Cold air intakes

I just want to know what CAI you Gen5camaro members are using and what is your thoughts on them. Florida members, do you get the fine sand in the intake? If you don't know please check. Thanks.

most are running Cold Air Inductions (CAI) or RotoFab. Both very popular. I have the Rotofab with my SLP TVS2300, no issues, tuned and running like a charm.

Cold Air Inductions for me. According to Phastek, it's their most popular one. It was actually sold out from them, so I had to buy mine from Amazon.

This depends if you plan on staying N/A or F/I? If staying N/A, then look at the Vararam intake. If going F/I, then look at ADM, Cold Air Inductions, Roto-Fab, or Z/28 intake.

Cold Air Inductions here. Love the look over the Vararam, thats honestly why I chose it. I'll sacrifice a few HP for something that looks better in my opinion

Solid vendors named on the post.
We offer our Windstorm brand and it has been very popular since release.
Keep in mind we support most CAI's with our MyCal's too
Good quality filters should prevent that fine sand "JLGO"

Cold Air Inductions and Roto-Fab are our top sellers. If you're worried about sand stay with the oiled filter. We always have both in stock.
