The 250-274 AIRAID MXP performance air intake system delivers horsepower and acceleration gains (12.13 HP on the dyno) for certain 2014–2019 Chevy Corvette 6.2L models. Its two-piece, roto-molded replacement air box addresses all the shortcomings of the restrictive factory design, with a premium AIRAID air filter for outstanding air flow and filtration.

This easy-to-install system directs air through a precision computer-modeled air intake tube constructed of cross-linked, high-density polyethylene designed to maintain proper mass air flow readings and calibration. The heat-shielded air intake tube and integrated velocity stack further promote airflow, with provisions for the factory mass air sensor and PCV lines.

Together, these features create a potent increase in airflow while maintaining proper air-to-fuel ratios (no recalibration needed after installation—just bolt it on and go!). Backed by AIRAID’s No Hassle Lifetime Warranty.

Note: Not legal for sale or use in California. Not compatible with 2015–2019 Z06 or 2019 ZR1 models.

Features

  • Red oiled premium air filter recommended for dusty, dry driving conditions.
  • Superior horsepower and acceleration gains.
  • Replaces stock intake tubing, air filter, and air box.
  • Easy to install using commonly available tools.
  • High-airflow washable and reusable air filter media.
  • MXP air box incorporates a window for filter inspection.
  • Installation: 90 minutes with basic tools.
  • Warranty: No Hassle Lifetime.

SA Design (SA462): CarTech’s “High-Performance Automotive Cooling Systems” Book

David Ayers Leave a comment

When considering how well modern cars perform in many areas, it is easy to forget some of the issues motorists had on a regular basis more than four decades ago: plugs and points had to be frequently replaced, expected engine life was one-half to one-third what you see today, and overheating was a scourge in warm climates.

Today, if your vehicle isn’t modified for street or track, it’s easy to forget that modern cars even have coolant. But if it is, you know that contemporary muscle cars and hot rod engines are pushed to the limit with stroker kits and power adders that strain the capabilities of your cooling system.

In High-Performance Automotive Cooling Systems (SA462) from CarTech, Dr. John Kershaw explores the basics of a cooling system’s operation, including coolant and radiator options, how to manage radiator airflow and coolant speed through your engine (and why it’s important), cooling fans, and testing and installation of all components. Pick up this book to learn how to build a robust cooling system to complement your engine.
