Default Anyone have an OEM C6 intake for loan or purchase?

Just purchased my 2010 C6 Z06 from Texas but it has a borla exhaust and vararam intake. Does anyone have an OEM intake I could borrow/rent/purchase? Im in DTLA. Also, do you guys think I need to take off the Borla too? Or will that be ok to leave on. Thanks.

I got one. Pristine condition. Off of a 2007 ZO6. It probably has less than 2000 miles on it.

The Borla will be fine if it's a cat-back or axle-back system. But if it replaces the stock manifolds or catalytic converters, then expect smog issues.

It wont be flagged because its an aftermarket exhaust right?

You got an exhaust fix-it ticket?

If the exhaust doesn't replace or relocate the stock manifolds or catalytic converters, you will be fine for smog inspection. I can't be any more clear than this.

If it is a car back system you will be fine but you do need to borrow an intake.

If all you need is the air cleaner bridge, I have an extra. Unfortunately, it does not have a filter element though.
