K&N 03-04 Evo 8 ONLY Polished Typhoon Short Ram Intake

When you're looking to get more out of your 2003-2005 Mitsubishi Lancer, this K&N Typhoon Short Ram Intake system is a solid choice. What you get in the box is a polished, mandrel-bent aluminum intake tube, a high-flow air filter, and a custom heat shield designed to keep engine bay heat away from the incoming air. This setup is built to increase horsepower and torque by letting your engine breathe easier.

The heart of this system is K&N's washable and reusable High-Flow Air Filter. It uses oiled cotton filter media, which is known for letting a lot of air through while still trapping dirt effectively. You can go up to 100,000 miles between servicing the filter under normal highway driving, which is a pretty convenient interval. The polished aluminum tube not only looks sharp under the hood but is also constructed using a mandrel-bent process, meaning it maintains a consistent diameter throughout its bends for smooth airflow. The included heat shield helps isolate the filter from the engine's heat, ensuring that cooler, denser air enters the engine, which is key for performance gains.

Installation is typically straightforward and can often be completed in under 90 minutes, making it a manageable project for many DIYers. K&N backs this intake with their Million Mile Limited Warranty, giving you confidence in its long-term durability.
