  4. Nice, I saw a Camaro that had been Trans Am'd at a car show a couple of years back. It was a Bandit car right down to the screaming chicken on the hood that was hand painted, duel tipped exhaust, and gold snowflake wheels that were 18".

  5. Okay, I'll ask. What's going on with that tube thing in the front? Not big enough to be a super charger. And in the wrong place to be a turbo.

    1. Cold air intake. Throttle body is right behind it. Square doohicky is mass airflow sensor.

    2. I have seen cold air intakes on other cars (especially aftermarket styles). The whole idea of moving away from a standard system, as well as it's usual location, is to obtain, . . . cold air . . . . [rather than the warmer air nearer the engine; it is desired to have colder air (more dense, therefore, more oxygen, therefore additional power, etc.)]. But, . . . in this case, it's just taking air from the usual location. Correct?

    3. The cold air intake is plumbed to the shaker and pulls outside air from the cowl area through the (open) back of the shaker, like the original T/A shakers.
