The sucking sound is more obvious than the 'test drive' last week between 3k-5k rpm and it pulls smoothly Worth the $$$, LOL


Mr.Fire, Seems the ZL1 is fast, but the production is slow...Don't worry, people pays $250k for a Ferrari and have to wait for 12 months, compare to them, GM is doing a VERY VERY good job
Sounds awesome, mr.alcheng!

How'd you know?!!

That intake looks awesome! SRI are very taboo for me on the Z. I would buy the R2C in a heartbeat, but other than throttle response I think people see a loss in power? IDK WHAT TO DO.... I don't want long tube intakes though

I honestly couldn't tell you as I haven't looked at them for awhile... In the $400-500 range?

R2C'are good too. i had them last year but sold. it has nice gains as far as response, but cai's in general were too noisy for me so i went with the HPS/K&N drop-ins setup. i might go back to stock tubes and just run K&N drop-ins. nothing wrong with the HPS, i dont sense any gains from the tubes alone so i rather have factory bits in this case.
