Put a CAI on 2010 SS/RS and noticed a change immediately. I also changed the exhaust, but, the biggest single change was the Dyno tune. WOW now this is what GM should do from the factory. It just make me realize how much the computer can hold back the car with the GM programs.

So the test drive is now complete.

Like anything I felt like it made the SS more responsive I also get that feeling after washing it though, lol. But I can definitely feel a little something different, better. It brings out a little more of the engine noise which is a good thing too.

It is still pretty hot in around the filter, I am thinking that if I cut a hole in the wheel well and put a louvered cover there to keep out the crud it would suck in a bit of fresh air from outside. If you peek in the wheel well you can see the spot is just asking for it.
