About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to get more out of your 2010-2013 Mazda 3's 2.3L engine, this K&N Typhoon Short Ram intake is designed to help. It replaces your restrictive factory airbox and tubing with a smooth, mandrel-bent aluminum tube that helps the engine breathe easier. This improved airflow is what allows for a guaranteed increase in horsepower and torque, giving your car a more responsive feel.

The system includes K&N's washable and reusable High-Flow Air Filter, which uses oiled cotton filter media to capture dirt while letting air pass through freely. The oversized, conical shape of the filter maximizes surface area for better airflow and extends the time between cleanings, potentially up to 100,000 miles under normal highway driving. A custom heat shield is also included to help block hot air from the engine bay from entering the intake stream, ensuring cooler, denser air reaches the engine for optimal performance. K&N backs this intake with their Million Mile Limited Warranty.

Installation is typically straightforward and can often be completed in under 90 minutes, making it a popular upgrade for many Mazda 3 owners. Remember to check the product specifications for CARB status if you are in California, as some intakes are not legal for sale or use on pollution-controlled vehicles there.
