Free Mod Part 2

For all the F-Body owner, I did the free ram air mod on my camaro here is a few pics, it was ***** because I did not have the proper tools other then a hand saw and a drill...my fingers hurt but its well worth it oh and I also cleaned out the engine bay!

no, it was like 40$, it had a scratch on it from factory and so I got like 25$ off of it. I know...like I said, it was a pointless mod that I did just because I can...I realize this now...but hell I want my Camaro to be SLP and UMI composed performance parts so thats what Im going with.

the airlid is the top of the airbox, the bottem is the rectangle right there that secures the airfilter in place.

dont spend the 65 bucks for that slp smooth bellow, just go to home depot and go to the plumbing section, there is a rubber connector that fits for 5 bucks, and does the exact same thing

its what ever you want to call it...I dont care, it was my choice to do the mods, I think they are effective enough to have a little gain. and I believe there are proven hp differences in a stock airlid and an after market one.
