Description
The Mishimoto Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S Performance Air Intake, part number MMAI-BRZ-13BRD, is a red-hose cold air intake engineered specifically around the FA20 and 4U-GSE platforms shared by the ZC6/ZN6 chassis. Unlike intake swaps that force you to pull the front bumper, this kit was designed by Mishimoto’s engineering team to bolt on without any bumper removal, installing in under 30 minutes while adding real, measured power.
This air intake system pairs a smooth aluminum intake pipe with a silicone induction hose to eliminate airflow restrictions found in the factory setup, while a CNC-machined mass airflow (MAF) housing and air straightener keep airflow laminar across the sensor for accurate readings and safe A/F ratios throughout the powerband. At the heart of the kit is a fully serviceable Mishimoto oiled air filter (MMAF-3006) offering a 16-percent increase in filter surface area versus the stock filter, giving this cold air intake filter greater flow capacity and superior filtration. A black powder-coated airbox with protective edging shields the filter from underhood heat soak, and the whole intake was purpose-built to work alongside the Mishimoto BRZ/GT86 Oil Cooler Kit. Drivers looking for more induction noise will notice a distinctly throaty intake tone, especially under full throttle, making this as much an audible upgrade as a performance one.
