Default Best Intake system for Z06

I just picked up my 2002 EB Z06 this weekend, What is the best intake system without cuting holes in the cover. :lol:

None if you don't want to tune. I had a blackwing and it raised my LTFT's so I had to go with a MAFT. Recently got rid of the BW and MAFT and went with the Vortex Rammer. You do have to cut a hole for that one though. I am sure you will get a vote for just about every intake on the market from people. Good luck :cheers:

Probably the one that's already on your car.

Do a search - this topic has had a lot of bandwidth, some of it good :)

You first need to decide if you want a top breather or a bottom breather, based on how much you drive in the rain, puddles etc. Then the cutting decision (which you have made) suggests a Blackwing or Halltech T1 for top breather duty and Vararam for bottom.

BTW you don't need tuning to put on a CAI. You need tuning if you want to squeeze the maximum potential out of the car, and for that I recommend LS1 Esit if you have a tuner with access to a dyno near you.

Just my .02.
