Default Fast intake porting..

2002 camaro,, guys help me out.. installed a 90 mm with nick tb, and only got 7rwhp.. who does porting on these units....
224/224 cam, 4" exahust, pulley, 227 custom heads, and a great tunner must keep him (name) private..made 420 rwhp 402 rwtq. i think it should of made at least 15 rwhp..with any porting....... i feel like this intake was a waste of money....

The consenus is that Tony@AFR does the best port jobs on the fast. Anyway your HP numbers seem great for a cam that size. There probably isnt much more to be gained due to the small cam.

What is with the people on this site and their secret tuners? Maybe your tuner sucks

I wouldnt be worried about bad vibes because your setup makes good numbers IMO. Over 400 in the TQ dept is great for a cam that size.

so it would be pointless to remove the intake and send it out for porting.

Probably not, the porting that Tony does is reported to not only gain up top but it also has decent gains in low end. Its hard to say how much you would gain on your setup, especially since you run a pretty small cam. The FAST is really taken advantage of on large cam setups that have to breathe a lot.

Crap those are some serious numbers for that setup! The dyno doesn't mean everything the 8rwhp short you are talking about is almost not measurable and at those power levels you would not even feel. If your worried about wasted money I would sell your 90/90 setup they sell for good $$'s and buy the LS6 setup with ported TB, and loose 7rwhp which again you won't feel.

i know im not going to feel the 8 rwhp, it seems to me that the fast intake should have put out more hp. thats all.

thats what i mean, adverage 15-30 rwhp is what alot of cars are making....may be its the cam...

i am also going to try this set up with a procharger, so i really want to take advantage for the air flow....

and yes its a 90/90 NW

i would not have it ported yet unless you want to you are making great power and in the future when you add more mods you will see the difference in a positve way by already having the 90/90 so congrats and by the way after i ported mine i only noticed the difference from 6500 rpms and up
