I remember my Brother bought a Baha kit from his VW from them in the 70's. He also ran into the bankruptcy issue Z28pete mention. They must have done the re-org thing. He did get his kit but it took almost a year.It was JC Whitney Cause we got their Catalog for years after that. I think I was 13 at the time. Man, I use read that thing cover to cover. Yes kids, be glad you have the internet.
The turbo thing can speed up the air as it enters the motor but if its not a straight shot into the valve the air will loose its small boost it had. Since almost all Camaro's has several "turns" the air must make before it get to the valve you will see no gain. Infact it could restrict air flow at the higer RPMs. If you intrested in how it work just look up how the wing on an airplane speeds up the air or lookup Venturi effect.

Ah, this thread takes me back! That catalog was kinda cool. I remember reading those things in the '70's and thinking that they must have a warehouse the size of New York; but, I never did order anything from them. I had a '70 Dodge Superbee w/a 383 in the late '70's. it was "hemi" orange with white stripes and the 'bee" decals on each side. It had factory ram air hood with two scoops and an air box with a tray that fit on top of the factory holley carb. We used to make our own nitrous setups out of 1" carb spacer plates. Ah, the good old pre responsibility days.
