This intake is ported by Chuy's Porting and Performance and ships directly from Chuy once complete (estimated 3-5 business day lead time).
IMPORTANT NOTE: With GM's discontinuation of the 2007-2009 intake casting, we are now using 2010-2013 intake castings. These castings are identical with two small exceptions: the new casting uses a removable PCV fitting/hose AND uses the Gen IV style MAP sensor. These intakes require the 2010-2013 style map retainer and are NOT compatible with the 2007-2009 TBSS MAP retainer clips.
TUNING WILL BE REQUIRED.
Average power gains reported are 18-25 HP over an unported TBSS intake.Â

This is one of the highest flowing factory intakes available for the LSX engine platform. Originally equipped on the 6.0L LS2 Trailblazer SS, this intake is known for its ability to support huge top end power, while maintaining low and midrange torque. A common upgrade for 99-07 Silverado, this intake has significant gains on the 4.8, 5.3, and 6.0 engine displacements. This intake is compatible with the OEM cathedral port cylinder heads found on GEN III truck engines, such as the LQ4, LQ9, LM7, and others. Suitable for any cathedral port LSX based project or restomod, and the best bang-for-buck intake manifold upgrade out there.
