Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1045630 Turbo Intake Horn is a performance upgrade designed to replace the factory plastic turbo inlet pipe on 2017–2022 Chevy and GMC Duramax 6.6L L5P trucks. The factory inlet is restrictive and limits airflow to the turbocharger. The BD Diesel intake horn is constructed from 3½" 409 stainless steel tubing with a durable black powder coat finish for improved airflow, durability, and long-lasting performance.
This robust intake horn is a direct-fit, drop-in component that enhances throttle response and supports upgraded turbochargers by optimizing airflow into the compressor. Its construction and design help reduce turbo lag and improve spool-up for stronger performance across the RPM range.
