Black isolator install instructions?
Anyone ever post a DIY on install of the isolator?
I have never taken my intake manifold off and would love too see the instructions on how to do it... too see if its in MY skill level to do on my own. |

here's a link to a thread that gave a lot of information on it and some trouble shooting tips. Also post #16 has a link to a step by step guide link in it. After reading through it and printing it out for reference, I think it took me about an hour to do it beginning to end. Definitely get the swivel head ratcheting wrench that's shown. I can't imagine doing this without it. good luck!

I apologize -- what is a black ice-o-lator and what does it do? If it adds power, I need it.

PM KMPrenger, he has some good instructions that he would probably email you. They're step by step instructions.
EDIT: Just realized how old this thread is haha, well here's a link. http://www.apex-speed.com/vmax-black-ice-olator-en.html

"Description: This insulator is for the LLT V6 motor (Does NOT fit 2012+ LFX). The VMAX Black Ice-olator isolates the intake manifold from the direct heat transfer from the cylinder heads and also shields the intake from radiated heat from the engine block. With an infrared temperature gun, we saw a 30° F temperature reduction compared to a stock setup. Dyno graphs are available in the images. Other independent testing showed similar gains on a dyno: +10.5 RWHP / +21.5 RWT at 2500 +11 RWHP / +19.5 RWT at 3000 +9.5 RWHP / +15 RWT at 3500 +20.5 RWHP / +27.5 RWT at 4000 +13.5 RWHP / +16 RWHP at 4500 +13 RWHP / +13.5 RWT at 5000 +11 RWHP / +11 RWT at 5500 +11 RWHP / +9 RWT at 6000 +4 RWHP / +3.5 RWT at 6500 +1 RWHP / +2 RWT at at 6800"
