C6 Ram Air Kit


Our Ram Air intakes are all about improving airflow to your Corvette's engine. It's just a matter of superior design. Better airflow translates into a noticeable increase in power, acceleration and most importantly...bragging rights.

Any power modifications (i.e., cylinder heads, camshaft, headers, exhaust, programming, etc.) that increases horsepower output demand the higher airflow capacity of the Ram Air intake.

Back it up with test results. Airflow test Results for the C6 Corvette flowed 35% more airflow than the original factory intake system. The chassis dyno tests indicated an increase of 15 rwhp on an otherwise-stock LS2. The C6 Ls3 performance increased by 35 rwhp. All that by installing the Ram Air intake into a stock C6 coupe.

35rwhp? That almost seems too good to be true.
If that's really the case, why did GM make such a restrictive design from the factory. That's killing their hp figures and their gas mileage.

Not tryin to bash or anything, but I've nber seen "ram air" pick up power on a dyno...
Also I don't see how sucking hot air off the radiator picks up power? Is there a scoop that goes to the grill that I'm not seeing like the Vararam kit?

Ram Air did a YouTube video a month ago and they just finished editing it down. They installed the Ram Air “Hammerhead” intake on a Grand Sport C6 and made +23 rwhp without a tune and with a tune made +54 rwhp.

The weather was 95F / 85% humidity in Houston (not the best for getting big numbers). Again these numbers only show the airflow improvement and not the actual ram air benefit we offer. This was also a completely independent test. Ram Air supplied the intake and installed it, but the dyno, and tuning were done by 510 Race Engineering.



Here is a link to the video:

Default Power output

Well I have one of these on my car and it did 602 hp and 562 ft pounds of tq NA on a dyno that a stock Z does 425 hp and 400 hp. Not sure how it would compare with other filters but certainly can handle a large volume of air. The filer is really big at 18 x 9 inches. Fit and finish is pretty good too.

I bought one of these for my LS2....No instructions came in the box...I called Houston to ask them to send me a set....What an a$$Hole....He could have cared less. Finally got a photocopy of the destructions...the images were so poor as to be useless...

Long story short....The Ram Air SS is still in the box, in my garage.....
