Description
【Solving Your Concerns】Why This Kit?
The Problem: The Gen 6 Camaro SS is highly sensitive to airflow changes. Poorly designed intake tubes cause air turbulence, leading to "Rough Idle" or "Check Engine Lights (CEL)" that ruin your driving experience.
The Flashark Solution: For the 6.2L LT1 V8, we utilize a massive 4-inch Precision Mandrel-Bent pipe. This keeps the internal diameter consistent through every curve, ensuring "Laminar Airflow" reaches your MAF sensor accurately.
The Result: Maximum power delivery with Zero Sensor Errors.
【Engineered Performance】Key Features
🔹 4" Oversized Performance Tubing
Crafted from lightweight T-6061 aluminum, the 4-inch diameter is specifically sized to meet the high airflow demands of the 6.2L V8. The smooth-bore interior eliminates the air-friction found in factory plastic corrugated hoses.
🔹 Steel Heat Shield (Anti-Heat Soak)
V8 engines generate massive amounts of heat. Our heavy-duty steel heat shield walls off the air filter from the engine bay, ensuring the intake draws in cooler, denser air for more explosive combustion.
🔹 High-Flow Washable Dry Filter
The included red cone filter features advanced "Dry Media" that requires No Oiling. This ensures your expensive Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor stays clean and functional while providing 99% filtration efficiency.
🔹 Aggressive V8 Roar
Unlock the true sound of the LT1. This intake system amplifies the deep, muscular induction note under hard acceleration, giving your Camaro SS the aggressive voice it deserves.

【The Science】How It Works
The factory Camaro SS airbox is built for silence, not speed. The Flashark Elite system removes these restrictions. By shielding the filter from engine heat and providing a straight, 4-inch wide-bore path, air enters the cylinders at a much higher velocity. Since cold air is denser and carries more oxygen, your ECU optimizes the fuel map for instant throttle response, higher torque, and a true seat-of-the-pants power boost.
FAQ For 2016-2019 Camaro SS Cold Air Intake
Q1: Will this cold air intake fit my 2016 Camaro SS?
A1: Yes! This Flashark kit is meticulously engineered as a direct-fit upgrade for 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019 Chevrolet Camaro SS models equipped with the 6.2L LT1 V8 engine.
Q2: Will installing this Camaro SS cold air intake cause a Check Engine Light (CEL)?
A2: No, it will not. We specifically designed our massive 4-inch mandrel-bent tubing to maintain consistent, "Laminar Airflow." This ensures your factory Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor reads the incoming air accurately, giving you maximum power with absolutely zero sensor errors or rough idling.
Q3: Does this 6.2L V8 intake kit require a custom tune after installation?
A3: No custom tuning is required. This is a simple bolt-on upgrade. Your Camaro's factory ECU is smart enough to automatically adjust the fuel map to accommodate the denser, high-velocity airflow, delivering an instant power boost right out of the box.
Q4: How does this intake kit improve my car's performance?
A4: The factory airbox and corrugated hoses are highly restrictive and create air friction. By replacing them with our oversized 4" smooth-bore aluminum tubing and shielding the intake from engine heat, cold and dense air rushes into your cylinders faster. This results in instant throttle response, increased torque, and a noticeable gain in horsepower.
Q5: Will this upgrade change the sound of my engine?
A5: Absolutely. Factory airboxes are built to muffle sound. Our open-element design and high-flow tubing unlock a deep, aggressive V8 induction roar. You will hear a distinctly muscular tone, especially under hard acceleration.
Q6: How do I clean the included filter? Do I need to buy filter oil?
A6: You do not need to buy filter oil! Our kit includes a premium "Dry Media" washable filter. To clean it, simply remove it, gently tap out loose dust, wash it with a mild soap and water solution, let it air dry completely, and reinstall. The dry design guarantees no oil will ever foul your sensitive MAF sensor.
Q7: Why does this cold air intake include a heavy-duty steel heat shield?
A7: The 6.2L V8 generates massive amounts of heat, which can lead to "heat soak" (breathing in hot, less-dense air that robs power). Our steel heat shield creates a barrier between the blazing engine bay and your air filter, ensuring the engine draws in only cooler, denser air for explosive combustion.
Q8: How difficult is the installation process? Can I do it myself?
A8: Installation is very straightforward and perfect for DIYers. The kit comes complete with the intake pipe, heat shield, silicone couplers, clamps, and all necessary hardware. Using basic hand tools, you can easily complete the swap in your driveway in about 30 to 45 minutes.
Q9: Is this Flashark cold air intake CARB approved for use in California?
A9: No. As noted in our specifications, this product is NOT CARB exempt. It is strictly not for sale or use in California (or other states adopting California emission standards) on pollution-controlled motor vehicles.
