Hey guys, just installed my Injen CAI this past week on my 03 TL Type-S and I must say... coming from the "resonator removed / k&n air filter" sound I couldn't imagine it being much louder than that.... but WOW. The new Injen SCREAMS at full throttle. Not a big fan of the "hissing" sound it makes but man, when my front tires break loose and give a loud chirp EVERY time it hits 2nd gear at wot makes it ALL worth while. Def picked up a few ponies by the "seat of the pants meter" haha. Not sure how much if any worth mentioning but it DEF picked up some.

Pretty easy install once I figured out the "lines" that needed connected. Intake looks great under the hood.

Just wanted to share my experience with it... def a worthwhile upgrade for the TL.

 

lol very nice...and If you thought this thing will save you gas...think again. WOT is now your new best friend, so prepare to guzzle down like a v8.

 

yeah I won't be flooring it much it all, I got the SS for that. It's just nice to know that I have it for the times when I do feel like hitting it, Ive been getting like 24 mpg with it so thats cool.

 

buddy you need to update your signature....it should say

2003 TL Type-S (Injen CAI)
2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer SS-(LOTS of mods)

:P

 

now you just need a fujita filter

 

^ hey.. thats my idea...

lol.. i just got lazy to clean my Injen filter... bleh

 

i wouldnt want to be the next owned of ur TL. It chirps every time he puts, that must be u beat the ever living shit out of that thing, lol. Im not one to judge i used to ride my cobra hard, but i baby my TL, especially cause of the things Ive heard about the tranny's on them. But good luck with it

 

what engine is in the trailblazer?

 

Trailblazer has LS2 V8 stock output is 395hp/400tq. Same motor in the vettes/gto's. Got alot of work done to it. Freaking fast ass suv thats for sure..lol.

 

wow, those things do not look like they have power. Sweet ride bro.. Any pix of the engine? I personally love the Ram SRT10.. Viper Engine FTW!

 

does it handle well or is it a boat?

 

Small sized SUV, sorta the size of my pilot.. Im guessing it handles just fine.. Unlike the escalades..

 

The trailblazer ss i drove was fast as shit but handle like shit too LOL(its a truck). I find that the cherokee srt8 handled better but thats a given really. Just as fast as the cherokee tho. Sweet ride.

 

Yeah, the Jeep SRT8's are beautiful. I would have gotten one, but just couldn't justify spending the extra 10+ grand, and I wanted 2wd. My SS handles pretty well.. I replaced the rear swaybar with a better one and I run 275/45/20 Tires and have it lowered a little. But yes, it is a 4800lb suv so handeling is limited, but I love it. Im not really into hauling ass around corners, as I am more of a 1/4 mile dragstrip kind of guy...lol... here is a video from my last time to the track in it back in November...

12.79 @103 with a 1.75 60'.. sorry for bad camera work. My brother was filming it.

 

i used to chirp 2nd all day but when my tranny got replaced from acura no more chirp...
