  • SLP CAI installation questions

    How long does it take to install and is it hard to do? What problems did you have with it?

    Its really easy, if you have a dremel. It took me about an hour, given it was my first time doing it. I never ran into any problems, just follow the directions it comes with and you will be fine.

      It's very easy to do. It shouldn't take you more than 30 minutes.

      I had a problem with my install though. I don't know how the throttle body differs from the years, But I had a hard time getting the rubber elbow part over the SLP piping. The cones will also be a tight fit.

      Good luck

        I did mine yesterday (I have a 3.8) and had absolutely no problems. Only tools I needed were a ratchet and a flathead screwdriver. Its fits a bit tight, but its nothing a little manhandling can't fix! :D

          Did mine on a 3.4 camaro. had to cut the intake sleave with a razor on the bottom to fit it. Tried everything as a lube. Had to buy a bigger hose clamp. Runs awsome

              It's pretty easy. I did mine in about an hour and a half, and I took my time with it. The only tools you'll need are a drill and a jigsaw. When you go to drill the holes in the car, make sure the drill bit is about half the diameter of the screws. Other than that, you should have no problems. Have fun!

                  At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
                  Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...
