United StatesCold air
Great workmanship, little loud, and i get a check engine once in a while, but.....i am very happy with it
United StatesWow
I upgraded from the ZZP silicone tube and high flow filter and I must say it makes the turbo sound like a jet engine. I haven’t thrown a code yet but I also haven’t been mashing the gas around time. Overall I’m happy, can’t say if the butt dyno feels a power increase Because I’ve been so stoked about the noise. Lol
United StatesSounds great, but be careful
Was excited to receive this in the mail, shipping was really fast, but be wary. If you have a newer ATS, you'll end up having to break a tamper proof connector, as where the instructions show that is a pull off. This can and will very well void a warranty in a heartbeat. My fix was wrapping it in electrical tape to ensure no leaks, and 3 weeks into having it set up this way, i haven't had any leaks. I check up on it every few days just to see how it holds up and so far so good. HOWEVER. When it comes to fitting the box frame itself for the intake, AGAIN: BE CAREFUL ON WHAT MODEL YOU HAVE!!! The frame did NOT fit my 2017 ATS 2.0T and the frame is only held it by 2 of the 3 grommets because the frame is too long to reach the grommet closest to the front bumper in the engine bay. Needless to say, the install isn't flush and looks kind if jimmy-rigged. So yet again, be careful, as if you have a newer model ATS, get ready for a rough install. Now, a week after the install, i did have a check engine light code P2096. Which basically means there's too much air entering the engine and the engine itself is running lean. Dropped my MPG by a bit too much for me to be comfortable with but somehow, over time, my GM car fixed itself and everything is back to normal after just a few days of the check engine light. No problems since. Now on to the performance of the product. By god does this intake sound heavenly. The audio clips on this page don't do its own justice. On lower rmp acceleration, she loves to flutter almost like a BOV. Amazing product for turning heads. What you wont find in any video or audio clip anywhere is how LOUD the turbo gets! My 2017 ATS 2.0T sounds like a spaceship when i floor it, hear nothing but a subtle engine roar and beautiful turbo air; followed by the release. The sound echoes off of just about anything within your vicinity so if you dont mind possibly jimmy-rigging your new ATS, then by all means slap this intake in and get ready for your buddies to start naming your car after astronauts and space ships. Overall, i give this product a 3 star, primarily because i chose ZZP due to how easy of an install it looked to be, and it ended up being a disappointing installation. But the SOUND my car makes now is just too good for me to give this intake a lower review. Again, i highly recommend doing extensive research on if this intake will PROPERLY fit your car or not. That is something i lacked on and depended on ZZP themselves to answer for me but they told me it would fit and it obviously gave me some issues. *smirks in turbo anyways*
Hi Kyle, What sub-model ATS do you have? We've sold hundreds of these intakes and have never run into fitment issues. Did you reach out to customer service after the fact to see if something needed to be changed or swapped out? Either way we're glad you loved the sound and performance. Let us know if there's anything we can do to help.
United StatesAwesome!
The sound of the bypass valve is just amazing! Got the CEL as soon as I installed it but it went away the next day and hasn’t come back since. I’ve had it for a couple weeks now.
United StatesCold air intake
Great product would recommend ZZPerformance to everyone with these types of cars.
