I have the dual snorkel airbox on my car. I have removed the splash shields and cut the bottom of the boxes out. I have also opened up and smoothed out the entry where it meets the maf. I also have duct work down behind the fog lights to get cold air.
This setup worked fine with my old hotcam set up and the car trapped a best of 114mph. I upgraded to an LE2 last summer. Now the car is moving alot more air. I havent dynoed it yet, but If I can get all my ducks in a row it should make 400 plus rwhp. Is it time for some kind of custom cold air set up?
Thanks for your thoughts.

btw long tubes and a new exhaust are also in my immediate future.

 

this was done to the camaro split intake on vincentz28's car. He's putting 373 hp to the ground and I was at the dyno when he tested this and saw a 9 hp gain.

I would say that the stock airbox no matter how much is cut out at the bottom would be restrictive on the Camaro's. You're taking a whole bunch of air, shoving it into a little flat space (which will heat the air up a bit) and trying to ram it down 58mm TB. I say put a CAI on it.

 

I really like what INTIMIDATOR Z did to his car for a cold air intake.

Thanks for the replys.
What I have now isn't much different than the first post. I agree that I need more though. Thanks for confirming my thoughts.

Hey Tyler
Are you driving that beast yet?

get ram air works great.

 

Looks like his hood hits the intake pipes??? Cant belive it fits under there

 

I was a little, but now its all torn down waiting for the 4L60E and my 4th gen guages/dash swap. I am trying to have it ready for ThirdGen fest in 3 weeks.
