V. nice, but you'll get it cheaper from the US at the moment. US seems to be about $800 (500 quid) but don't forget you'll need an upgraded TB as well.

Yeah seen them on there 2. there very nice but think u wouls have to do cam aswell as headers.

[rickf_uk]

Headers defiantly, cam I'm not so sure of. One thing that will need to be done though and thats a re map, preferably mafless if you're to get the most out of a new set of lungs like that. I'm very tempted with this as the next mod but then someone put the idea of the harrop hurricane into my head. Only problem...big bucks.

Yeah they come from the US anyway!
So buy them from there. Also dont bother unless you have heads and cam already. The stock intake is fine. You can just port your throttle and you should be fine.
When you have heads and cam then the Fast will definately add more power. But its expensive for the gains. Best gains come from a cam, then the heads.

I think there is a couple of cam projects on the go that aim to meet emissions and give maximum power, so keep your eyes peeled for results.

Yeah thats what i thought. If i was gonna put this on the car i would need at least the cam done. Iam sure you would also have to do the headers to support the cam change and also the extra air into the inlet manafold.

I have been on the ls1 forum and they were saying the same port the manafold or change up 2 a 80-85mm at most but its a small increase in power but better throttle responce.

There is so much you can do with theses cars where do you start?

Think we all know ringram`s answer to that but he could be right it does look like the biggest power gain for your money.
