Default ICT billet vs FAST 102?

So I got offered to trade my LS6 set up for this:

http://www.ictbillet.com/ls1-cathedr...ct-billet.html

Anyone have any experience with these or know anything about them? I was planning on a FAST 102 but I can get this as an even trade to what I have already. Would I get any benefits of running this?

BTW I did a search and could find hardly nothing on it on LS1tech. Just an idea have not pulled any triggers. anyone have anything?

Looks interesting, but I'm betting it's not as good as a Fast. Maybe I'm wrong though

Same intake as the other 30 knockoffs that were made before it. ICT just resells them as their own.

It seriously underperforms the FAST, and this is coming from someone who thinks the FAST is a waste of money.

I was thinking more or less the same thing, I just don't have any data or anyone to speak from experience either. I wonder if it's even better than my LS6 intake.

How have you not seen the Holley intake test?

Here is the stock LS1 intake vs the ebay Fabricated intake. It actually makes less power/torque than the stock LS1 up to 5300 RPM on a cammed 6.0, and less than a stock LS6 intake up to 6000 RPM.



Here is the FAST 102 vs the LS1 on the same engine.

Since it appears I'm not allowed to edit my posts anymore, I'll have to double post to fix the link on that last one.

On boosted applications the LS1 intake has been into the 7s and 8s in the quarter mile at well over 150-160. You don't need anything more than that if you are looking at a $600 "fabricated" intake.
