 92 TB combo you can find those fairly priced because everyone seems to have an eye on the 102..also research on the EGR/AIR delete..oh and its STOCK not STALK..lol

you'll need to delete your egr and air. Not to hard, but you'll need block off plates for your stock exhaust manifolds and you'll have to have the car tuned afterward to handle the new airflow as well as remove the SES light from deleting the egr and air.

Given you're in the frozen north, it may be cheaper just to find a tuner depending on how bad the mod bug gets you and how often you plan on upgrading things...
A diablo is around 400+, then you need to convert that, then shipping and customs... They are ok for small things though. Just don't get the SLP version. Diablo has updated their handheld software to do a bit more, but SLP still uses an older software with limited functionality.
HP Tuners would probably be the better route for the long run though as you can do more, though it costs a bit more and will require some additional pieces (like a wideband sensor). Just take the time to learn it before you tweak something. In the long run, if you don't live in one of the cities this may be the best route.

Also you will need to buy LS6 coolant lines if switching from an LS1 intake to any FAST. You can get away with the LS1 coolant line with a LS6 intake if you modify the bottom of the LS6 intake.
The 78/90/92 will bolt in, the 102 will also require new fuel rails. Like mentioned already, if you plan on bolt-ons, I would recommend an LS6. H&C then pick up a FAST.

yeah Im thinking i might just go for the intake that has everyone talking which is the fast 102 and I can always buy the 102 tb after... Ill get new fuel rails and new coolant lines! so ihave read that thi 102 intake adds up to 15 hp if your lucky... but if you add a fast 102 tb is that going to increase the hp? How much hp can a guy get from upgrading to a new cam?? which job should i do first? do people do the intake first? or will the cam get me more hp? and cheaper?

so how much hp would i gain if i did the fast 102 intake and fast 102 tb... and added in a really good diablo tune? would i gain maybe 60 - 75 hp at the rear? because remember i got ram air obviosly, knn air filter, and i got not cats with an 80 series flowmaster.. the car has some snap! but i need more!!!

mitch..get out of the theory and what youve seen out of diesel's..our cars respond very well to mods, but you arent going to jump up an extra 70hp just from a tune and a fast, you need "just about" every bolt on to gain that much..and like fucter said the 80 series is holding you back..so look into either a cut out or down the road going to true duals
