Halltech Systems Black Killer Bee MF103 Cold Air Induction - S&B Red Oiled 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. Unlike larger MAF configurations that require recalibration, the KBMF103 is engineered around the same 103 mm internal diameter at the MAF sensor as the stock system, allowing Halltech to increase induction performance without requiring additional tuning. This configuration pairs the black Killer Bee MF103 with an S&B Red Oiled 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 engine-bay heat. Halltech engineers the MF103 to maintain stock-like MAF translation and reports a 103 to 104 mm MAF cross-section. 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. Halltech retains the stock 103 mm internal diameter at the MAF sensor and engineers the MF103 to translate the MAF tables like the factory system. That makes the MF103 a strong choice for owners who want an upgraded 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.

FAQs
Does the Halltech Killer Bee MF103 KBMF103 require tuning?
No. Halltech designed the MF103 as a plug-and-play system that requires no additional tuning. Its 103 mm internal diameter at the MAF sensor matches the stock unit, allowing the intake to maintain stock-like MAF translation. Halltech does note that proper performance tuning can produce additional horsepower and torque, but tuning is not required for installation and operation of the MF103.
What makes this KBMF103 configuration different from the other available versions?
This specific KBMF103 combines the black Killer Bee MF103 with an S&B Red Oiled Filter and Halltech's stock C6 throttle-body connection. It does not include the optional external NOMEX intake sleeve, and the throttle-body hose is supplied without a PCV hole. The intake itself still includes Halltech's Beehive heat shield and MAF-forward architecture.
