A nice intake along with this, some LT headers, and dual cutouts would make awesome power. Simply bolting on the manifold without letting it breath and exhaust better is nonsense. The people who buy this will already have LT headers and a nice intake setup. All mods work together to amplify each other.

If you go to the FAST website, there's a manifold application guide. For the LS3, to use stock fuel rails, you'll need to get the FAST fuel injector spacer kit (#146025-KIT), or you can replace the fuel rail and get the FAST billet fuel rail kit(#146027-KIT).

This intake is really not made to be a bolt on mod to a stock vehicle.

This intake will really shine when combined with other mods like LTs, Cam, CAI, etc.

If you are looking to just buy this intake as your only single mod, then I have some advice for you....dont waste your money.

Its unfortunate that a stock camaro is our only test vehicle at this point....but its all we have.

Andy with ADM, I dont know you.....but maybe we can work something out. Let me talk to my business partner today and see what he thinks. You may get a call from me later today.

Nickey Chicago has been testing this intake both in the prototype stages as well as the finished product, for Comp Cams/Fast.

We installed the first production intake on our Stage II naturally aspirated 600fwhp Nickey Super Camaro.

This intake is also part of our Stage I 500fwhp package.

Stage I

Fast Intake
CAI
Nickey edition headers/ and X-pipe by ARH to stock mufflers
Nickey Specs tune by FLP

Stage II

all the above; plus
Nickey Spec CNC'd heads by Wegner Motor Sports
Nickey Spec Cam by Comp Cams

We will be posting dyno results soon.

This intake is an integral component of a Hi-Performance 5th generation application, which works extremely well with the other modifications mentioned above.

We also use a Fast Intake for our Stage III naturally aspirated LS7 based 427ci 700 fwhp package. This is a different part number as the LS7 heads are nor the same as the LS3 heads.

Cool.

Spectacle Solutions did some R&D work for FAST at their facility here in Memphis during early production as well.

Bone stock 2010 Camaro SS. Stock 90mm TB. No tuning.

Back to back comparison. Made a baseline pull, swapped intakes, and made final pull. To Comp Cams/ FASTs credit, these gains are actually more than they claimed in their advertising (14/11 flywheel power)

Just under 14rwhp gain peak to peak.
Right at 11rwtq gain peak to peak.

The gains are higher throughout the band. Max gains were 15rwhp and 15rwtq in several places throughout the curve.

overall IMO decent gains for a stock vehicle. however I do not believe this intake is being allowed to perform up to its potential on a stock vehicle. Again that is only my opinion, others may think differently.

As soon as we have a modded car to do some testing on, we will give you an update.

Thanks.

Great job guys looks awesome! I'll let ya know what it makes on my engine dyno!

Whats nice about these results is the numbers look reasonable for a stock car. Sometimes shops post low numbers for a baseline prior to installing something. I've had 5 cars here that made within 3-4hp of this as a baseline!

Great job guys!!
