STILLEN is excited to announce the launch of the 2500/3500 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra TruPower by STILLEN Cold Air Intake Scoop TP403502. This product is something we’re very, very proud of.
When Chevy introduced their new Silverado 1500 intake design, they saw that they could bring air from the front of the vehicle. The air will go through the front grille, work its way up from the face of the radiator, go through a latticework type panel and then into the intake tract.
It’s a very good design that brings the freshest possible air from the front of the vehicle. However, what we notice is that the air coming up the face of the radiator is also extracting heat from the radiator. Remember, your radiator is running around 200 degrees.
Additionally, Chevy and GMC use a latticework type of material over the top of the intake scoop design. This latticework material increases turbulence, and every time you work the air, you’re introducing heat into the system.
With that being said, we looked at the design, and we saw areas of opportunity to improve the performance, reduce the intake air temperature, and increase the air volume.
What we’ve done is we’ve taken that initial concept and we’ve simply opened up the intake a little bit further to allow direct air flow. We’ve removed that lattice work material so that air comes in through the front of the grille, into the front of the scoop, and straight into your engine.
On the Chevy Silverado 1500 and the GMC Sierra 1500, one of the things that we noted was that we could also lower the bottom of that scoop to get a larger volume of air coming in through the face of the vehicle. Unfortunately, on the 2500 and 3500, we’re not able to reduce that bottom surface because there is a transmission cooler that runs along that edge.
However, we noticed that on the 2500 and 3500, their only using about half of the opening of the air scoop. The other side of the panel is completely blocked off to airflow and thus increases the restriction. What we’ve done is we’ve eliminated that restriction. We’ve completely opened up that area.
So now you have 100% airflow going into your intake scoop.
