unless you dont have the factory intake, then there is nothing you can do. the tpi intake on the camaro is cold air. it draws it in from the area in front of the radiator. now yes it is a little flat in the middle, but it needs to clear the hood, so there isnt much you can do. however, inside the air filter housing, there are small little louvers under the filter that are designed to keep larger things out. if you remove them, it creates a straighter shot of air, but dont count on making any sort of hp improvement
