Redline Motorsports High Capacity Cold Air Intake System

Well we just started fabricating a cold air system for the ZL1. These are some prototype pictures thus far!







In prior testing on CTSV based LSA engines we have seen a easy 30-40 RWHP gain with proper engine management calibrating...

Will update shortly!

We already tested a similar cold air kit design a few days ago. We saw a loss in power due to the AF ratios going fat. Cold air kits for this car will need a tune to go with it.

I have heard of other companies seeing great gains with cold air intakes on the ZL1 so 30-40 is very reasonable.

Maybe you should put the factory box back on so you can get out of the 12s?
