slp cai vs free ram air on ls1 camaro
is there really a gain just puttin the slp intake on over just cutting out the support. I have one but just took it out figure if it doesn't gain any it's not worth the few pounds.

Yeah I notice when my car is still I can unpop the lid and a shitton of heat is rising up through the filter. I did the FRA mod and I think the SLP ram air would be alright. Its just something that has to be ran at the track to see results. I eventually will get one.

SSRA is the way to go. It angles away from condensor/radiator and dosent block it like all the other kits. I ran mine for a while with a/c untill it got hot out and I didnt like how my fans were running most of the time. Low spd fan on 202f off 196f and high spd fan on 208f and off 203f. But you gotta remember I had condensor, trans cooler, then the ssra ALL right there and it wasnt even all that bad.
Now, since I did weight reduction (deleted a/c) without the condensor in front of the radiator the coolant temp is freaking MINT! This is with the trans cooler mounted to the radiator and SSRA right in front. So if you havent deleted your a/c yet Then I say DO IT!
Ok, heres where I am at now...just today I figured well hell, since I deleted my a/c why not go for the bigger SSRA Megamouth?! So I just ordered one a few hours ago. I may have to move my transcooler to fit it but no problem.
Ill do an update when I get the bigger one but I really dont see it keeping my radiator from doing its job.

And if you want one, like I said...im getting the bigger one so mine is for sale here https://ls1tech.com/forums/parts-cla...c-version.html

she's my DD so i'm not losin the a/c but i don't have a trans cooler so i figure i can use or make a lighter and bigger one like the ssra i just think the slp isn't long enough and gets to small at the top. thanks for the insight.
