So that 10% more than a fast intakes gains. Is that 10% of total engine power (impressive) or 10% of the FAST's gains (not quite as impressive)?

Either way it's still a myth that I want to believe in but I'm starting to feel like this is akin to Santa Claus...

We are completing aproduction filter test of the latest filter we had custom made to our specs by Green for “street use” as of this Post. If we are happy with the final test data, the system is ready.

This system covers the 2012-2015LS-3, LS-7 and ZL-1 Camaro vehicles
System has been designed and tested to handle anything from a stock LS-3 to a 1000 rear wheel HP and 500 cu/ inch LSX!
It does not require custom tuning on a stock vehicle.
Will it work on the 2010? I been waiting since Baytown debut.

I received these emails today. I am copying and posting both. Sounds interesting to me.

"We have stayed quiet to give ourselves the time needed to build and fine tune all of the production tooling . We have been running pre-production units to check all of the tolerances on "real" production parts vs rapid prototype parts or short run test shots.



All will be updated very soon.

We did "NOT" get the Patent needed , so we had to re- apply with an altered design. We are confident that this one will pass, so much so that we are already having the tooling produced ​. Its a very critical component because it balances both banks and allows the system to use one OEM throttle body.

There are 6 manifolds not "one" we will be updating everyone on all of them very shortly.

These include some purpose race applications.

So the patent is on the balancing mechanism between the two plenums. I understand that Edelbrock had the same problem. Also I can understand why they are waiting on the patent in this case.

Well, I'm still waiting. Fortunately/Unfortunately I recently had to spend $4K on my dogs knee... That's the bulk of what was intended for the Camaro. So I'm a little behind schedule financially.

This way you guys will get to run it and tell me if it's worth a damn... LoL
