i'm sure someone on the site has installed a slp cold air on thier tpi car. I will be installing one soon (its on order) but i'm going out of town so it wont be installed for like a week. just wondering what difference it will make to times. So far my car has a air foil, AFPR, underdrives, and some timing and has gone 14.33

(the car will also get a Random Tech after cat and a B&M converter soon, i like testing each part by itself)

Ive never used a SLP one but I made one myself for my old car and I could really feel a difference. You can also hear the engine actually sucking in air like it should . You could of made your own too for about 3/4 less than what the SLP one is theyre way overpriced.

guy at the track i race with has one on his car. its a big improvement over the stock piece but still leaves some to be desired. those formulas are hard to get air flow to without making a custom nice smooth piped intake setup or convert to speed density and have the open element and ram air hood

I have one and have installed it. I love it it was a great add on with my full exhaust. My motor can finally breath. Yeah whoever designed that stock set up on Pontiacs is a little
I have nothing but good things to say about SLP....But you get what you pay for. All the rubber boots all have a metal piece in them to allow the air to flow really good. You wont be dissapointed at all!

Not trying to jack this thread, but if one were to make a cold air intake, where would be the optimal position to have the inlet to the intake? I like how the stock intake for the TPI on camaros get access to the fog light ducts, but I've seen some guys put them in place of their battery, and I have trouble visualizing how you are getting optimal airflow in that area.

in all honesty the SLP kit is nice, and makes a nice addition espeically if you want to have a pretty show type of car

but
i think you can get away with using a K&N 3.5" cone type of filter in place of the stock air box
heck of alot cheaper and easier to install
and i bet it will breath better too

wont be a real true cold air kit, but it will definitely help alot
