I have no personal experience with it but I've always read on the boost threads that the FAST intakes are not worth it for FI. May change your mind since you said your planning on FI later.

The Procharger setup will be way down the road, and I'm itching bad to make upgrades now.
Guys, I'm going FAST 102/102 setup, done deal. Read this. It's from Jamie R, who has a thread in here. He switched from a ported FAST 92mm to a ported FAST 102mm.
Alright the car hit the rollers Tuesday night and I cant believe the results and my bud that has tuned the car both times cant even believe it.
495/419 from the previous best of 431/396 !!
Here is the weather difference between the pulls last year and this year.
91.8 degrees 55% humidity 29.38 pressure last year
80.7 degrees 59% humidity 29.28 pressure this year
Average Numbers from before to now
256 rwhp 271 trq
335 rwhp 378 trq
These pulls were on the same dyno by the same tuner both times. The only thing I can think of that has made the jump this big is the little things done that were never dynoed after the initial tune last year, like the swap from 1 3/4 headers to 1 7/8 and the exhaust being opened up right after the merge collector. This is also a Speed Density tune this time because the maf was eliminated. Well theres the results and I'll post the pics of the sheets side by side shortly. My gains are very high and not typical so maybe this was weather, previous mods, and then the ported 102 shined with all that, I don't know and Im still amazed. The car does feel faster now after driving it home yesterday.

Mine made 440/407 with ls6 intake and 1.750 headers through a stock muffler system. 231/242 BTR camshaft and TFS heads.
I'm telling you it picked up 30whp over the entire power curve. With the 92, so those results are on par with what I've felt.
I like you have to be doing something mod wise all the time. Bought a cutout to install this weekend.

I started on my FAST 102 intake install yesterday and sure enough the intake hits the water pump. Does the LS2 water pump clear the intake without grinding? If not the LS2 pump is there any pump that will clear without grinding?

From everything I've read, you can grind the stock water pump to make it fit. I have not read anything about having to take too much off to where the water pump is a liability. I know one guy on here took too much off and he was afraid it was too thin, so he bought a nice aftermarket electric water pump, but they are like $700.00 +. If I were you, I'd try taking some material off the stock water pump first. Just keep test fitting the intake/TB very frequently so you don't accidently take too much off.
I will be selling my D-1sc hoses, intercoolers, 8 rib pulleys and belts, and polished and poly collector. Not sure of the price. I modified and used the brackets for my F1.
If you are interested, send me an offer and I will let you know.
