Understood. Makes sense.

Is it a joke? It seems exaggerated, doesn't it? an air filter that sells it in its own manufacturer to improve performance, use it to limit the vehicle?

I don’t know now but long time the CAI was not CARB approved and therefore not for California. Now there is a California version. One in our forum bought several CAI and tested them. The EU Camaros can’t cope with a CAI without a tune. The results were power loss and with some even top speed loss to only about 210km/h. Up to now there is not even one with just a CAI.

No Camaro seat time, but.....



Weekend with friends at Copper Mountain, CO.

Wow that looks awesome. I am a bit jealous.
Is it on the right side a ski lift? That must be a very beautiful area.

Yes, it is. This is one of MANY sky resorts in Colorado. Obviously too early for skiiing.

GOOD MORNING.
INDICATES THAT I ALREADY INSTALLED EVERYTHING, DRLs, STRUCK BRACE, AND PERMORMANCE AIR INTAKE.
REGARDING THIS LAST INDICATE THAT YES I DID YOU 300KM AND VARIOUS START-UP TESTS 0-100KM / H, IN USA 0-60M / H, THE RESULT AFTER ABOUT 100KM WAS IMPROVED, INITIALLY, IT SEEMED THE CAR WITH A SLOWER START 0-100KM / H AT 5.6 ", TOO BUT AS I WAS BREAKING, I ARRIVED AT 4.2".
AS TO SPEED POINT, IN TWO OF OCCASIONS I REACHED 245KM /H Y 250KM /H, THING THAT DIDN'T MAKE A LOT OF EFFORT AS WITH THE OTHER FILTER, I CANNOT REACH MORE SPEED GIVEN THAT THE STRAIGHT LINE OF THE ROAD WAS ENDED TO REDUCE, ALL THIS WITH THE EXHAUST IN SILENT MODE, BECAUSE I DID NOT REMEMBER TO REMOVE IT.
FINALLY IT IS THAT I BELIEVE THAT THE ENGINE AND THE ECU ARE ADAPTING.
What I have also noticed is the rise of declines in the sound of the engine and I think THAT IN THE EXHAUST PIPE.

SOLEIL, REGARDING THE TESTS ON THE SPOT SPEED, PASSES THE 210KM / H OVERALLY

GRACIAS A TODOS POR VUESTRA AYUDA Y RESPUESTA, IRÉ COMENTADO LAS DISTINTAS IMPRESIONES SEGÚN VAYA EVALUADO.
SALUDOS

Hi Aki,
if I get you right you don’t feel any power loss or whatsoever. Are you planning to do a dyno? May I ask when and where did you buy the CAI?
By the way could you please write in small letter it is better readable instead of capital letters. Thank you.

[AKI.SILES]

Hi Jens.
First of all I apologize, because my English is very rusty. When it's a lot of text and I'm in a hurry I use the translator, but that translator is crap, I usually try hard and have no problem, Although I speak, understand and read quite english.
I use the online translator and I was in a hurry, so the text is in capital letters.

[AKI.SILES]

I indicate you; loss of power ?, I noticed it in the first 100km of the test,or so I think, as the engine went by it was better, more fluid, the tests were launched from 0 to 100km / h and that it reached 250km / h sometime.
In summary, more noise is very evident, top speed does not lose and I have to keep trying to observe the evolution.
If there was a loss of power, which I still don't know, it doesn't seem very obvious.
The dynamometer test would have to be done but I have to askin an appointment and I don't know when I will.

@Ric,
Did you purchased the OEM GM CAI? Did you have to give your VIN? I think the ECU is differently programmed between the US and EU. Who did your tune? You went to a GM steeler?
But than I don’t understand why it seems to work with Aki but not with the other guy?
Aki,
When you reached the 250km/h was it top speed or just the highway was too short. You should reach the 290km/h quite easily.
