read the title of his thread bud, he wants a 450 hp daily driver hes got better ways to get there other then spending a grand + on a 102. hes not going for 600whp in which case you need that 102.

I did read the title, and if you knew anything about these intakes you would know that the LS6 is crap compared to a FAST once you add a cam, especially heads and a cam like the OP will have to do.

People were making 450rwhp with driveable combos a long time before everyone just had to have a FAST intake.

I agree you can make it with an LS6. But If you do a 102 with the supporting intake mods, some good heads and a medium cam, that will be better than an LS6, large cam and mild heads for DDing.

No one said it isn't better. If you do an LS7 with a baby cam, that will be better for reliability and daily driving. It would also make about as much sense as putting a $1200 intake and TB on a motor that only needs 450hp. And I call BS on just about any intake making up for cam choice. Maybe an ITB setup. LOL

Really, because I know several cars running 22x/23x cams along with a FAST that are making the same if not more than cars running something along the lines of a MS4 and LS6 intake.

Bottom line op do not get hung up on dyno numbers. You know how many 600hp cars ive seen run 12s?

with the fast intake bringing in all the air wouldn't I need bigger injectors/fuelrail which is just more money I don't need to spend.. A fast would be nice but $1200 later woulsn't be that nice for only 15 hp
