AEM Cold Air Intake
When beginning the path of modification, one of the first modifications one may consider is a quality cold air intake system. The factory intake system is highly restrictive and leaves much room for improvement, especially for a turbocharged vehicle. You want your turbo to be able to breathe with little to no obstructions.
The AEM Cold Air Intake features a large intake filter that sends air through a smooth aluminum intake tube straight to the turbocharger with no turbulence. This allows the turbocharger to inhale a large volume of cool air to improve the throttle response while reducing the turbo lag. With a proper tune, you will get a nice bump in horsepower and torque.
