The Roto-fab cold air intake for the 2014-15 Chevrolet SS Sedan will add horsepower and give your car an awesome sound. This cold air intake system does not fit the Camaro SS! This unit installs with basic tools, requires absolutely no modifications to your car and performs well with the stock vehicle calibration. Drivability is excellent and the sound is throaty under aggressive acceleration. Under normal cruising conditions, the sound is comparable to stock. In our testing, the Roto-fab cold air intake picked up 11 RWHP over the stock system in hood closed dyno testing.
The SS Sedan proved to be very challenging in terms of keeping air intake temps as low as possible. The Roto-fab Pontiac G8 GT cold air intake performs great and is extremely popular; therefore, we didn't want to stray too much from the basic design for the Chevrolet SS Sedan.
However, the hood strut and hood liner design made it nearly impossible to effectively seal to the hood. On both the G8 and SS Sedan , its crucial to isolate engine compartment air from the filter. With our G8 system, intake temps jumped over 20F simply by pulling the hood latch which creates a small gap between the hood seal of our box and the hood liner! For these reasons, we elected to use an enclosed box for the SS sedan with the air entry located lower and on the outboard side of the frame.
In addition to an effective air box design, we supply a polymer heat shield which mates up to the air box to further isolate hot engine bay air from the entry of the air box. The shield rests on the frame rail, extending forward to the core support and rearward towards the inner fender area.
To access the filter, our air box features an aluminum and polycarbonate lid which hinges from the back of the air box. Like the air box itself, the design features of the lid help achieve the goal of isolating the filter from engine/radiator heat.
The duct work to the throttle body starts with a velocity stock duct section which fastens to the air box via five molded in brass inserts and stainless steel screws. The filter side has a huge 6 inch diameter clamping surface which accepts our oversize filter. Passing through the air box, the duct features a generous radius which transitions to 4.25 inch to accept the OEM MAF sensor.
On the engine side of the MAF sensor we use a high gloss black silicone hump hose to absorb motor rock. Next is our inlet elbow which has nearly a 4 inch ID, a generous radius throughout its length and a molded in brass bung to accept the PCV hose fitting. Our inlet elbow OD is larger than the OD of the throttle body; therefore, we use a high gloss black silicone reducing coupler to join the throttle body.
Stainless steel hose clamps and a silicone PCV hose complete the system. From start to finish, Roto-fab has strived to provide the highest quality products possible in a package that performs well, looks good and fits your car as it should.

Roto-Fab began designing and manufacturing aftermarket automotive components in 1998 on a private label basis. After nearly a decade, the company introduced its first Roto-Fab branded products to the public, which were successfully accepted among the car enthusiasts all over the United States. Consequently, the company experienced a tremendous amount of growth in just a few short years.
As its growth continues, consumers can rest assured that Roto-Fab will never lose sight of individual customer service both before your purchase and after. The brand takes customer satisfaction and word of mouth very seriously, as both have been its greatest marketing asset to date.
Roto-Fab is dedicated to providing its customers with products that both maximize the performance and sound of their vehicles, while also enhancing underhood aesthetics. All of its products are crafted in-house in Roto-Fab’s complete metal fabrication shop as well as two plastic molding machines. Having these grants Roto-Fab the flexibility to manufacture its own plastic and metal molds and tooling right in its own facility. This unique freedom is what really sets Roto-Fab apart from other companies out there.
Roto-Fab’s design approach is fairly simple, yet effective. The brand strives to design the best products possible with little regard to tooling expenses or manufacturing difficulty. It takes pride in providing truly custom components that are a direct fit and perform seamlessly. In order to ensure every Roto-Fab product is a perfect fit, it starts as a hand-made working prototype that is refined until the desired level, fitment, and appearance are achieved. The final prototype is then reverse engineered to create fixtures and tooling for production. The result is a final product that spotlights all the features of a “one-off” hand-fabricated unit.
With Roto-Fab’s proven parts, you are getting products that are a perfect fit, perform well, and install easily without any modifications. This is true for all of Roto-Fab’s air intakes, filters, engine covers, fuse box covers, plenum covers, and more! Vivid Racing is proud to carry an impressive lineup of Roto-Fab products that include cold air intakes, air filters, radiator and engine covers, oil caps, fuse boxes, clamps, and hoses.
