Performance Air Intake for Isuzu Trooper (1994-2003) 3.2L 3.5L

Eliminate Intake Restriction and Improve Throttle Response for Isuzu 6VD1 & 6VE1 V6 Engines

Who It’s For: Designed specifically for Isuzu owners running the 3.2L or 3.5L V6 engines, commonly found in the Trooper, Rodeo, and Axiom. This is for the enthusiast who wants to hear their engine breathe and feel a more immediate response when merging or climbing grades.

The Problem: The factory air box on the 6VD1 and 6VE1 engines was engineered primarily for sound suppression and cost, not airflow. The stock corrugated rubber intake hoses create significant internal turbulence, while the restrictive plastic box traps heat and limits the volume of air available during high-demand acceleration.

The Solution: This performance intake kit replaces the entire restrictive assembly with a mandrel-bent, polished T-304 aluminum induction pipe. By smoothing the path to the throttle body and utilizing a high-flow conical filter, we allow the engine to pull in a higher volume of air with less effort, correcting the sluggish factory feel and providing a deep, sporty induction note under load.

Why This is the Ultimate Upgrade

• Performance Gains: Experience a documented increase of 7-10% in horsepower and 6-8% in torque by improving volumetric efficiency.
• T-304 Aluminum Construction: Unlike plastic intakes that can heat-soak or crack over time, our polished aluminum piping dissipates heat faster and provides a lifetime of durability.
• Washable High-Flow Filter: Stop buying disposable paper filters. The included cotton-media cone filter is fully washable and reusable, saving long-term maintenance costs.
• Simple Bolt-On Install: Engineered to fit with basic hand tools in under an hour. No cutting or welding is required to bypass the stock air box.
