Probably not as they haven’t done so yet. The aftermarket has some good systems available now.

Buy a Roto Fab, why would you wait for GM when Roto Fab has a kit ready to go and proven gains that are rear. Don't wait on GM, it will just be another disappointment.

Don't waste your money unless you just want to look good at the carshow. Wait for the Vararam it will make power worth buying... Unless your modded enough the big gulp will probably make you lose power and hesitate off the line from to much flow.

Here are a few pics of of the car on the dyno comparing all the boxes worth mentioning for the guys that are worried about voiding the warranty.

In order from worst power to the most!

1. Carbon Elite 552
2. GM Factory Box 554 (with Green filter)
3. Rotofab Hood Closed 556
4. Rotofab hood up 568
5. Vararam not out yet

Performed on 2018 stock A10 all boxes had 2 runs and the exactly the same cool down time.

If you cut the factory box's bottom out and allow it to pull more air it will out perform the rotorfab running a green filter the stock box is with in 2 hp.. you will see a tad higher IAts sitting but once moving after 50ft the recover. So there is some truth to about being sealed however this kill flow when sealed up.. there is just not enough air to grab on the LT4's.



Would of like to had the GM version that looks similar to the 5th gen made by C.A.I. see if it did better than the the Carbon version.

Get your blower ported by Kong. They even have a nice box to put it in.

There is more to the rotofab than just gains as well for some people. I out a Corsa on and deleted my secondary cats. I couldn't even tell my car had a supercharger. Added the rotofab and the whine is back!

Very doubtful. GM is more concerned about selling cars. Plus Rotofab has killed the idea for everyone else.

thanks everyone, and yes mainly worried about warranty

I know gains are minimal, but I would like a bit more supercharger whine.

Open the lid of the blower take out the noise dampener plate..
Open the stock filter on botom run a hi flow filter

The rotofab will produce slight more whine but here are 2 freebies. As far as warranty you can pick up a free stock box from a zl1 or ss from any speed shop I'm sure they have quite a few laying around from upgrades. This way you have a stock box when u go in for work.

The rotofab doesn't look like the Zl1 version in that comparison photo.
