I can tell the difference in throttle response and HP after bolting on this puppy. The Hoe is a little quicker 0-60. One member posted that he took off his Airaid Jr because it was loud and drones out his Corsa. I was worried about that happening but IMHO, I didnt really notice much of a sound difference coming from the intake. I actualy think my Corsa Touring sounds better now.

BLACKBEAR PERFORMANCE AutoCal Tune:

I word:

Awesome.

0-60 Before:

0-60 After BBP 91+ Octane Tune:

I stopwatched it at a 0.3 sec improvement. The main improvement is in how this truck drives now. It's responsive, always feels like it's in the proper gear, and feels all around more athletic. My wife said it felt like the Tahoe lost weight, haha. Big ups to BBP. :happy160:

THIS VID IS MY FAVORITE:
