Re: cant find nothing that will fit for my TBI
well they dont technically sell one for our cars. a lot of people have been taking the tpi air boxes and using them as an air box for cold air induction do a search on it and you'll see them.

yeah but if you use a tpi box can you get as much hp compared to a built cold air intake for tbi?

I doubt the factory camaro TPI air cleaner will anyhow be restricting on a LO3, since the stock TBI aircleaner is not really restricting it.
The 170hp @ 4400 rpm LO3 engine is not exatcly a air hog, though a nice air cleaner could still be nice to have.
The TPI air cleaner can also be modded, somewere in the TPI or fabbrication forum there is a high flow air cleaner lid tread covering it. With a little search you will find it.
Here are some other examples of DIY cai.

Re: cant find nothing that will fit for my TBI
One word of caution is that TBI does not work well with very cold air. You will get stratified mixtures if you run the TPI airbox in the winter. One option is to simply put an open element on the end of the carb hat so you pull warm air off the radiator.

Yeah someone on here put the tpi airbox and then used the stock air cleeaner housing as the filter. Im sure you probably saw it. I think they ran the truck lid so they could get a taller filter. I liked that setup
