What cold air intake should i use?
 
What cold air intake can I use for my 350tpi?
Does K&N support thirdgen camaros?
I looked on their website, and when I put in the make, model, year, and engine it came up with only oil filters, and replacements for the stock intake.

For Camaro TPIs, you cab't really beat what the factory already built.

About the only "improvements", would be to pull the fog lights out of the way, but the filter mount base below the filters, run K&Ns & enlarge where the y-piece merges into 1 bround tube. Make that piece bigger, to flow more air.

That's about it.

Stock better than THAT one? Yeah.

It may be sealed from the engine compartment, but not a BIG flow of cool air. It could be better.

The stock setup is aimed directly at the incoming air as your driving, creating a "ram air" effect. https://www.thirdgen.org/ramair

To further enhace what I already gave the link to, here is a thread showing one guy enlarging where the y-piece comes together, to lead to the throttle body.

Combine the 2 & you can't get much better, with just a stock hood on a Camaro.

This is a nice setup for Camaro TPI's. You modify your lower air box (very easy) and add the ram air kit.

Or save $70 & build it yourself, like in the link I already posted above.....
