I heard from MSD that it was going to be price "comparatively" so I'd venture to guess about the same as a fast lol

That's too bad. I would think they would sell like crazy if it was a couple hundred bucks cheaper than the FAST. Hopefully it's like what the others said and it's just an MSRP price.

Hell, even at the same price, if they outperform by that much, I would have no problem forking out the cash. You have to remember, you are not only paying for the machining, but also for all the R&D.

The stock intake is awesome, no way I'd pay extra for an aftermarket plastic intake.

This guy knows what he's talking about. Why would you buy a lightweight plastic intake with smooth precisely molded runner when you can buy a 30 pound cast aluminum one with nice rough casting flash.

I'd just wish some better info was out. Chris @ Mast said they did or were putting up the graphs on their FaceBook page.

I don't have FB, so...

Talked to Chris. Well, it was supposed to be posted last week. He said they should have it on today, hopefully.
