CT5 BW CAI - Finally

[Mcard23]

JLT Cold Air Intake for the 2022-2024 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing 6.2L

This intake comes with a massive 5" tube (tune required) and a tube that works on cars with the stock tune. The kit comes with 3 different throttle body couplers and works with a 103mm TB.

Looks like those of us looking for a 5BW CAI have had our prayers answered lol. Spring 2024!

My only question is, will it help anything?

It’s should give more SC noise and more noise always means more POWER.

As I had mentioned previously, Cordes Performance Racing has one coming to the market soon as well. It will require a tune.

We just installed the s&b on our escalade v. I'm glad we did and def. some noise added and it's a quality piece, but nowhere near the night and day as my trx. Probably a good thing for my wife in the long run but I wouldn't have turned down more whistle

My only question is, will it help anything?

Probably negligible without a tune

The title of this thread is the definition of clickbait!

Based on what I have read the factory intake can support 850whp. typically an intake is the first mod people choose but I don’t think that will be the case here with these cars. IMO I’d spend the money on a Kong port first.

Thats a lot of money for a slight increase in whine.

This intake is immediately a 'no' for me. It's got a cutout on the top of the lid. The CT5 hood doesn't seal against the top of the lid the way the Camaro does, for example. Means you are sucking hot air from engine bay right into the intake.

It's also ugly AF....

I think it has a lexan cover but I may be wrong, if not I agree

I ordered one so will report back my findings once received.

Just revisiting this because I have in my possession a aftermarket intake. My advice would be to wait until JLT finishes.

I've been bugging S&B since last year and they are just currently testing the CAI to ensure best performance with no CEL's. I'll wait for S&B version cause of the extensive testing, plus i have one in my 2021 Denali 6.2L and it sounds insane.. That Cordes one look cheesy and for $850 I'm good.

Jebus... $850 for some holes in an airbox? I think I'll stick with my eBay whistle tips for some whine. If you know, you know.

God I feel old...

but hey.. Bubb Rubb & Lil Sis approved. Absolute classic.

An intake that would make a sound like this possible would be worth a few hundred in my opinion even if no power gain.
