How much HP does a FAST 102 intake add?
Testing on a stock LS3 engine with a Big Mouth 102mm Throttle Body™ produced gains of 14+ horsepower and 11+ ft/lbs of torque at the flywheel over the stock intake. The LSXR™ 102mm Intake Manifold features a three-piece modular design that allows easy disassembly and porting.
Are FAST intake worth the money?
If you’re a crafter with a little more money to spend on your build, the FAST intake could absolutely be worth it for you. When it comes to the more expensive aftermarket composite intakes, the FAST intake is the most popular for a reason.
Are LS3 heads good?
Given that the stock LS3 heads flow more than 315 cfm and are capable of supporting over 650 hp on the right application, improving performance takes not only a good set of aftermarket heads, but also one heck of a test engine. The more air through the engine, the more power out.
What is the rod mod on LS3?
During the “Rod-Mod” process, we take the LS3 intake manifold and install radius bars lengthwise in the plenum. Through research and development, we have learned that air does not like moving over sharp turns – it creates unwanted turbulence.
How much HP does a Tbss intake manifold add?
Equipped with the TBSS intake, the power numbers increased to 473 hp at 6,800 rpm and 419 lb-ft at 5,300 rpm. The TBSS intake improved the power output from 4,500-7,000 rpm.
What injectors does a Tbss have?
The TBSS intake utilizes injectors that have an EV6 style plug. Depending on your existing injectors, adapters may be required. The correct injector wiring adapters can be found found here.
Do throttle body spacers add horsepower?
One of the main benefits of a throttle body spacer is an increase in horsepower. Ultimately, the spacer increases the air velocity which causes an increase in atomization. Because the throttle body spacer allows for more air, the engine does not have to work as hard.
Can you put LS9 heads on a LS3?
Head Interchangeability For instance, you cannot install an LS3, LS9 or L92-style head on an LS1 or LS6 block due to valve interference with the block deck. One of the primary reasons that you can’t simply swap heads willy-nilly is due to the cylinder head’s valve layout and valve head diameter.
How much power can LS3 heads make?
The LS3 and L99 are both Gen IV, 6.2L, aluminum block, car engines which came under the hoods of GM performance cars between 2008 and 2017. Both the LS3 and L99 engine blocks can be pushed to 850 to 1,000 horsepower. Both engines use rectangle port cylinder heads and have a common 4.065-inch bore diameter.
What kind of intake manifold does a LS3 engine use?
Available for rectangular port LS3 and raised port LS7 engines, the FAST LSXHR™ 103mm Intake Manifold ships with a set of “Tall” removable velocity stacks, however “medium” and “short” stack options can be purchased separately.
What are the benefits of fast lsxr intake manifold?
Another benefit of the LSXr intake is its modular design. FAST has also been hard at work developing more race-specific runners, and they say that mid-length and race runners will be available later this year. These should allow racers to further fine-tune the LSXr manifold around their engine build.
How much horsepower does the lsxhr 103mm intake manifold gain?
Testing has shown an average 30-horsepower gain between 5000-7500 RPM over competitor tunnel ram intake manifolds. The FAST LSXHR™ 103mm Intake Manifold is designed specifically with boosted applications in mind and is rated for up to 45psi of continuous pressure.
Why are all LSX your manifolds the same?
Per Maxwell, “When the 102mm LSX R manifold was designed, the LS1/LS6 engines were history. So the engineers decided to use the mounting locations of one of the current engines, the LS3. For manufacturing ease all the LSX R manifolds have the same top shell, and therefore the same fuel rail mounting locations.”
