I'm not really surprised. I would have bet atleast 40hp. Good to see it on paper though. Also, thats going from a TBSS intake, our older style would show a even larger gain. Also, this on a Mustang dyno. You can add about 15-20% more for dynojet gains.

I've seen guys on LS1tech that silicone the two pieces together for big boost and they seem to be fine.

I'd love to try one of these someday. That mid-RPM torque boost would be mighty nice in our heavy trucks but once you add the 102TB and the Dr X, it's indeed a pricey endeavor.

I am planning on getting one mid-march timeframe. I promise i will do before and after dyno, logs, etc. I wanna see if it will live up to the hype.

We ran 22psi at work on a Fast 102 on an LS7. It's holding together just fine. I sure hope that the throttle body on that TBSS in the picture is an LS9 throttle body because the LS2 truck throttle body is useless at that power level with some miles on it.
