Halltech Systems Black Killer Bee MF103 Cold Air Induction - S&B Gray Oiled High Flow TRAK Filter - No NOMEX Sleeve - Stock Throttle Body - No PCV Hole in Hose (2006 - 2013 Chevrolet Corvette C6 LS7 Z06 / 2008 - 2013 Chevrolet Corvette C6 LS3) - KBMF103
Upgrade your LS3 or LS7 C6 Corvette with a true plug-and-play performance intake using the Halltech Black Killer Bee MF103 Cold Air Induction. The KBMF103 retains the same 103 mm internal diameter at the MAF sensor as the stock system, providing 8,332 square mm of MAF cross-sectional area while allowing Halltech to maintain stock-like MAF translation without requiring additional tuning. This configuration combines the black Killer Bee MF103 with Halltech's S&B Gray Oiled High-Flow Track Filter, stock C6 throttle-body connection, no external NOMEX intake sleeve, and no PCV hole in the throttle-body hose.
The Killer Bee MF103 combines Halltech's MAF-forward architecture with its Beehive heat shield, which isolates the air filter and MAF sensor from hot engine-bay air. The S&B Gray Oiled High-Flow Track Filter gives this configuration Halltech's high-flow oiled filtration option. Connecting the intake to the stock C6 throttle body is Halltech's Flex-Lock 4.5-to-4 reducing hump hose. Its seven-layer NOMEX-reinforced silicone construction combines a compliant hump section with internal grip ridges to accommodate engine movement while maintaining positive engagement at the intake and throttle body. The hose measures 3 inches long, uses a 4.5-inch intake-side ID and 4-inch throttle-body-side ID, and includes two stainless steel clamps.

No Additional Tuning Required
The Halltech Killer Bee MF103 is designed as a plug-and-play C6 intake that does not require additional tuning. Its 103 mm internal diameter at the MAF sensor matches the stock unit, allowing Halltech to engineer the system to translate the MAF tables like stock. That makes the MF103 a strong option for C6 owners who want to upgrade the induction system without making tuning a requirement. Halltech notes that proper performance tuning can produce additional horsepower and torque, but tuning is not required simply to install and operate the MF103.
Important Installation Information
Halltech specifically recommends against cutting holes in the Corvette radiator shroud in an attempt to feed additional air to the filter. According to Halltech, the modification is unnecessary and can cause lean codes and surging. This particular KBMF103 configuration is supplied for the stock C6 throttle body with no PCV hole in the throttle-body hose and does not include the optional external NOMEX intake sleeve.
