Cold-Air Induction 92-96 LT1/LT4 Corvette

The Cold-Air Induction 92-96 LT1/LT4 Corvette by SLP PERFORMANCE is a precision intake system engineered for C4 Corvette enthusiasts seeking measurable horsepower gains and throttle response improvements. This bolt-on upgrade addresses the thermal limitation inherent to stock intake manifolds, which draw warm underhood air that reduces oxygen density and combustion efficiency.

Built for the legendary LT1 and LT4 engines that powered the final generation of second-generation Corvettes, the cold-air induction design pulls cooler ambient air from outside the engine bay rather than recycled heat, effectively lowering intake air temperature by 15–25 degrees Fahrenheit under load. Cooler, denser air molecules contain more oxygen per volume, which allows the fuel injection system to maintain optimal air-fuel ratios and unlock latent output from the LT1's 5.7-liter displacement and LT4's enhanced combustion chamber geometry.

SLP engineers integrated smooth-bore tubing and optimized velocity paths to minimize turbulence while maintaining laminar flow characteristics—critical for preventing low-end torque loss that plagues poorly designed systems. The protective intake filter housing and sealed construction prevent dust ingestion while maintaining unrestricted breathing dynamics. This intake system is purpose-built for 1992–1996 Corvette models equipped with the LT1 (base engine) and LT4 engines.
