Thinkin bout adding a CAI
hey guys, just thinkin bout adding an intake. I heard they work great I was just wondering if its worth the couple of hundreds of dollars i would be spending. Im mostly looking for that deeper sound but the other benefits sound appealing as well. Let me knowwhat you think!

By far should always be the first and best upgrade on any vehicle

You'll find just about everyone on this site has changed intakes on their Camaro's. Like someone said on a previous post...most of them produce a "throaty sound" so you may want to look into performance. Jeanetty (sp?) racing has a thread on intakes and their performance. You should check it out. From what I remember it said each of them has their ups and downs. Good luck on choosing which one....haha!!

Without a doubt the best money you can spend on the car.

You engine is basically a big air pump. Making more power is all about moving more air more efficiently. The by product is great sound.

they are great and mostly easy mods... i installed an airaid and could do it almost with my eyes closed... very easy install and easy to reverse. Sounds great and airaid is a wonderful company to deal with. Great throaty sound and an increase of performance.
