Roto-Fab Cold Air Intake Install - PHASTEK Performance - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Sean@Phastek · 11-17-2009, 08:46 AM

Here are some pictures from the quick install of the Roto-Fab Cold Air Intake for the 2010 Camaro SS.

First things first, awesome product!! Very well designed, built, and packaged! Super easy to install as well - everything bolts right up nice and easily, and it comes with detailed instructions too.

Main tube has excellent flow into the throttle body. Simply swap over your existing MAF sensor from the old clunky air box setup into the Roto-Fab MAF housing, attach it to the heat shield that pretty much just snaps into place! Tons of room for the Huge air filter (you can get them oiled or dry). Also, the heat shield is designed to catch the cold air coming in through the small opening in the front which helps. No check engine lights or anything

This is definitely one of our favorite Cold Air kits for the 2010 Camaro. Great bang for the buck, easy install, best performance gains, and you can get the main intake tube in black, carbon fiber, or chrome if you like, as well as different colors for the heat shield and hoses!

Packaged nice and neatly

Awesomeness!

Everything you need right there (minus the instructions)

A good look at the stock engine layout

Stock airbox

Stock outside air inlet

GM tried...

Entire Stock Air Box removed with 3 screws...

Natural air flow direction into intake area...

Nice LS3...

Drop in Heat Shield, install the new huge MAF sensor housing & hoses...

Snap on MAF sensor connector...

Screw on the new Air Filter...

Done!

Looks awesome!

Hey everyone, here is a quick video of a Roto-Fab CAI that we installed on a Magnacharged 2010 Camaro, check it out!

Roto-fab 1 · 01-04-2010, 07:32 PM

Very thorough and nice pics!

RCPW · 01-05-2010, 06:46 AM

I like the sticker that says 700 HP on the side, The CAI, Looks Pretty Sweet tho..

cerberus · 01-05-2010, 05:20 PM

I ordered mine right before Christmas, should be getting it soon!!!

Black5thgen · 01-05-2010, 09:53 PM

Awesome, I love mine. Now you just need an engine cover to match.

Roto-Fab offers some awesome engine covers as well, including the carbon fiber plenum cover!

do these engine covers fit on top of a Maggie TVS2300? if so, I just might have to get one for my Bumblebee.

BLKnCHRME09Deluxe · 01-08-2010, 01:14 PM

I ordered my Roto-Fab through Phastek and recieved it within days. Thanx guys.

2010SSRS · 01-08-2010, 04:07 PM

i ordered mine thru Roto-Fab directly for the SAME sale price as everyone else BUT was able to get the IOM box option which nobody said they could (or wanted) to do..

motor1 · 01-08-2010, 07:27 PM

I got my Roto Bab yesterday and I am VERY impressd by its build quality. First of all the packaging alone let me know that I had purchased a great product. It is too cold to install anytime soom but I am happy with what I have seen. This and the Vector tune waiting to be installed have me wishing it was just a little warmer. If anyone else with just a Vector tune and Roto-fab with the LS3 has any feedback I would really appreciate it.

Sean@Phastek · 01-09-2010, 12:28 PM

Glad to hear guys! When we ordered ours, it was just to test it out. Then after seeing it in person and installing it, I wouldn't swap it out for anything else!

Phastek can also supply customers with custom color Roto-fab air boxes. However, there may be a one week lead time for colors other than Black, yellow, red or silver. You will not receive a lower price by ordering direct through Roto-fab. Don't forget some other options such as a dry filter, red or yellow hump hose couplers and carbon fiber finish on the inlet elbow.

Very nice, I am planning on RotoFab for my car as well. Very clean looking.

We have a great system for your Camaro and for your G8. Phastek can hook you up with either or both!

PAUL SS · 01-21-2010, 10:55 AM

Nice unit. Does the air box only come in red?

King T · 01-21-2010, 12:29 PM

I think I will be getting the Roto-Fab too. I am really pleased with what I see and read about it.

Seems like Phastek might become a one stop shopping spot for me. I would like to get the CAI and the PFADT springs. What good sway bars go with the PFADT?

I would also like the American Racing 1 7/8 long tube headers, but I'm still deciding if I want that or the Texas Speed headers and exhaust system.

Roto-fab 1, Sean@Phastek what is the difference between the getting a dry or oiled filter? With the K&N filter I had on my other car you had to oil it with the charge kit when you clean it. I'm just trying to figure out what y'all are talking about. Forgive my ignorance...

PFADT offers a complete package with the drop springs and sway bars, it's a great kit. It includes the Sport Sway Bars and their Drop Springs. Here is the link: PFADT Sport Suspension Package

American Racing and Kooks are our most popular header setups by far, for long tubes & complete headers and 3" exhaust kits.

You are correct with the filters, you will need to recharge the Oiled filter every 10k miles or so, depending on location. Oiled filters are our most popular if that helps...

It comes in Silver. You have the option of black, red, or yellow. You can also get a custom color as an additional upgrade.

Thanks man. You have answered all of my questions

As soon as I get my car back next week (in the shop from a fender bender) you will be hearing from me on the CAI and Springs/Sways first

I see you have your car on the dyno in your signature picture. What kind of numbers are you getting with your setup? Thanks!
