Meh nothing as cool as a vintage 1st or 2nd Gen camaro. I have a 3rd Gen... a 91 RS to be exact. I know the effects of loss of vacuum to the A/C and ...

MAn, I would spend the money and even buy a knock-off from ebay..mine was only about $40 shipped. Then just make your own mounting flange. I think tuning and...
... Run an auto tranny and you won't need a blow off valve. If you run a stick, you lift to shift, and dump your turbo. Big waste. Run an auto and don't...
