GrimmSpeed Stealthbox Cold Air Intake Kit (Red) for 2015-2021 Subaru STI

Description: Inspiration for the StealthBox Intake came from internal discussions about what we wanted from an intake system for the 2015+ STI. Of course performance is the highest priority, but at GrimmSpeed so much more than that goes into a product. We wanted an intake that purred quietly under normal driving circumstances, but would roar at wide open throttle. We wanted an intake that looked at home in the well-sported 2015+ STI engine bay instead of a shoebox stuffed into the fender area. From here, the SteathBox was born. We took the concept one step further and referenced the F-117 Nighthawk as inspiration for the stealthy look of the GrimmSpeed heat shield. It should come as no surprise that the performance it packs is equally unique.DESIGNMAF diameter and placement, total bend angle, filter location, and heat shield design were the primary variables during the design phase. To ensure accurate readings, unaffected by the intense heat of the engine bay, MAF sensor placement absolutely must be within the heat shield. To minimize restriction, it was important to keep the total bend angle in the intake tube as low as possible, but still raise the filter location away from the ground to protect it from the elements. Lastly, testing showed the importance of utilizing the factory ram air scoop to feed the otherwise stagnant air in front of the fender.MaterialsEach intake begins with a CNC bent and laser cut 6061 Aluminum tube. Contrary to popular belief, particularly from those producing composite intakes, we found that the increased thermal mass of using thicker aluminum tubing (1/8” wall thickness) kept the intake from being vulnerable to rapid temperature change. This is called the ‘thermal flywheel effect’ and will keep the rapidly fluctuating temperatures inside your engine bay from affecting intake temps as drastically. Custom MAF flanges are machined from the same 6061 alloy and are placed on the straight nearest the filter, where we observed the most consistent cross-sectional flow. Mounting brackets are laser cut from 3/16” thick aluminum plate and CNC bent for perfect and repeatable fitment. Finally, heat shields are laser cut, CNC bent and hand assembled before going to powdercoating for a durable wrinkle black finish.Performance and Tuning MANUFACTURER PART # 060078Pipe Color: RedFeatures: Designed in CAD - Perfect mating with the factory turbo and ram-air scoop Low bend angle aluminum tube - Minimize restriction and maximize performance Shielded MAF sensor placement - Protects MAF from heat, which increases accuracy of readings Made in the USA - Right here in Minnesota, in fact Condition: 100% Brand New, Never Used or InstalledAvailability: Item will be ship from their distributor and deliver within 6 business daysFitment: 2015-2021 Subaru STI only***Not for sale or street use in California *** Warranty:Please inspect your order upon receipt.
