[FordMuscle]

Comp (FAST) showed this off at SEMA, looks pretty good. We hope to test it soon.

LS1 guys have been using FAST intakes with great results for a long time. glad to see FAST working on a 3V manifold as well. they are a similar intake to the LS1, so it makes sense to me.

 

[adamb258]

what is expected price?

 

[adamb258]

wow jsut saw they are arodun $800 for the LS1 manifolds, ouch

 

[bigcat]

not too bad for +40 hp increase! comparable to a CAI/tune combo. a P&P head package is easily twice that, but offers the same performance gains.

 

[JTGrant]

finally!!!

 

[adamb258]

yeah but we will see im doubting the 40+ hp, im praying im proved wrong though

 

[JTGrant]

yeah 40hp is a really high claim. I guess we will see.

 

[official_style]

i want one

 

[JTGrant]

me too

 

[bigcat]

i been begging foir this for almost as long as i have owned my car! its gonna be here soon

the projected HP is probably not RWHP, but we will have to wait and see.

 

[JTGrant]

Anyone know an approx date, besides early 07? I would also have to say we will all need a custom tune.

 

[bigcat]

need brent to get one of these as early as possible so he has tunes ready for us!

Agreed. I just hope these manifolds are less than $800.00, but I doubt it. FAST does make some great manifolds than work.

i am sure the introductory price will be outrageous. hopefully they will see the profit potential of many sales, rather than just the initial sales for big profit.

 

[mikes06gt]

yeah but if the claim of 40 hp stands it will be worth a bundle...even if it is at the flywheel...i have been wondering when one of these was going to be available

 

[JTGrant]

especailly if the claim is on a stock engine. Gains will be better you CAI, TB, P&P heads, CAMS, and exhuast work.

 

[Mike97gt]

the aftermarket seems to be really gaining steam for the 05+ cars. They seem to be skiping over the 96-04's now..

BTW I highly doubt a gain of 40+ HP on a close to stock or stock car.

 

[tom281]

Seems like alot to ask from an intake....... we'll see.

If they don't interfere with the CMCV, it looks like a tune may not even be required since it doesn't affect the air transfer function.
