6in Velocity Stack & Filter
For 3in Diameter Intakes
New results require new ideas. Thats why we took a somewhat
unconventional approach when it came time to design our k-swap cold
air intake. Our hope was to provide something that could improve
upon the performance and appearance of competing cold air
intakesand the finished product is just that. What we ended up with
was a true 3 intake that does a better job of keeping your intake
charge cool and your engine bay looking hot.
The most obvious feature on this intake is the 100%
glass-reinforced silicone construction. By using silicone, we were
able to create an intake that actually insulates the air going into
the engine. For k-swaps, this is particularly important since most
setups put the cold air intake directly behind the radiator. What
many people dont consider is that since aluminum is such a
fantastic thermal conductor (hence why it is used in radiators), an
aluminum cold air intake will actually absorb heat given off by the
radiator. This increases the intake air temperature while
decreasing the motors performance. The silicone counteracts this by
acting as a thermal barrier (much like header wrap)...this leads to
lower intake air temps and a denser intake charge. Another benefit
of the silicone construction is that there is no need for a coupler
at the throttle body. The intake connects to the throttle body with
just a single t-bolt clamp, meaning less turbulence as air enters
the intake manifold.
A less noticeable but very important feature of this intake is
that it works with RBC, RRC, and
PRB intake manfiolds. Most competing k-swap intakes
work with either the PRB intake manifold or the
RBC/RRC intake manifolds, but not both.
We took the extra time to create an intake that would work with all
3! We know that many k-swaps start out with a PRB
manifold and are later upgraded to take advantage of the more
desirable RBC and RRC manifolds. We
wanted to take the cost of a new cold air intake out of that
equation, meaning more money in your pockets. On top of that, we
designed this kit to work with OEM k-series throttle
bodies AND big bore throttle bodies. The included
t-bolt clamp is custom designed to fit both applications.
And who can forget about looksEveryone knows that with k-swaps,
making power and going fast is the name of the game, but looking
good while you do it doesnt hurt either. Thats why we made this one
of the cleanest looking intakes on the market. When installed, only
the intake tube and a single t-bolt clamp are visible. The hanger
that attaches to the chassis is neatly tucked into the drivers side
fender for the cleanest install possible. Available colors include
black, gray, and purple.
