Default My version of a FAST 102 setup

Getting ready to install a new FAST 102 setup on the Old Black Car. As most of you know I can't leave anything alone. So...

Here's the stock FAST intake



Here it is after I did some shaving and smoothing. Got rid of all the lettering.



In primer and ready for paint. Installed a plastic plug over the MAP boss.



All painted in gloss black.



I polished the Nick Williams 102 throttle body and fuel rails.



More later...

Turned out great! I still think it would have been cool to keep the letters and paint them flat black but it's all good.

Did you get the fuel line and fittings yet? Looking forward to seeing those on there.

I have to disagree with Munch, and say it looks much better w/o the letters.
