Why Upgrade Your Intake System?

While there are lots of choices on where to spend your performance budget, short ram intake systems and cold air intake systems are one of the few engine upgrades that remain quick, affordable and easy to install. Aftermarket intake systems are made to increase air volume over the more restrictive stock air-intake system. As a bonus, they even sound great as you roll into the throttle.

Using a larger better flowing filter accompanied with a smoother flowing intake tube, more air is able to get to your engine, thus creating greater efficiency and performance. By opting for one of the cold air intake systems, your engine will pick up more power again. Beyond the power gains that come with performance intake systems and cold air intake systems, gas prices have been heading towards $4.00 a gallon, and gas mileage gains have been a big incentive to make this bolt-on upgrade a must. Typical installation time is 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on vehicle application. Installing a cold air intake system might be a little longer depending on the application.

For those not yet ready for the full intake system kit, try using a Stock Replacement air filter or the newest Dryflow Air Filters available from great brands such as AEM and K&N. Designed to slide or mount into your factory airbox to replace your restrictive stock filter, it is hands-down the easiest easy way to grab a little power and efficiency. If that isn’t enough to get you started on the path to performance, then the fact that they have a Lifetime Warranty should certainly be an advantage to take into consideration.

Whether you choose a complete intake system, cold air intake system or a drop in replacement filter, your engine will breathe easier and the filter media itself will do a superior job of cleaning the air that your engine ingests over the stock paper elements that your vehicle came equipped with from the factory. These filters like the Airaid SynthaFlow are designed much differently than your stock intake. We are here to help you choose between AEM or K&N or any of the great brands we offer.
