That's the smart thing to do. There's absolutely no scenario in which he responds and isn't eaten alive.

I kind of had a feeling that would happen.
I was 21 for about 5 years then when I turned 26 decided to tell people I am 25.

It's the short ram version, though. So I don't think it has the same performance as the long tube (it wasn't included with the intake comparison that was done a while back), but I don't know how much of a difference it is. I would have gone with the long tube, but I had recently helped a guy who's filter/tube got soaked (after a heavy rainstorm) when coming in through my apartment complex's entrance.

To be honest only way I have my Camaro is because of my parents. My dad made a deal that if I did well in school, helped around the house, etc. that I would get a new car. Originally I was supposed to get an LS which I was more than happy about but that's when my dad decided to upgrade the order to the 2LT so that I wouldn't spend too much money getting the car to be like a RS and all the other things. So so long as I stay at home for college and do well my parents will pay for my school, living expenses, car and insurance. When I'm done with college and leave he will transfer the car to my name and I will leave the house with no student loans.

Hope that doesn't come across as a spoiled little rich kid because I really am not that way.
I'm actually not working right now. I made a few investments in high school that are paying off pretty well. I don't think your a spoiled rich kid at all. My mom actually bought me my car as well. I got into the university I wanted with everything paid for so she got me the car. The mods are all my money though.

Oh then you might notice a difference. I did when I switched from the airaid. I also didn't want the long tube because of the horror stories of people ingesting water. With this car being my daily driver, I didn't want to put myself in a situation where I'd be worried about my intake when it started raining so I didn't get that one

Hmmm, maybe I can borrow one of the local guys' Vararam just to compare. I'm sure I'd be able to sell mine if I switched over.
Yeah, I've driven through deep area's here in Houston where I wouldn't have made it with the long tube. And when I'm trying to get home after a 28 hr shift, I don't want to have to mess with an intake, haha.
