- Welcome back everyone, today we do some upgrades to the Camaro. We have a Cold Air Intake, Oil Catch Cans, and an Axle back exhaust. All the parts are from Mishimoto. Way different sound, Its like a whole new car. We have before and after clips at the end.

Good stuff bro, great job in the installs. So happy to see there are couples out there sharing the same passion. My wife refuses to ride with me. She’s still upset that I bought my dream car, 2018 ZL1... with my own money and making my own payments!! You guys keep it up and may you both have memorable times together.
Thanks, yeah it turned out great. It took a few years but she has come around and now we have fun with the cars together. The first thing she actually liked was going to races, so if I were to give a pointer it would be to go check out some races. Haha Hopefully she comes around so you guys can both enjoy that car.
Women get jealous when you get a hot car...1. They get nervous that the car may get all your attention. 2. They get nervous that it will attract other women....Let her drive it (with you in the car) once they get that power in their hands you can't keep them out of it...then they understand...well at least in my experience. 😉
It’s a sleeper for sure!!! Exhaust will be the same no matter what you do . That’s why I settled for the muffler delete . 4 banger Maro is quick and turns heads
Yeah, the sound has really grown on us over the past few months to where we both really like it.
Oh boy good that sounds good .I'ma need everything you got. I want to set mine exactly the same .perfect
Thanks! We really like it! No regrets here
It sounds great!
Thank you!
I like it!
Thanks! Me too.
Hey man! Great video! I have installed the Mishimoto cold air intake on my '19. Have you noticed a giant difference as the turbo spools up? I didn't really hear it from your interior shots post install. Mine is crazy loud on the spool, and I am not so super happy with it. I do not have a new exhaust yet, but I upgraded my stereo to cover the noise for me. If I drive with no stereo, I still hear it. I can only describe it like loud tearing of paper. I heard the blow off from the turbo in the video, but did not really hear the spool up. I'm just worried I did something wrong on the install, but per Mishimoto customer support, if no check engine lights come on, then it is good to go. Just curious if you experienced the same thing.
Thanks! Oh yeah I definitely hear what you are talking about. Plenty of noise on spool up. I think it’s normal, but it’s surprising for sure. I had it on for a while before with the stock exhaust and it was pretty loud, in my opinion the exhaust kinda helps because you have more noise to go with it.( But I do like some noise to my cars,lol). When my wife first started driving it at night she said she thought it sounded like something was rubbing but now I just asked and she says she hardly notices it now.
@@tackettgarage4982 Cool man! Thanks for the reply. I just wasn't sure if I had done something wrong.
@Kaiser Zayn why in the fuck would you do that?
I have a '16 2.0 and mines does that same weird rumble shake in the lower rpms, but it goes away when I accelerate a little harder. Does a warranty cover a transmission fluid change?
So mine was covered for a fluid change (which did fix it) but I was under the 3 years 36000 mile warranty. Being a 16 I don’t know if the factory warranty is still valid, but Chevy has a technical service bulletin for it so I would think a extended warranty would cover. Put probably another 30k on it since the fluid change and still good so worth looking in to for sure:
I like this I have a turbo Camaro as well customizing it on my channel but not sure what else to add since not sure of what you can do to a I4 turbo Camaro,I got a
K&n intake , with a muffler delete
Thanks, they are fun cars and relatively easy to work on. If you do much more mod wise it’s probably time to start with tuning, I hear it makes a huge difference especially with any mods past the intake an muffler. If I wasn’t worried about smog my next power mods would probably be down pipe, upgraded inter cooler and piping, and a tune.
@@tackettgarage4982 You don't actually need a tune (which is very risky with this engine)...I went with a RS Racechip as a piggyback in addition to Rev 9 intercooler, ZZP catted downpipe, ZZP larger throttle body, Flowtech muffler delete, GFB Diverter valve, KN air filter, and a Pedalmax Throttle Controller...has transformed this car into a mean little sports car.
Great video!! I have a muffler delete with cold air intake. You can see it on my page . Overall well done!!!
Thanks! It’s a great combo, makes driving the car more pleasing when it sounds as good as it looks.lol.
Any idea what the HP increase was for what you added?
I haven’t actually had it on a Dino or anything. But feel of the seat it seems a bit more responsive, like the turbo might spool a little faster. From what I have read it’s the down pipe and a tune that starts to make a big difference.
Do you have big brakes in the front? Did you install them yourself or is this the 1LE package?
Yep we have the big brembos in the front. It was actually a dealer installed option.
@@tackettgarage4982 nice! Wish I had them on my 2.0 too!
Yeah they are great, only bad thing is they dust like crazy. Totally worth it though.
Down pipe is the way to go but you living in California I believe breaks all regulations.
Yeah a downpipe would be pretty awesome, but yeah California sometimes limits the fun.lol
@@tackettgarage4982 like your build , I had stopped on mines had some things come up but looks like this summer I might be getting back to putting some more upgrades
Thanks, it started out as my fun daily and turned in to my wife’s fun daily.haha. Yeah always nice to be able to do a couple upgrades here and there, for me I fall in love with the cars all over again. Not sure what we will do next on the Camaro, would love to do some more engine mods and a tune but the California thing slows me down there. Maybe some coil overs or something like that. Not really anything that I don’t like about it at the moment other than you can never have too much power.lol
Has your check engine light come on from the cold air intake yet?
It has come on a couple times, but has turned itself back out on the next drive, I want to get a tune to take care of that eventually
@@tackettgarage4982 appreciate it! Been considering one just don’t wanna deal with the light.
No problem, hasn’t been a big deal on ours, we can go months without seeing it. Seems like it happens more when it gets below/close to freezing outside.
@tackettgarage4982 they say to unplug the Battery when doing CAIs to prevent check engine lights
What intake is this? Can you add link?
It’s the Mishimoto cold air intake. Here is the link.

Sounds like a Honda civic with a deep roar, lol..
I’m good with that, can’t ask for much better out of a 4 banger camaro.
Could you add the link for the pipes
Here you go, this is the link to the kit on the Mishimoto site.

Has anyone had codes after CAI installation??
I get a code every once in a while during the cold months, I forget the actual code because it doesn’t happen very often and the last time turned out before I could read it but it says something about switching from lean to rich. I want to get a tune before too long to correct for it but not a big deal it’s warm most of the year here.
Why the oil catch cans?
They help catch the oil before it goes through the intake. This helps keep the intake valves cleaner which is a bigger concern on the newer engines with direct gas injection motors.
Anyone have a link to the exhaust??
Here you go.

not gunna lie all i did was cut the muffler off and it sounds amazing lol
That is all it takes.haha
Did you get a check engine light?
@@bricemayhem3219 no
@@bricemayhem3219 I didn’t. I’ve had mine done for almost a year.
@@girlwitcamaro1119 tired of mines I want some v8 power now
I want turbo flutter
It definitely takes the sound of the ear to a whole new level.haha
Bro you probably should have brother the camera over when u was putting the intake inn that view for that wasn’t that good
Yeah we are always learning how to make our content better. Thanks for watching.
