I don't like unsubstantiated statements, so I want to clarify my previous statement that K&N filters are not good. Here is a study done some time ago comparing many filters as to filtration capability, propensity to clog, etc. K&N ranked at the very bottom, and AC Delco at the top. I used to be a K&N fanboy, but after seeing this study, I won't use them any more. For me, I simply run the stock air filter and air box, and I am completely satisfied. http://www.billswebspace.com/AirFilterTest.htm |

Rotofabs are preferred by ZL1 owners. Seems most SS owners here prefer the Chevrolet performance cai or CAI, Inc, who makes or at least licenses the cai for Chevrolet. Can also get it from places like Summit Racing

FWIW, the Chevy CAI comes with a small tune included the dealership does, not sure how much is really tweaked for it.

Performance parts buy used or during sale if you can. Cost me right about $3g in parts to be almost full bolt on.
Rotofab I got used for $240 95mm tb $300 flex fuel sensor $150 tsp headers $900 msd intake mani used $650 tune $700 Not installed yet but have gm hot cam, and install parts another $1000. Looking back my build is gonna be $4000 in parts, I might have stuck with my original plan to do lt4 sc. Would have been about $4500 in parts .

My suggestion is to wait a little bit. For performance mods, wait until you know the car, then figure out what you want it to do better.
Aesthetics, take a look around, see what you like. Look at it with the end in mind. IOW, look at the car as a whole, and how you want the overall theme to go. Whatever you do, don't just jump in without a plan, or throw stuff at it just because everyone is doing it. Rushing in can be expensive and never turns out the way you hoped it would. |

id steer clear of the k&n cai. i've seen one in person and it looks to be smaller than the factory stuff.

Congrats on the new camaro. I recommend picking up the gm cai. Spend some time cruising thru the various threads to get some ideas.

A bumper sticker that says:
SLOW DOWN, DON'T FEED THE PIGS will probably get you some attention. |
