Car came with parts One of the Camaros I just bought already has a SLP TB, K&N cai,smooth bellows, Granateli maf. It still has a stock 00' intake and ex.man. with a flowmaster.I am building a new motor but for now should I remove these parts and replace them with stocks because what I understand from this site is these parts are pos, or should I leave them on?

FOr the most part the TB wont do much, the Bellows again wont do much, and the MAF can make it harder to tune the car, stocker is better.
The CAI though can still be useful. Flowmaster on these cars are ultra quiet and the better stock style intake is a LS6 style which was avalible 2001+ new LS1's
You maybe better off selling and parting out the small stuff. I am sure someone would take them.

Keep the TB, it's a ported stocker. It's really all you need unless you are trying to squeeze out every hp possible or are making 500+rwhp Keep the smooth bellows too. Won't make any difference in power but I think it gives the engine a cleaner look. The k&n should be fine too unless you just want to get something different for looks. Get rid of the maf and put a stock one back in.

great I have a stock maf to replace the graniteli. The new motor will remain stock boar and stroke. I am just going to go with forged rotating assembly and around bolts. I have a set of patriot 709 cnc'd heads and a comp cams 224 dur. Cam, so the intake set up should be fine. I am hoping with LT headers and a big catted y pipe and SLP PM it will sound nasty and make close to 400rwhp through the m6.
