FAST LSX intake with stock cubes? I was planning on purchasing a FAST 90mm intake and tb,and was wondering if I will get a jump in horsepower over my ls6 I already have? I have heard you will not see any difference with a stock cubic inch Ls1,which mine is for now at least?

The FAST intake and tb are a good investment for the future but stay with the LS6 until you do at least heads and cam swap, otherwise you might not get the performance difference your looking for. Just my opinion!!

I am running a Fast 90 intake with Nick williams TB, Longtubes, catback on stock heads and cam. I purchased all of the heavy bolt ons first in anticipation of some hand worked AFR heads, Custom TR Cam and future Forced induction.
I lost a little power down low, SOTP power but noticeable, but i gained uptop..i can break the tires loose at the top of second from a low rpm dig about everytime. Its a lot of money for what i got im sure, but this is an ongoing project inwhich every little bit helps.
