If you’re looking to give your C8 Corvette Z06 a serious edge in both performance and aesthetics, the Corsa Performance Carbon Fiber Dual Path Air Intake offers one of the best bolt-on upgrades available. Designed specifically for the Z06’s LT6 engine platform, this high-flow intake system not only adds aggressive styling, it also delivers real-world power gains.

The Corsa C8 Z06 intake system is completely reversible and requires no cutting or permanent modifications, making it a true plug-and-play upgrade with hand tools.

Crafted with precision, the intake system is built from multi-layer carbon fiber, paired with black powdercoated aluminum heat shielding to keep intake temps in check. The system also features an integrated wire management solution, keeping the installation clean and OEM-like. Thanks to its dual-path design, airflow is optimized and evenly distributed across the LT6’s flat-plane V8, resulting in improved throttle response and torque throughout the powerband — especially noticeable starting around 3,600 RPM.

The dry air filter technology minimizes maintenance while still offering long service intervals depending on driving conditions.

One of the standout benefits of this intake is its use of DryTech filtration — a dry air filter technology that minimizes maintenance while still offering long service intervals, up to 50,000 miles depending on driving conditions. That means fewer filter cleanings, less downtime, and more driving. Additionally, the Corsa system is completely reversible and requires no cutting or permanent modifications, making it a true plug-and-play upgrade.

Visually, the carbon fiber weave provides a motorsports-inspired look that dramatically transforms the C8 engine bay. While the stock black trunk panel can be retained for a stealthy appearance, Corsa also offers an optional carbon fiber trunk panel (coupe only) to further enhance the engine compartment’s visual appeal — especially when displayed at car shows or meets.

Best of all, the intake is designed, engineered, tested, and assembled in the USA, at Corsa’s facility in Berea, Ohio. It comes with a limited lifetime warranty for the original purchaser, and a 1-year warranty on the air filters, reflecting the company’s confidence in both durability and quality.

While there are gains to be had in the upper end of the LT6’s rev range, the biggest gains were between 3,600 and 5,600 rpm, with a maximum gain of 33 horsepower at 4,950 rpm and 35 pound-feet of torque at 4,875 rpm.

With tuning solutions for the LT6 platform still pending, this intake offers one of the few safe, proven, and warranty-backed ways to unlock more performance from your Z06 — all while keeping the factory ECU intact. For owners looking to maximize the capability of their supercar, this carbon fiber upgrade is a no-brainer.
