Default Wilson billet bank vs FAST 102.

Curious which is the better intake for an NA build if both were the same/similar price. I can't really find much info on the Wilson billet bank.

And I understand a Marcella, will be better than the Wilson, but that isn't an option.

Why not call FAST and ask them, as the Wilson in the picture is from them as well.

Because FAST could not even tell me the height of their 92mm manifold 6 months ago when I spoke to them, I highly doubt they are going to be much help.

Understood your reasons Spec C.

I personally doubt you are going to get any accurate answer to your initial question from a member having establish a compare of any sort here...
Especially after asking which one of those two intakes is "better"...

I think the Wilson intake is about three times the price of a Fast 102.

Why not the MAST intake with MAST heads?

As I said in my first post, remove price from the equation. Does it make more power than the 102, or is nothing more than a show piece? That is what I am wondering.

To quote your first post:
"Curious which is the better intake for an NA build"...

This adjective was not making any technical sense...
Now I am interested in the answers you are going to collect.

Wilson billet manifold is im sure pretty pricey. How much power are you looking to make. Fast manifold is sufficient for 600rwhp. I would choose the RHS heads with a custom program from LMR. What exactly are you trying to accomplish with your build?

On this setup the Wilson was worse than the stock ls7 intake.
