Well, it looks like the car isn't making it to CSP tomorrow to get dropped off. Waited 2wks for my engine guy to get Fast 92mm intake and Ls2 ported TB back to me. Tried gettn everything installed tonight, but hit some snags.

When installing a FAST 92 on the LS2 cts-v, How are you guys relocating the MAP sensor from the front of the intake back to the rear?

It appears the front of the Fast 92 has no real provision for it, so is there an extension harness somewhere available? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not finding much on google, looks just LS1 to LS2 ext harnesses. Other thing was I have no directions or how-to to go by, are those metal brackets on each side of the factory LS2 intake not re used for the fast 92?

Harness is plenty long enough. I'll snap a photo in a few minutes when I head down to the car .

Hope these help. I'll grab a pic of the map sensor in a few minutes.

I'm thinkn I may just have to unwrap the harness and pull back the MAP connection to its relocated position. If I wake up early and get this done, I prolly still can make it and drop the car off,lol.

Also, I see these factory brackets(last pic) on the stock intake aren't getting reused?

Its also obvious I didn't get all the hardware with this used purchased FAST 92. I wasn't given the valley cover bolts, I sourced em locally 3hrs ago. And I'm missing those allen bolts you have holding down the fuel rails to the spacer kit. I wonder if I can keep the stock studs that came out of the factory intake? Looks like you used em for mock up in the first pic

Your going to need to change the fuel line also.

Mine wouldn't reach properly.

You can ziptie the other brackets at the back.

Looks good. Did you delete your canister purge line?

Got it. And thank you, big help. I'm still confused on where the extra wire length came from to move MAP sensor to rear. Did you unloom it and isolate it? Extend the existing wires? I see racetronix makes an extension harness(http://www.racetronix.biz/itemdesc.a...2DMSEH&eq=&Tp=), TSP sells them too. Also I like the look of the fuel line, but was it necessary or just to delete the ugly Z shaped supply in?

On my car it had exactly enough wire to make it to the back .

I took pics of how I routed the wire. It will reach if you remove the wires from the bundle .

Just follow the wire back in my pics .

If you go through my post I linked you to, the part numbers are in it for a plug and play fuel line. (And a big thanks to the folks who helped me with the part numbers!)

The fuel line would not work with my intake. Had to get a new one that was a little bit longer, and eliminated the ugly z brackets at the same time.

Just got done droppn car off. Thanks Byron, late night help last night was huge. Woke up early n finished strong before the 2hr drive to CSP. Headers n xpipe goin on before tuning.
I soiderd n extended my MAP, was easy. Everything else went right bak with ease. Car fired up n ran great. No CELs, or driveability issues. It defly felt louder n gruntier with the intake swap. Dare i say "vtec" lol. No obvious gains down low, felt lazy, but 30* on the way out there, she was loving it top end.

Awesome! That intake after tuning really wakes up the car. Not a life altering ammount, but it improved drivability across the board for me.

Let us know how it does!

So, I ended up not needing these adapters for the factory fuel rail crossover. But I ordered em instinctively when I was still figuring out the install of my Fast 92 intake. I spent $22 iirc, and already have extra -6AN fittings and braided hose from my Nova build. So I'm gunna delete the ugly part of the fuel rail crossover as soon as I get my V back. Heres a pic with the part #s, courtesy of Byrons thread.

I bet with the FAST you're closer to 375-380, assuming this is a dynojet.
