It looks nice. Was not sure how I would feel about braided line but not bad at all. Sure makes your job easier, as well as making changing jets easier too.

nice work Dave. I do have a question and this is for anyone who knows the answer. Why did FAST still make the "hole" for the AIR tube behind the TB? and why didn't they just make it look smooth around that area, it's got all those...cups, for a lack of a better word? every person I've seen use this intake doesn't have that tube anymore so why even put it on there

Probably because if the car came with EGR, it is supposed to always have EGR in order to pass emissions. Fast just gives you the option.

Robert, I agree... But you know you never see one of these intake with the hardlines done one them... I wonder what these intake would look with the hardline.. I would recommend keeping the rail bracket, since that plastic intake might have trouble holding up the weight of the rail and noids.. But I think its a clean look.. And the beauty of the parts, HOW can you miss that... lol

The hard line kits look nice also.But the braided hose makes the jet change much easier.

Ok Dave, which one do you prefer based on the looks department. The one you would put on your custom engine bay car.

Dave , driver side nx rail wont fit there .
For the vette's it needs to move forward till the solenoid is inline with the back of the driver side fuel rail .
Same with the passenger side .

I put new aeromotive rails on my car today and its a tight fit behind the fuel rails and a solenoid surely wont fit


I even had to bend a metal plate just so the rail would go on the drivers side .
And with that plate removed there is only about a 1/2" more room .
I had to move the feed port to the other side of the motor because there wasnt enough room for the fittings .
