AEM's Performance Short Ram Air Intake System gives you more power and acceleration by replacing the restrictive factory air filter and air intake assembly. The intake tube has an attractive yet durable chrome-like finish.
The AEM 22-489P Performance Short Ram Air Intake System has been engineered to be an affordable and easy way to boost the horsepower and torque of your engine. The restrictive factory air filter and air intake housing are replaced with this AEM air intake system which was designed, tuned and dyno-tested to fit specific Mazda Miata Mazdaspeed models. Air enters the system through an oversized AEM Dryflow synthetic washable air filter for outstanding air flow, filtration and performance. The air filter is protected by a heat shield which is designed to protect the filter from hot engine air in order to preserve horsepower gains. The sound your engine makes when accelerating is also modified to a fuller, more aggressive resonance allowing you to hear and feel the horsepower upgrade. The intake tubing is constructed from mandrel-bent aluminum featuring a durable chrome-like finish. This air intake system was developed to accommodate the engine's factory emissions control devices including the mass airflow sensor and engine breather hoses. Included in this kit is a high-flow AEM charge pipe to boost turbo gains. The tapered cylinder shaped AEM Dryflow air filter is made from an oil-free, synthetic filter media that can be used for up to 100,000 miles before cleaning is needed (depending on driving conditions).
