Show original supplier description
This short ram intake is designed vehicle-specific to ensure a perfect fit on your 2004-2005 Subaru Forester. Its smooth, mandrel-bent aluminum construction maximizes airflow from the layered gauze filter directly to the engine, eliminating blockages and restrictions. Constructed from durable aluminum and reinforced with tig-welds, this intake system is built to last. The gauze-based filter effectively stops all debris, ensuring clean air reaches your engine. The intake is available in red, blue, and polished stainless finishes, with this particular model featuring a red anodized finish. Assembled in the USA, it also boasts a limited lifetime warranty from AEM. The system is CARB certified and legal for use in all 50 states, making it a compliant upgrade. While not explicitly stated as required, the product description notes that maximizing the potential of a cold air intake can be achieved with a tune, which helps the engine run more efficiently and ensures long-term reliability.
