fast 90, is it worth the $$ on a H/C car.
guess you didn't detect the sarcasm...
Actually, you are.
The good news is the ported LS2 manifolds are showing very similar gains to the ported Fast90 manifolds for about $400 less.

It was worth it to me, but everyone's different.... some say yes, some say no. It's really about matching all the parts to work well TOGETHER.
With the old set up(LS6 intake/stock ported TB), the car made 435/405 on two year old TEA S1.5 5.3's, and a lil' old F11 cam(228/230, 585/595 112+3*)through an M6/12 bolt/4.56's/28" slicks/supporting bolt on's with FULL exhaust and FULL belt.
After the the swap, it went 457.3/423.9 on a safe(a tad fat)N2o tune w/nothing else changed. That's a gain of 22.3 rwhp/18.9 rwtq.
On a side note.... the HP peaked at 6200(I've advanced the cam a hair)and held level all the way to 6900. The TQ. went from 340 @ 2600, to 400 @ 3900, and peaked at 423.9 @ 4600 before falling slowly to 350 @ 6900.
Your results "may" vary-

Also, I love your sig. LMAO.

Now when you say a fat tune, do you mean rich in fuel???
And also did you have the fast port matched to the 5.3's???
I would be stoked to hit 460 or so. But I know there is no garentee.
I also know the set up will cost 1150, but I will be able to sell the ls6 int and bo-white ported tb for about 500 bucks so that will be like a core charge. Leaving me only paying 650 for the swap.

Dyno numbers don't mean **** anyway, its all about the ET, and I don't see the FAST intake being able to knock off maybe more than a tenth.. is that worth 1150 bux. Hell no.

I have a ls1 intake and a ported TB. Instead of going the ls6 route for 400. I figure spend 1200 and get a larger gain and i can still sell the TB for a few bucks. If you want 450 you will probably need it anyway. I have a moderate cam that leads me to believe the 90/90 is more of a gain.
Ok Jeremy, heres the deal. You buy this. If you gain more than 25 RWHP and 20 RWTQ with NO OTHER CHANGES, I will make a thread in CICC admitting I was wrong. If you don't get those numbers, you have to proclaim my car as being the sickest PIMP ride in central Indiana... in your sig... on every message board you visit, and you must include your sig in every thread/post you make.

Further "Combo" with attention to detail. The detail really comes in when matching your components and sorting out internet myths. Patrick's is a shining example.
