New Peak Speed ported Fast 102 intake with unmodified EGR and MAP sensor holes.
Modified front of intake to include: sanded holes with 80 grit sandpaper to rough up,inserting throttle cable bracket screw nuts in captured nut openings, inserted machine throttle cable bracket screws all the way into nuts ,filled opening/holes with 3M 8235 2 part epoxy to fill holes/openings, removed machine screws after 5 minutes when epoxy first started to harden to lock nuts in,sanded epoxy level, filled rough areas with body filler, and prepped for primer. Also ground RHS casting off.
Intake after sanding recessed areas with porting cartridge rolls, and then 180 grit followed with 320 grit sandpaper for final sand on bare intake plastic runners prior to applying 2 coats of plastic adhesive, 4 coats 2k high build primer. This picture is prior to finish sanding with 400 grit sandpaper in preparation for refinishing. Refinishing was 2 coats of Dupont Chroma Base base coat followed by 3 coats of clear coat.
