Air Induction Systems

What are some good induction systems, that are bolt on for a 305 TPI Camaro? Is cold air that good?

IMO, the best one is the one you make yourself, look in the tech articles for a pretty good description. Basically use some AC ducting from home depot and some other little pieces. It'll cost like $10 maybe $15.

yes cold air is worth it. cold air is more dense. in other words, more air in a smaller place. it makes a difference.

Yeah, like Mo said custom made air induction is probably the best air induction you can have for the bucks. The most expensive in this kind of system is the conical air filter element like akimoto induction filter. I know all ricers put them on their car but it work very well on a TPI engine too. My custom made air induction gave me 9RHWP when I test it on a chassi dyno. It cost me about 140$ in canadian $. You should be able to built one for half the price in us $.
