Browse through this section; you'll find a lot of information. It seems there are a lot of systems that are still in the works too, so just do a little searching

The Roto-fab CAI system will be available in about 2 weeks. It performs well, fits the car as it should and looks good! There will be many options including:
*Plastic or stainless steel inlet elbow
*variety of heat shield colors
*black, red, yellow or blue hoses
*Carbon fiber hydragraphic finish on tube
*Oil or dry filter

The pic showing the inside of the heat shield shows the tight fit necessary to keep hot radiator and engine compartment air away from the filter. The air box coupler screws to the heat shield and has a flat surface resting against the air box- again to prevent hot air from reaching the filter.
Most newer vehicles (including the Camaro) have very short fan shrouds that push air in all directions. Try this- with your car at operating temperature, turn your A/C on and place your hand in the air box area. You don't want that air reaching your filter!
