  • Which would you do?

    I can only afford one right now. Either CAI or catback. Which would be better?

    I loved my exhaust, but in some ways, I wish I had done the intake first.

            Your exhaust will sound like crap if your intake isn't modded.

              My exhaust sounded fine, still does, and I really don't have intake mods, I just removed the air silencer and did free ram air.

                Have you had someone drive your car while you listen to it from the rear? I put my stock lid back on one day to take it to the dealer. When he test drove it, I heard my exhaust and it sounded like garbage. This was with the dynomax I had. When I put the whisper lid back on, it sounded so much better. Get a lid man. You won't regret it.

                  I don't think they make a lid for my car. I have a '96.

                    I believe you are correct (98+ for lids). Go with the SLP CIA or K&N Hi-flow intake. Both will yield similar gains.

                      I was referring to camarorulz's ride.

                        Go with the intake for sure first. I saw K$N on sale in the sponsor links, like $179, for the set up.

                          These are your mods: 1996 Camaro RS, A4, 3.42 Gears, K&N Filter, Flowmaster Muffler, Y87 Performance Package

                          You have a flowmaster.

                          Go with the cold air induction first.

                            I have the flowmaster muffler. I want a catback though.
