Gen 5 Camaro External Bolt-On Tech - K&n cai

Wut do u guys think of these systems? fitment wise or performance wise?

Search camaro5...they talk about CAI's to death on their lol.

From what I think I remember they are not anything special and might be a bit behind the curve.

Cold Air Inductions CAI with ADM scoop is very good and one of the most popular. The latest jannetty independent dyno testing showed an 18rwhp increase with no tune with cold air inductions cai and adm scoop. 14rwhp without the scoop.

The Halltech is arguably a bit better with heat soak due to a plastic tube compared to metal with the cold air inductions. It made good power on the tests as well. Like I said...do some looking on C5.

ok cool, well the K&N has a plastic tube like the Halltech as well

The Halltech has a larger inlet tube, and a massive filter as well. The K&N is the same simple design, but the tube and filter are much smaller by comparison, therefore moving less air. It is still superior to the stock airbox and paper filter, just not one of the top performing intakes. A few other options to consider are, Roto-Fab, Vararam, and ADM.

does it make that much of a difference in hp between the two?

Honestly, proabably not. However, if your trying to squeeze out as much power as possible and don't mind paying extra, the more expensive intakes are worth looking at. Absolutely nothing wrong with K&N, other than a little too much oil on the filter element from the factory.

Like Ultra said, If you have the time, just check out Camaro5. Not the best forum for technical topics, but there are several detailed comparisons and dyno charts with no bias towards any particular brand.

ok cool, i think im probably just gonna Halltech it

Halltech is definitely your best option out of those two. Roto Fab is top notch also.

Stay away from any air intake with a Aluminum coated tube or any metal tube. Heat soak will be a problem with them.

yea i like the plastic, so how many mm is the stock throttle body?? and wut size inlet is the Halltech and the K&N??

Stock TB is 90mm

Halltech is made for it. I don't know about the K&N

Thats cool cause someone said the Halltech is an 102mm opening?

i have the k&n, fit is perfect and the sound is great. butt dyno is whatever, an intakes an intake to me.

From what I have read on here, Heat Soak only occurs when you are at a dead stop so either option would work for you.

yea went with the halltech

I agree with jhart. I went with K&N too in December.

I'm mostly interested in before/after track results. My CAI in my TBSS dropped the truck from 13.84@99 to 13.73@101, that was pretty solid. I'd like to see similar info on the 5th gens since I just got one.
