I doubt the wait will be worth it. It will be nice to have another plastic intake to choose from. If it is better than the LS6 intake, then great.
I too made the mistake of going with a FAST 92 on my MS4, ported LS6 heads, z06 85mm MAF combo and can honestly say I would have been just as well off sticking with the LS6 intake/ported TB and stock ported MAF.
The FAST 90/92 IMO is just overkill for 99% of the 346 LS1s out there. However, it should do very well on my new 416 combo, so it's not wasted money - just money spent prematurely.
Anyone looking to reuse the stock TB and run a plate setup with this new intake will have a problem - with the angle of the lid/air intake setup and brackets. Just food for thought.

Couldn't wait any more...another 92 FAST has been bought. I would've loved to have gone different or something. I still may sand down the fast to make it smooth and paint it.

Mast Motorsports already did a very thorough test on both the L92 and LS1 versions from Weind

The untouched ugly truck manifold outperforms the LS6 manifold on 5.0L Daytona Prototype engines which make max power ~7000. I believe those engines make the kind of power most 5.7 and 6.0 LS engine guys would be proud of.
Runner length should be pretty easy to measure @ PRI.
