lots of "Gulf Coast" Camaro owners here!!! Make sure it is warm this winter!!!

Love my CAI intake! Just take your time doing it. The only issue I had was with the lid. Once you have it tucked under the outside lip, it's all good. Lori's tip of using the hair dryer is a good one, that's what I did as well.

It's an awesome looking piece of work. So much better than the stocker. I also love the way you can hear the engine sucking in the air when you mash down on the go pedal too!

Enjoy!

Thanks for the tips Freddie

Stormtrooper lives only 15 miles from me & he said he would gladly help me out!! Very nice ppl. on this forum

It slightly more difficult than applying a decal on your car and less difficult than changing a tire with a good floor jack and impact wrench. Easy as pie my friend. Just may be the easiest mod in the history of modding.

Thanks again for the info

I am in Trinity AKA New Port Richey. Relocated from MI 10yrs ago. We have quite a few 5th gen owners around here. I can't speak to the V6 but, i'm pretty sure it would be no more work than on the V8. I had mine installed in about 30 minutes.

I know exactly where you are my Sister-in-Law lives in New Port Richey. I think the development is Summer Lakes about 5-10 min from you. We like to come down there Thanksgiving week I will keep an eye out for your Red SS when I am there. Hoping to bring the convertible down this year instead of my Silverado to get a little more top down time in before the long cold winter up here in NY.

Shit, I'm over 50 and a blonde.. I didn't have a heat gun and went into my bathroom and retrieved my hair blow dryer. It worked - just took a little longer for the shrink wrap to do it's thing. Shouldn't take an hour.. Great looking product too. Lori

So easy a Blonde... ummm a caveman can do it.

No matter which cold air intake you choose.

IMO, the hardest part was unwrapping it. The do a great job in packaging these thing to prevet damage. Thanks for that!!

Once you get past the wrapping, the rest is a breeze.

Love my CAI, CAI!!

Very easy to install. I did a fairly extensive research as well. The CAI, Inc. unit, IMO, is made of the highest quality. Being in data center design, I appreciated the thermo analysis that was done. It really is a well-engineered product.

One recommendation.....I also went with the Robo-Fab washer fluid bottle relocation kit. Again, not a hard install and really opens up the intake path.

I don't know why I was asked to do the installs on the other 2 cars. Heck, the way I saw it...free breakfast and beer

Not in that order though!

Haha!
