Cold Air Intake

I Have A 89 Rs 5.0 Tbi Camero Does Anyone Know Where I Could Find Cold Air Intake For It? Every Place I Check It's For Tpi Only. I Would Really Appreciate Any Help.

Re: Cold Air Intake

eh... best bet, buy a cowl induction hood, or a hood with a scoop, and make an airbox out of sheet metal. or run ducting up to where the tpi cold air intake is. in front of the radiator. either way im pretty sure youre gonna have to make your own.

Re: Cold Air Intake

i think it would actually work, jus make 2 little scoop so all the air doesnt just glide right over it

Re: Cold Air Intake

cowl induction works, the principles are sound. im willing to bet that the gains would be worth the work, and if not than atleast you will be able to say that you made your own cowl induction for your car. you would prolly need the cowl induction hood though or one of those bolt on scoops that you can buy...

Re: Cold Air Intake

i was thinking of jus lay a piece of sheet metal level, use leveler and weld the piece in place, then make the sides, kinda like a box, so the air goes driectly in, in a straight line right into the intake

Re: Cold Air Intake

but instead of the sides going in like a normal triangle they can either be straight up and down or at an angle going out
