Performance Cold Air Intake System for 2011–2016 Hyundai & KIA 1.6L/1.8L – Optimized Airflow Velocity & Consistent Power Gains

Ensure your Accent, Veloster, Elantra, or Rio's maximized airflow and engine performance boost with this precision-engineered cold air intake system. Engineered specifically for the 1.6L and 1.8L 4-Cylinder engines, this kit replaces the restrictive factory air box that often limits the potential of your vehicle during daily commuting or highway merging. By utilizing lightweight T-304 aluminum piping to optimize the way your engine breathes, this system provides the cooler, denser air charge needed for improved combustion efficiency and a more capable driving experience.

The factory intake components are designed for silence over speed, often creating bottlenecks that restrict the engine's ability to breathe under load. Cooler air carries more oxygen, which translates into a more intense explosion in the combustion chamber to create more horsepower and torque. This system utilizes a high-flow aluminum induction tube that effectively reduces air turbulence and heat retention, allowing your engine to act as a more efficient air pump and providing a performance increase of up to 10% throughout the entire RPM range.

Key Features & Performance Benefits

• Power Gain: Increases horsepower and torque by up to 10% for improved acceleration and responsiveness.

• Premium Construction: Features lightweight T-304 aluminum piping for maximum durability and efficient thermal management.

• Instant Response: Streamlines the air intake to provide a more direct connection between the pedal and the pavement.

• Engine Tone: Enhances the induction sound under heavy acceleration, giving your 4-cylinder engine a more aggressive note.

• Consistent Flow: Maintains steady air velocity for reliable performance across all driving conditions.

• High Filtration: Blocks harmful debris while allowing maximum airflow for the demands of high-revving modern engines.
