Have we decided which is the best CAI ?

Im on the fence between the Vararam and the CAI......ive seen the dynos and cant tell who is telling the truth and which one has the most bang-for-the-buck......I dont plan on doing a tune and dont care if I have to wait for production to increase to get it.........Everybody has an opinion but can somebody tell me who the winner is?

certainly can't go wrong with the CAI ... have you checked out the link on the CAI test that was done a few weeks ago? Check it out ..

All the cold air intake currently out for the 2010 Camaro are great. Only a few hp separates them all.I would make my decision on which one looks the best according to your likings.

Don't get too hung up on the hp. The difference between them is negligible and which is better could change based on when, where, how they were tested. Since you don't want to tune, you want to make sure the one you pick won't throw a code and require you to get a tune.

it definitely is a nice piece......I have one of yours in my Jeep and one in my Tahoe.......but there weren't a lot of quality ones for my other vehicles. Now there are so many choices.....

These are the (2) I support personally despite all that other name brands we carry. New to the market is CAI (Cold Air Inductions) which is really nice as well. Just am not having as many requests as the other two mentioned previously as they came to market a little later.
