Please recommend a CAI for Maggie 2300 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

ffrcobra_65 · 10-21-2009, 06:54 PM

Title says it.
I currently have the R-F CAI and Maggie will be installed in a couple of weeks. I don't want a hack up job to fit the R-F CAI with the Maggie unless it looks like it belongs and someone can post an after-photo. I attempted to buy a replacement tube from R-F but so far, no reply to my messages.
So, who makes a CAI that fits well with the Maggie. No offense to anyone but no LMR for me either.
ADM
Hennessey
what else?

Thanks guys!

update: Just got a call back from R-F...SS tube for Maggie fitment is available. It is cost effective to stick with my R-F CAI and just get their SC tube. But that ADM unit sure is tempting!!!! I am still thinking. Maggie is not here yet so I got a week or so. Thank you all who responded. I greatly appreciate this site and the vendors who participate here. AWESOME!

Our Air Box is specifically made to be ADAPTABLE.

A simple rotation of the 90 degree silicone at the throttle body makes for a straight shot at the Air Box. We have fitted many and a few other shops (G-Force Motorsports, Jannetty Racing and RPM Motorpsorts) have used our intake as well with TVS2300's with great success

The gains were pretty awesome being the car made 478 rwhp on 8#'s and after the camshaft it made 537 rwhp on only 5.5#'s of boost !! With 8#'s I am sure we could easily push 560+. Here is a rundown of the mods installed and a pic of the dyno graph ....

I was going to say Crowley's car has one and send him a PM, It looks good on the AFR almost perfect.

Jannetty Racings 560 RWHP Street Brawler Package Proudly Uses the ADM CAI due to it's fit,finish, and performance with the Magnacharger.

Ted.

Ted those are strong numbers,Looks like the intake is a perfect match for your package.

I developed this kit originally for the 427 car in the shop...then installed one on Crowleys car (First ADM Intake on a S/C) and I was all prepared to build a different box,but soon realized it fit with no problems.

We also recommend using the temp sensor in the Maf with a NON MAGGIE BASE TUNE to take maximum advantage of the IAT Sensor location.

Just a tidbit of info here to give a better understanding!

BTW-We are about to put this airbox to a very serious test...more on this in the up in coming weeks.

ffrcobra_65 · 10-21-2009, 11:16 PM

thanks for the photos! ADM looks great with the SC for sure. I am liking the little cf piece atop the box. Gotta think hard now....

Crowley · 10-22-2009, 07:37 AM

ADM Performance airbox all the way. It works and looks good too !!! That is what I use w/ my 2300 ..

I would check out the Roto-Fab products. They also have an excellent fit and finish, and they just released the tube that is made just for the Magna kit!

I actually received the new tube from Mike on Thursday and I dropped my car off for the Magna 2300 install today. I will take pics when I pick it up later next week. Just quickly comparing the standard RF CAI tube and the new tube, seems like it is 2 inches shorter angled downward a bit more. It seems a bit short and I can't picture the fit just looking at it so I'll have to wait til installed. It looks purdy though.

It will look similar to this.

Sack Rat 2SS · 11-08-2009, 03:17 PM

Still not sure whether I will be using a Maggie. So, will use the ADM CAI since it fits both applications right from the get go. I also like the quality and that it looks somewhat factory and hides the ugly filter element and MAF sensor inside the airbox.

I hate to disagree with you Mike but it will look much better installed in my engine bay

It will be the pic you'll want to use to show it off.

You did a great job sanding off the weld lines as much as possible.

GMRULZ · 11-09-2009, 06:58 AM

No disrespect to rotofab, as its a awesome product, but it will never look as good as a painted ADM Race:

rharon · 11-15-2009, 09:44 PM

I love my Roto-fab! It also looks great!

2Tightwads · 11-15-2009, 10:02 PM

If you're gonna be spending that kinda money (Magnacharger) I would go with the best, ADM Performance CAI.

Thanks but I decided to keep the R-F CAI and I replaced the black tube with the Maggie specific tube from R-F. I picked up my car yesterday. I think it turned out nicely.
