No I don't, but I have seen numbers between 10 to 15 hp thrown around. But I know there are a lot of satisfied customers that have the roto-fab on this forum. I think you will be satisfied with the roto fab intake. What year Camaro do you have? If you have a 2012 there is only the roto-fab and the CAI. Both have amazing reviews. Not much of a difference in gains to make me go one over the other. But, the CAI was the 399 and I did not want to spend that much especially since I wanted to get the GM 4 gauge pod as well and only had so much funds at that time.

I put the roto fab on my 2010 and had it color matched as well. Looks great, easy to put on and the best part of all is the change in the sound of the car especially when you really get on the gas . Just an incredible sound. I know the injen and vararam offer better performance gaines but i really like the looks of the roto fab and I believe as someone posted earlier that you get about 10 hp or so out of it too. All in all well worth the money.

You will have to post some pics. Yes this forum does not help with the addiction. I have been sitting here researching solo exhausts and wheels. But, who knows when I will have funds for that. Wife and 2 kids will eat anything I would be able to save quickly.

You will have to let me know how you like it. Although I think I will try to save for the solo cat back and HFC since the 2012 can't do a header swap.

In one of the advertising companies one picture shows a green air filter.Ive looked at several places that sell roto-fabs but i see nothing on colored filters?

Its about 14hp. Its very well made. Has the same "waking your car up" effect as any other CAI, and improves overall response. But above all is the sound!

Was my first Mod to the car. Definitely recommend!

Edit: Also one of the main reasons I got it was the optional lifetime dry filter. Just vacuum, wash and dry, every few months. No need to mess around with cleaning systems and oil.

Congrats! It's going to be a great mod. I've had my Roto-Fab for about 6 months and couldn't have asked for more.

You will love it, and I still love mine. It will most definitely make the car sound better, and you will put the hammer down more to hear it. LOL
