I'm more interested in the time slips than the dyno slips!

Great job!

Where's the A/C? I can't live without it anymore!!

Re: my TIRD 1/2 GEN Camaro

That is SICK!!! I love how you retained the factory air intake. Although, the thin portion over the radiator...I doubt it'll feed enough air, for those HP levels.

Re: my TIRD 1/2 GEN Camaro

The ac compressor is there under the blower I need to get a custom line made to hook it up.
I am concerned about the flow with the tpi air cleaner set up as well but my preliminary testing seems to have it flowing aprox 1200 cfm I guess I will just have to run it and see how much boost I will make and change it if nesisary.

Re: my TIRD 1/2 GEN Camaro

Guys with n/a LS1's have noticed a difference when ditching the original TPI airbox setup.
