This 09-13 Chevrolet Suburban cold air intake is from Injen's Power-Flow line.
If you've never heard of Injen, all you need to know is that they are the last real pioneers in intake technology. Compare an Injen intake to any other Suburban intake and you can immediately see that it's not just thicker, but are also shaped different. Unlike the other big names in intakes, Injen does NOT just simply copy your stock intake tube. Injen really cares about performance, and they spend a lot of time to engineer the best possible intake for your Suburban.
Power-Flow intakes are specifically created for vehicles with larger engines like the Suburban. They use Injen's MR technology, whch results in a complex multi-diameter intake for optimal power. Also, like other cold airs, it still dips deeper and further forward in your engine bay than the stock, pulling denser air for your engines combustion chamber.
Chevrolet Suburban Cold Air Intake System Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install my new Cold Air Intake myself?
If you have a decent amount of technical knowledge and can follow instructions, you should be able to follow the instructions and install a cold air intake onto your Chevrolet Suburban yourself. K&N FIPK intakes by far offer the best instructions with multiple pictures, though AEM is close behind.
What kind of power can I expect to get on my Chevrolet Suburban from an AEM, Spyder, or K&N FIPK Cold Air Intake?
Power increases vary by application, but you could expect anywhere from a 3-15hp increase under optimal conditions.
Are Cold Air Intakes safe in the rain?
NO CAR should ever be operated during flooding. Unlike short ram intakes, cold air intakes draw air from a relatively low position. Your vehicle can technically ingest water from rain puddles, streams, floods, etc if your car is lowered or the water is deep enough, and damage your engine. To prevent this, you could install the appropriate sized AEM Bypass valve onto your Chevrolet Suburban's AEM or Spyder Cold Air Intake, however, we instead recommend switching to your vehicles stock intake system if you anticipate driving through flood conditions. K&N FIPK Intakes do not require bypass valves since their design is higher than AEM and Spyder, and are relatively safe from water ingestion.
