Looking for Cat Back and Intake - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Looking for recommendations for Cat Back and intake for my new car.

I like a system with minimal drone thats aggressive sounding around town but not too loud, When I get on it I want to set off car alarms

Im going with the roto-fab and stainless works for mine. Will probably be the best money spent until its out of warranty then the headers and tune go in.

The Roto-fab intake installs easily and makes great power without a tune. If you decide to go with a tune and more power additives later, it's a great system for that as well.

I recommend the Roto-Fab for the intake system, and the Magnaflow 15053. We gained 30 HP on a ZL1 the other day with no tuning and a Roto-Fab intake system as the only mod. Needless to say, the Roto-Fab is a great bang for the buck! Please feel free to call, PM or email me anytime with questions or price shopping.

Best regards,

Everyone seems to run the Roto Fab and swear by it so thats what I went with. I live just outside of Philly Pa and ordered mine from Jannetty Racing yesterday at 3pm and it arrived on my doorstep today at 1pm....pretty hard to beat that kind of service

I have the rotofab.

my .02 on catback on this car is that it is a waste of money you way better off spending money on midepipe or headers in my eye's.

now if you really want to do catback you can sell you stock one for good money.

1. magnaflow (i personally hate them 409 pipe 304 mufflers and tips)
2. borla stinger (love the sound 304 construction all the way through)
3. corsa (don't like the idel sound wicked at wot all 304 stainless)
4. billy boat (nice system, dual mode, sound tame IMO without midepipe mods)
5. Stainless work (only exhaust I have not run on a car sound wicked in the clips but they also have headers on the car)

AGREED. I SPOKE WITH TED BY EMAIL 5 OR 6 TIMES YESTERDAY. HE WENT OUT OF HIS WAY TO ADDRESS MY QUESTIONS AND ADVISE ME ON THE BEST WAY FOR ME TO MOD MY ZL. WILL BE ORDERIBG FROM HIM BEXT WEEK!!

New Era performance makes awesome cold air intake, and they are here in NY. If you are looking for great sound, go with the american racing headers with the high flow cats and X pipe and keep the factory mufflers. Tame enough at idle and putting around town but sound like nascar when you stomp on it!
