LOL 18 posts for Injen and 3 for Roto-Fab and you go with Roto-Fab. Sounds like somebody had made up their mind before they posted this thread

I don't think it really matters, they're all pretty close in the Janetty comparison. Get whichever one looks the best to you.

One more for Injen long tube.

edit: Not that it would have mattered. Haha.

2011 Camaro 2SS, Borla S-Type Cat Back w/HallTech 101MM +- CAI Poly tube w/heat shield. Polished aluminum/metal looks great, but heat absorbed by metal n stays for long periods of time takes away from what U want going into the engine, cold air. Poly disipates heat better than metal so poly runs your engine faster due to colder air flow! HallTech 14.5 RWHP increase:>)

Entertaining rant, but this is a V6 discussion, and we don't have a HallTech.

Our V6 system hasn't been on the market as long as some others, but it is quickly gaining popularity due to the positive feedback from the ones that do have it. Performance, sound appearance and ease of installation are all important to most car owners so we made sure each was a addressed with this intake.
In addition to air box color varieties, we offer a dry filter option and a carbon fiber finish option on the inlet elbow. Also, we have radiator covers, fuse relay covers and our billet chrome oil cap for those that like to add a little color under the hood.

What's the horsepower gain on those u pictured roto-fab 1

[usa1camaro1969]

Roto-fab looks a lot like my K&n set-up minus the polished tube I have. I like the way the roto-fab seems to move the MAF a little closer to the filter than mine. It may help with intake temps.

I agree. I also like the color match on the box.

We consistently saw +12 HP with the intake. Comparing our numbers to numbers posted by someone else can be misleading. For example we could show a better gain simply by comparing to a slightly lower baseline run.(which we had a few of) Dyno numbers are useful, but track times and actual "seat of the pants" feel are both more important to me. With our intake you will gain enough that you actually feel it while giving your V6 a sound that puts a smile on your face. In addition, installation is easy and instructions are thorough. Our products fit like you expect and look good in your engine compartment.
According to feedback from most of our customers, these are the things that will make you feel like you spent your money wisely when you choose the Roto-fab intake system.

CAI. Inc and Injen is the most favord here.

IMO CAI.inc for the V6 it looks good and has good performance.

I agree with a lot of what you say...

For example on the dyno... Had my car on the dyno last Saturday. We seen a 12 RWHP swing from the first pull and the peak HP which was on the 5th pull! (5 pulls in 9 minutes! WOOHOO!)




And I agree testing things at the track too... In fact weather permitting I always hit the 1/4 mile track on the way home from the dyno... Last Saturday was no exception... Made about 8 passes...

I completely disagree with the butt dyno though.... the placebo effect is just way to strong! We've been through the butt dyno discussion before...

Airaid v2 modded works great and allegedly has the most bottom end torque according to JRE.
