FAST Intakes @ Thunder Racing...THEY'RE HERE! We received a very small batch of FAST intakes in stock today. We have a tear-down in progress and dyno-testing will commence soon. The lucky few people who will be receiving their intakes from this first batch will be receiving phone calls shortly...

OK, Here's the graph vs a stock LS1 intake. The car is a 2000 SS w/ pulley, ported tb, Borla cat-back, Whisper lid and that's it. NO other changes were made except for the manifold.
Yes, That's 20.3 horsepower & 17.5 torque!

Here's a little more testing results:
The car is a 2000 SS w/ iron block (375 ci), Stage 2 heads, big cam, all the bolt-ons, headers w/ bullet mufflers. He swapped from an LS6 intake to the FAST...no other changes were made. Before & after runs were made back to back and the intake was changed w/ the car strapped down on the dyno. Unfortunately, I don't remember the exact numbers, but the end result was a gain of 7 rwhp. I'm really curious to see if the bottleneck on these bigger motors is with the 78mm intake...possibly the 90mm intake & tb combo might be the answer for these cars? We'll be testing more as soon as we get some of the 90mm tb's in. I will post Shane's graph first thing in the morning.
