Preparation

Before starting, gather your tools: a 10mm socket wrench, 10mm box end wrench, Phillips screwdriver, and a trim removal tool. Also, have a flathead screwdriver and pliers on hand.

Set aside the stock intake components that you'll be removing, and consider using a rag or towel to prevent scratches.

Removal and Installation

Start by disconnecting the negative battery terminal. Remove the factory intake pipe and MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor, then separate the stock intake tubing and intake pipe.

Next, install the Mishimoto intake pipe, ensuring a secure fit. Replace the MAF sensor, reconnect the intake tubing, and reattach the factory bulkhead connector.

Double-check everything, and reattach the negative battery terminal. Your 2018 V6 Camaro is now enjoying the benefits of the Mishimoto Intake.

Experience the difference for yourself, and embrace the powerful, aggressive performance of your Camaro. Visit Mishimoto's site for more details and to purchase.
