Key Features

This high-performance intake system features a rotationally molded HDPE tube that helps increase airflow volume and reduce intake restrictions. The oversized, conical High-Flow Air Filter™ with oiled cotton media ensures maximum filtration efficiency and longevity, allowing up to 100,000 miles between filter cleanings under normal highway conditions.
