Grimmspeed has crafted a top - notch cold air intake system for Subaru WRX and STI owners. Through extensive testing and research, they've met key design criteria. The MAF sensor is shielded from engine bay heat for accurate readings. The filter is placed safely away from the ground to avoid water - related issues. Positioned like the OEM airbox, the MAF sensor relative to the filter and air straightener ensures consistent airflow readings. The intake tube is short with minimal bends to reduce airflow restriction. The heatshield seals off the induction area from the hot engine bay, keeping intake air cool. This intake is a perfect hybrid of traditional Cold Air Intakes and Short Ram Intakes, offering all the benefits without compromises. Part #: 060051. Quick Specs: It features a Hybrid Cold Air/Short Ram Design, combining the best of both worlds. The air straightener mimics the factory setup for accurate MAF readings. The MAF sensor is inside the heat shield, away from engine heat. There's a custom reusable high - flow air filter with an integrated velocity stack for smooth incoming air. It's proudly Made in the USA, specifically in Minnesota. Installation takes just 30 minutes, with help from our written and video guides. It includes 1x Intake Tube, 1x High - flow Oiled Filter, 1x Hump Hose Connector, 1x Heat Shield Assembly, 3x Hose Clamps, 2x MAF Flange Screws, 3x Precut Rubber Sealing Strip, and 1x MAF Wire Grommet.
