Description
The Mishimoto Performance Cold-Air Intake, part number MMAI-BRZ-13WBK, is purpose-built for the 2013-2020 Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S platform and finished in a durable powder-coated wrinkle black. Mishimoto’s engineering team spent months developing this cold air intake system to deliver a bolt-on gain of 10 whp / 8 wtq while keeping air/fuel ratios safe across the entire powerband. At its core sits a mandrel-bent aluminum intake pipe paired with a CNC-machined mass airflow housing and air straightener, engineered to keep intake filter airflow laminar for accurate MAF readings.
As a true cold air intake, this air intake system relocates the filter outside the hot engine bay to help stave off heat soak, and it pairs that layout with a fully serviceable Mishimoto oiled air filter offering a 16-percent increase in filter surface area over the stock piece for greater airflow and filtration. A powder-coated air diverter mounts behind the front bumper to route cool, dense air to the radiator, AC condenser, and the cold air intake filter itself. Beyond the performance and cool air intake gains, drivers also pick up a noticeably throatier intake tone under throttle, and the kit is backed by the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty.
