Guys thinking about trying to find a used fast intake for my car along with throttle body. I have the ls6 with stock throttle body but seeing if its worth to get a fast 92 or 102. I have a stock bottem end, tsp ms4cam, tsp 1 7/8 longtubes, ypipe, magnaflow catback, kn intake, better valve springs, ls7 lifters, high volume oil pump, not saying this adds performance just letting you know what I have. Before I go make an appointment for a retune id like to know if I should get the fast intake and matching throttle body. I don't have any future plans with the car minus some appearance and rims and tires and a tubular kmember but that's it. Its just making over 400rwhp but if I can squeeze some more out of it I would love too. what do you guys think thanks

My opinion is to to go for it, but wait for a good used deal...preferably ported. Let me give you myself as an example....bought a used ported Fast 90 with TB, injectors and fuel rails for $600. Since I didn't need the rails or injectors I went ahead and sold them for $200 and then sold my LS6 intake and TB for $400. So basically I didn't spend a dime here. Realistically you should see a 10-20 hp gain depending on if it's ported or not. Plus better throttle response as well

I wouldn't just take a fast out the box and bolt it on over a LS6 intake for the price you pay for one......
Now taking a fast intake that's been ported (loving on) would be worth it but that's my opinion......

If youre not short for change go for it. I just did a 92/92 swap on my 99. Granted I came from an ls1 intake so the improvement was much greater than it wouldve been if i had a ls6 intake. Just be prepared because a fast intake can nickle and dime you. You obviously need a tb, if you get a 102 youll need fuel rails, you need to get the button head valley bolts, as well as the ls6 style coolant crossover if you dont already have it.

thanks for the helps guys, ill deff be looking for a fast 90 or 92 setup and get all the parts I need. I think I have the ls6 style coolant crossover already.

Think i'd invest just a small amount more into some PRC stage 1 heads for some real tangible gains.

Or leave it and invest in a 75-100 shot of a N2O.

If I spray it with anything I heard my bottem end will blow to pieces. Don't feel like doing a head swap. much easier to swap intake for a little extra hp and to be safe and worry about a new engine down the road with heads

You could easily and safely hit your car with a 100 shot...heads or not. It's all in the tune and running the proper accessories

I don't believe 75-100whp on top of what you already have would do any harm whatsoever. Not sure why you would say that.

I realize it's much easier to change the intake, but I was making a suggestion based purely on money. Dollar for dollar, a head swap(or sending your heads out) is only a bit more expensive and you're going to get real hp. Not just a small blip on the graph.

Money > Ease of install for me.

Not my money either way, do your thing, just making suggestions.

Agreed!!! Squeeze on that ****...

100 shot shouldn't hurt a thing... If done right with a dedicated fuel system and correct accessories it shouldn't hurt a thing. If you take your time, you can build your own under a grand.

FAST is worth it.

and a 100 shot is nothing on these motors as long as its setup properly.
