Cold Air Intake or MRT V2 First? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Thanks for taking time to read this post. I have a 2011 LS V6 3.6L and I am wanting to install a CAI intake, and the MRT V2 exhaust but I dont know which one to do first.. Any opinions? Much appreciated!

You can install a CAI with a screw driver in a few minutes.

The MRT would require you to saw off the old mufflers. Unless you have a sawzall you would need to take that to a shop to get done.

You will notice the MRT more than the CAI.

I just ordered mine today from Chase Apex. Once it arrived it will be installed at the shop I don't know how difficult it is for install. Then I will get the MRT V2 I called couple of shop for quote for material and install but I haven't got a response yet. How much is the price for MRT V2?

The cheapest I have been able to find the MRT V2 online anywhere is around $549.99.

When I finally order it I am either going to get it from mrt-direct.com or apex-speed.com The thing about Apex speed is that if you order both items, the MRT exhaust, and the CAI intake you get about 150.00 chopped off of the final price, plus free shipping!

Yeah, I ran into it last night... I believe it was Apex but I cannot promise it was after thinking about it.. I have looked at so many sites in the past 24 hours I think my brain is starting to melt!

Not bad. Be sure to let us know what you think once you get it installed.
