Product Description

The aFe Power 46-60029 BladeRunner Turbo Inlet Manifold is a high-performance upgrade specifically engineered for 2004.5-2005 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks equipped with the 6.6L Duramax diesel engine. This turbo inlet manifold replaces the restrictive factory turbo inlet elbow with a design that uses advanced multi-direction vane technology to create smoother, more efficient airflow into the turbocharger. By reducing airflow restriction and increasing overall flow, this manifold helps improve turbo response and engine efficiency.

Built from durable A356-T6 aluminum with a corrosion-resistant powder coat finish, the BladeRunner inlet manifold is designed to withstand the thermal demands of diesel operation while delivering measurable performance gains. The improved airflow path can enhance horsepower, torque potential, and turbo spool-up times, while also helping lower exhaust gas temperatures. Installation is a straightforward bolt-on process using existing turbo inlet locations and included hardware, making this an ideal upgrade for Duramax owners seeking enhanced throttle response and stronger overall performance.
