Short Ram Air Intake for Hyundai Veloster (2011-2017) with 1.6L Engine Red

Maximize the Breathability of Your Gamma G4FD: Short Ram Intake for Hyundai Veloster 1.6L

Who It’s For: Engineered for 2011–2017 Hyundai Veloster owners running the Gamma G4FD powerplant who are tired of the stock sluggishness and delayed throttle response.

The Symptom: The factory intake on the 1.6L Gamma engine is designed for silence and cost-efficiency, not performance. It utilizes a restrictive, multi-chambered resonator box and accordion-style plastic tubing that creates massive air turbulence, effectively choking the engine’s ability to breathe during rapid acceleration. This results in a "dead spot" in the powerband when you’re trying to merge onto the highway or navigate through traffic in your Veloster.

The Engineering Fix: This system replaces that restrictive, heat-soak prone plastic with a mandrel-bent aluminum tube. By straightening the airflow path and removing the factory baffles, we significantly reduce intake restriction. The high-flow cotton filter increases the surface area for air induction, allowing for higher oxygen density in the combustion chamber. This translates to a crisper throttle snap, more usable mid-range torque, and a purposeful induction roar that the stock airbox completely muffles.

Why Mechanics Choose This Kit

• Optimized Velocity: The short-path design increases air velocity directly into the manifold, providing a noticeable bump in horsepower and torque by up to 10% on the G4FD platform.
• Thermal Management: Lightweight aluminum piping is selected for its superior durability and its ability to shed heat faster than stock composite materials, keeping intake temperatures lower.
• Maintenance Longevity: The included high-flow red performance filter is fully washable and reusable, easy to clean and reuse.
