ZO6 air intake
My neighbor has a stock air intake off of his 09 and said if I wanted it ,I could have it.I have a 09 Coupe with the Z51 accessories.Would I get any increase in performance if i installed it on my car? Thanks for any replies. Rod

It may help a little. but biggest difference between the z06 intake and the stock ls3 is the z06 does not have the silencer box on it. I would take it and put it on my car if only to clean up the look of the engine bay.

I did this. They use the same air filter and the intakes have the same profile so the flow between the two will be basically similar. You'll lighten your car by a few pounds. I don't hear any difference in the sound that it makes, though it would be hard to hear any change over the NPPs. But I agree with Tikiman that it helps significantly clean up the look of the engine bay.

yes it will flow a bit better. If you decide to put a new filter - the ZR1 will fit, and was tested but to make a couple hp over the original ls3/ls7 piece.
