Surprised By The Small Gain With Cold Air Intake

I installed a Cold Air Intake tonight and was very surprised by the small bump in HP. It was obvious to me when i gave her a little gas, throttle response was much crisper also! Also Blacked out the front bumper and added some Lloyds mats in fronts and rears!

15 rwhp doesn't feel like much on a car with 400+. You made the right choice on the intake. Your car looks pretty sweet! You can try adding a ADM scoop but again your talking a couple horsepower. Add a set of long tubes for some real power gains!

Do the heater hose relocation mod while they are already there!!! really cleans up the engine bay since it looks like you leave your cover off.

Love the black out front but too large on the back.

Based on the title I thought it sounded like you were surprised in a bad way but it sounds like you're happy with it. Looks great!

Couldn't be happier with the fit sound and quality of the product, also what the hell is the heater hose relocation tidbit?

Thanks for choosing Flowmaster exhaust for your Camaro. Are you going Axle-Back or Cat-Back? Either way it will sound great with the headers.
