3800 Series Camaro Intake System

[The_Underdawg]

I have a 96' 3800 series Camaro with dual flowmaster (not true dual) and was wanting to put a K&N Cold Air Intake on it. A friend of mine told me about Corvettes having a Twin Air Intake system and that I should get one placed on my car and put dual Cold-Air. Is this possible and if it is then will that increase the power and/or gas mileage? Another thing, could it possibly hurt my engine with 2 Cold-Air Intake systems by making the engine too cold?

I've never heard of dual CAIs on a camaro. I saw it on a viper once.. You won't have to worry about your engine getting too cold, the more intake the better:)
I mostly think it would be unecessary. I would assume your friend is talking about the new corvettes with the LS7s, and that viper i saw with the 8.0L, those cars have huge engines and could benifit from the extra CAI. I just wouldn't think you would be getting anything more out of dual CAIs, and you would most likely have to fabricate it yourself.

Dual cold air would be overkill. You can find a ram air or cold air package for our cars that would be just as efficent as you constructing your own dual CAI

the slp has 2 tubes, so its pretty much the same thing.

Re: 3800 Series Camaro Intake System

you could piece something together but you could just make a single tube system or buying somthing and see the same gains and gas mileage increase. You defintaly do not have to worry about making your engine too cold. I don't know who told you that but no.

isn't the slp twin intake for the 98+'s? either way any cai works the same as long as it's a cai
