I don't know of any that will fit...make one and you'll make some cash.

its on another project. i like it, it was a vast improvement over the stock tpi. it can be a pita to tune, went through 4 "custom " chips from the same company before one worked right, but it still runs rich even. i might put one on my car, not sure yet though.

how come your changing intakes jeff?

running out of volume on the top end. even ported the miniram can't keep up in torque numbers. thinking about just building a custom one off setup to fit my needs.

buy it and the exhaust...i'll sell it cheap to you.

lol its tempting....can the miniram be ran with the dfi setup?


the hsr seems to run out of breath at 6400-6500rpm. but it could be the cam, or even the heads, but overall its a nice design, and its very streetable.

here is a pic of it installed, basically you would have to fit a stb between it and the hood to make it work. and that is a very tight fit, might be 2" max space with the ss hood

oh yeah, this camaro isnt made for show, just a side project to work on

yeah see that's my problem...i really benefit from a stb with the coilover style conversion so i'm going to try the sr but i'm sure i'll have to eventually sell it for a superram.

as far as mr and dfi..yes it won't make a difference. cheaper to work with stock computer though.

Thought the miniram was the highest flowing of all intakes.

Wow, didnt know HSR was that tall. STB will work for superram though, wont it? How about under the stock iroc hood? Thats what I am planning.

all of them, an no the miniram isn't the best option out there but it can be the best option for particular combos. just depends on what your running.
