The correct answer is

T27X

Break FAST into F, A, S, T and G20U into G, 20, U.

First letter: F + 1 = G.

Middle letters: A = 1 and S = 19, and 1 + 19 = 20.

Last letter: T + 1 = U.

Apply the same to SLOW: S + 1 = T; L = 12 and O = 15, so 12 + 15 = 27; W + 1 = X.

So the code for SLOW is T27X.

Hence, T27X.
