i think they look way better then the cavy/sunfire but i still don’t like the back/round tailights. & i don’t like how they have 2 versions of the SS… N/A is S/C…personally think they should have 2 different names for them…like a GT & SS or something?? ---

I agree, way better than the Sunfire/Cavy. I also agree on the name, imagine if they had made a V6 Camaro SS. ---

I don’t really like that they have 2 versions either, I would have liked to see a return of Chevy’s RS badging, but alas they pulled the same thing with the Monte Carlo a few years ago with the SS and then the SS Supercharged. ssdragon, are you and I the only crossovers from [css.net](http://css.net)? ---

well im not ready for the springs yet the turbo is what im putting all my money aside for right now, i wanted the short ram on purpose but i did remove all the plastic junk out of behind the fender covers, in these cars i dont think one is better than the other and i get plenty of airflow to the short ram since ive felt there after running and theres not much hot air at all and the shorter tube gives better throttle response imo ---

nah wait until winter’s over and slap the rest of that intake pipe on, you’ll be glad you did I’m running my intake in my engine bay now and it sucks once the engine warms up it’s tough to run it in the fenderwell in the winter, slush will clog that shit up in a minute and choke your engine. you’ll be thankful running only a few degrees above ambient in the summer though ---
