Performance Cold Air Intake System for 2009–2015 CTS-V 6.2L V8 – Increased Power & High-Flow Induction
Unlock the true potential of your CTS-V’s supercharged engine with this precision-engineered cold air intake system. Designed specifically for the 6.2L V8, this kit replaces the restrictive factory air box that limits airflow and muffles the engine's natural performance. Whether you are pushing the limits on the track or seeking smoother power delivery during your daily commute, this upgrade provides the high-velocity induction path needed for peak efficiency and a significantly more engaging driving experience.
The factory intake components often prioritize silence at the cost of performance, creating bottlenecks that prevent the engine from breathing to its full capacity. By drawing in a larger volume of cooler, oxygen-rich air, this system eliminates those restrictions. This ensures that throttle response remains sharp and immediate, resulting in up to a 10% boost in horsepower and torque that you can feel every time you press the accelerator.

What's Included
Your kit features the high-velocity induction piping, a reusable high-flow performance air filter, a specialized heat shield, and all required couplers, clamps, and hardware for a complete and secure installation.
Installation Tip
Disconnect the NEGATIVE GROUND CABLE from the battery before starting the installation and keep it off for at least 60 seconds after you finish. This reset allows the engine's computer (ECU) to recalibrate for the increased airflow parameters. Ensure the engine is completely cool before beginning work.
