Performance Cold Air Intake System for 2002–2005 Trailblazer, Envoy, & Bravada – 4.2L L6
Ensure your Trailblazer, Envoy, or Bravada's maximized airflow and engine performance boost with this precision-engineered cold air intake system. Engineered specifically for the 4.2L inline-six engine, this kit replaces the restrictive factory air box that often limits the potential of your SUV during highway merging or heavy hauling. Whether you are maintaining factory settings or looking to maximize your vehicle's potential, this upgrade provides the high-velocity induction path needed for peak efficiency and a more capable driving experience.
The factory intake components are designed for silence over speed, often creating bottlenecks that restrict the engine's ability to breathe. By drawing in a larger volume of cooler, oxygen-rich air, this system eliminates those vulnerabilities, providing a smooth air path that remains stable under heavy load. This ensures that response remains sharp across the entire RPM range, resulting in more immediate acceleration and a boost in horsepower and torque by up to 10%.
