lol true...hopefully it will get people's attention because I'm about to rip it open later tonight and hope I don't mess it up. I have a race at outlaws with a buddy of mine sunday so I need this done asap. Worse case scenario I pay friday for someone to do it for me

Nooo don't pay, it's sooo easy, just use the guide from www.installuniversity.com and save yourself $25 bucks.1998 Arctic White Camaro<br />3.8L V6 M5<br />Flowmaster 80 Series with 3\" tips<br />Whisper Lid w/ K&N<br />Flowtech Cutout<br />Free-Ram Air Mod<br />Blue Underbody Neon Kit<br />3 MTX 6000 10\" Subs<br />Rockford 800a2 Amp<br /><a href=\"http://photos.yahoo.com/jeep327\" target=\"_blank\">My Camaro</a>

Do it yourself.
Go to the install university link.
If you pay someone $25 to do the free ram air mod doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose?Race car - gone but not forgotten - 1997 firebird V6

true. Just one question...what can I use to cut the plastic. I don't have access to anything other than a razor blade. HELP PLEASE. Plus will this mod cause problems with sucking up water?
being in college kinda limits me to the resources that I have around me

A razor blade should work fine for the soft plastic shroud over the radiator. The airbox will be a PITA to cut with a razor blade. I used a jigsaw on both of the cars I did this to (which is the proper tool to use). I guess you can try scoring it with the razor blade, then bending/breaking off the plastic.Matt<br />2000 Firebird<br /><br /><a href=\"http://www.fullthrottlev6.com/forums/index.php?\" target=\"_blank\">FullThrottleV6.com</a>

I'd have to suggest a utility knife or a cheap hacksaw that only has a handle on one end and only holds the blade on the end. Either of those is less than $5 and come in very handy when in college specially if your an architecture student.1997 Nassau Blue Vette<br />1989 Jeep Cherokee 4x4 (lifted with 31\" tires)<br />2000 V6 Camaro, loud, cammed 210rwhp *SOLD*

The saw with a handle on one end works great. Make the 2 short cuts with it. Then, if you have a box cutter or x-acto knife, you can probably get away with scoring the long cut and snap the whole piece out.
First I took a drill to the corners, so I didn't have to match the cuts exactly, and to avoid having a 90 degree corner that could crack later. Not essential, especially if you don't have a drill...\'98 A4 Camaro v6->v8 conversion, and STS kit next<br />v6: 13.6 Powerdyne, 13.2 150 shot, 13.8 120 shot, 14.3 85 shot, 15.7 stock<br />v8(na): 12.18@113, 392rwhp<br />Moderator on <a href=\"http://www.mtfba.org\" target=\"_blank\">www.mtfba.org</a> and <a href=\"http://www.frrax.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.frrax.com</a> (Road Race & Autocross)<br /><a href=\"http://community.webshots.com/user/johnduncan10\" target=\"_blank\">Car pics</a>, <a href=\"http://www.trscca.com\" target=\"_blank\">TN Region SCCA</a>

well the saw was impossible to cut across with. I cut down the 4 sides and i just can't get the ends...oh well...for easter I'm heading back home where my father has a dremel that he said I can use. That should take the ***** off in no time. [img]smile.gif[/img] I'll get that done friday...just in time for my sunday race. [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]
