New intake at SEMA: MSD Airforce
More air is more power... If the Fast shows gains on a stock motor, I don't know why the MSD wouldn't. Then again, I don't know ANYONE that uses a Fast on a stock motor to begin with. It's going to be at least a cammed car, if not heads as well.
If it gains more than a Fast on an LS7, and is cheaper... Just seems like a no brainer to me.

I'm stating that this intake will most likely provide gains over a fast on a larger motor or one with a badass set of heads. However mist of us want to know what they would be on a cam only 346 car. Which is something no one has tested. I've only seen ls7 cases with heads or even cam only ones. Either way they flow way more out of the box than any cathedral head. My bet is it will be minor differences with stock heads and then be worth it on more radical set ups. Who knows I may eat my words
I agree with you that you'll see bigger gains with this intake on a heads and cam LS1 over say a cam only setup, but I still think the gains on a cam only setup will be pretty significant. People have proven it with the various FAST intakes, so I don't see this intake being any different. Like I said way early in this thread, why would a company make a new product created to go head to head with FAST and not make it to outperform it. Smart business would be to create and test and keep making changes until your product is the better product. Time will tell of that is true.
I completely agree with what you're saying. I meant more around the lines of power is made in the intake RUNNER if the intake itself is not a restriction. This runner is quite different than a run of the mill Fast though, albeit the new runners now available might make it a moot point.
If it's cheaper than a Fast, and even putting up IDENTICAL numbers... Well...

And, to add to my point, I doubt it's coincidence that FAST all of the sudden came out with these different length interchangeable runners. Obviously, they were under some pressure to come out with something that's going to at least be on the same level as the new MSD intake.

It would be nice to see the numbers by the other companies that tested this intake. I already bit the bullet on Mamo's 220s and now I am waiting on my intake decision. Of course I do have plenty of time to decide thank goodness.
