3.8L V6 Intake?

Hey guys,

I just bought a 1996 3.8L V6 Camaro and am very new to the car scene. I was looking into getting a new intake, but am not sure which ones would fit on my engine. Any ideas? I'm on a tight budget so the cheaper the better.

Any help would be appreciated!

BTW: I did search the forum for a bit, but only found threads on people wanting intakes for their V8 Camaro's.

Thanks,

Kevin

Re: 3.8L V6 Intake?

The best brand is prety much agreed to be the BLP intake. People also use Lingenfelter and others in the K&N style because hey think that the SLP metal intake will heat up (people have measured temps inside and out, cold eninge and warm, it doesnt have anything but a minute effect), I liek the SLP and will prolly get it soon because it gets down away from the engine, is two smooth mandrel bent tubes flowing into a large (i believe 3 1/2") collector, and it also looks better. All can be had for around $200.

Or there's always the do it yourself home depot intake

Re: 3.8L V6 Intake?

What's wrong with Volkswagons performance wise? They make some pretty quick cars, plus I've seen some modded to high hell that could put camaros to shame.

Sure they can be in the same sentence, like this one:

'My new VW has such poor performance a 20 year old Camaro beat the tar out of it last night after givign me a head start.'

Re: 3.8L V6 Intake?

How come so many people here are anti-everything except for camaros? Why is it so unbelievable for other cars that aren't necesarily "performance" cars to still be fast or at least made fast? I mean don't get me wrong I love f-bodys in general and most are fast as hell, but I still realize that newer cars are utilizing new technology so they can be fast with less.

Re: 3.8L V6 Intake?

Ok fine, ban me for expressing my opinion, but there are stock jettas that will smoke your 3.8's. But I guess that's not as embarrasing as losing to a ranger...
