HAHA! No, against that guy I ran 11.98 @ 120mph. It was a Ford GT with headers, Nitto 555r's and a Tubi Exhaust. It was fun! He would have beat me if the track was a little longer he was gaining on me but I crossed the finish line first. It was nice to meet you! We will all have to go again!

The reason I'm asking is that I'm curious if you know how much of a gain at the track just the intake manifold gave you.

Thanks in advance,

Hello Christopher,

I gained 2/10's and 2mph with the ported intake. I went a few weeks ago with the exact same setup only changing the manifold.

This last time I went I put on the DR's and it got me into the 11's. I'd strongly recomend this setup since it is relatively cheap and it does work.

That's exactly what I was hoping to hear. I've been looking for something to help me hit the 10's (I got really close at 11.014) but without having to spend a ton of money doing it and that sounds like it'll get me there.

Thanks,
Christopher

Yeah, even if you get half the gains I got you will be there. Good Luck!

Not yet. Trying to do one mod at a time so I know what does what. I am looking forward to doing it though. I will post results when I do.

The Ported FAST is by far the best manifold for overall driveability and all around TQ.
I have a few links and dyno results here.

Whether it is a ported Factory LS2 intake or a FAST intake I can help you get real results. Let me know what I can do for you!
