I ported my FAST 90 and then painted the FAST & WILSON, red-white & blue and it turned out great looking. Cant wait to see the motor in the car!

Just hit it with spray paint and then go over the letters with a paint pen.

I used regular old satin Krylon on mine and it holds up fine.

thanks guys will do. prob end up picking up one locally here in town, and just hitting it with a piece of sandpaper real quick and going straight to painting in. moral of the story, if you want it done right, either do it yourself, or pay out the ***.

small update and a few questions to answer for people


cheapest price I can find is 775 new in box on classifieds if you want to count that. and i see it quite often.


the cheapest sponsor price is ws6project.com as usual. price there is 839 on the fast 102 and 330 on the nick williams cable 102 tb.

I ended up choosing Vengeance Racing, and got the 102/102 combo painted gloss black with silver lettering everywhere accept the R. comes with fuel rails and gaskets and is a better bang for the buck than what the other sponsors currently have offered. plus, one look at there paint jobs and youll be willing to spend a few extra dollars. its a nice *** piece. oreilly auto parts has the TPS for 31 dollars.

I cannot say for sure on the 102mm but most def on the 92. It only makes sense that they would do the 102mm as well. The primer stock color is just an engine bay killer on 98% of cars.

Here is an example of a fast 102 in the plain form (if it does indeed come in black) vs one that has been painted by the great team over at Vengeance Racing.



add some silver and red letters and a set of red fuel rails and some stainless steel braided lines and you have yourself a serious looking engine bay in no time flat. I think I'd like to do something with my Coil Packs too.

Had mine powder coated SOM. It wasn't cheap but I know it's never coming off.
