Elevate your car's performance with the ALTA Cold Air Box, precision-crafted from laser-cut aluminum sheet metal and expertly CNC bent to perfection. This airbox is not only a performance enhancer but also a protector, thanks to its durable black texture powder coating, offering long-term protection with an OEM-inspired appearance.
Key Benefits of the ALTA Cold Air Box:
The high-flow foam filter included with the ALTA Cold Air Box is designed to reduce intake restriction and increase the surface area for clean air ingestion. Unlike cotton and gauze filters, foam filters offer multi-layer filtration, trapping dirt at various levels. This results in improved particulate restriction without compromising horsepower as the filter accumulates dirt.
The ALTA Cold Air Intake System for R53 6-speed manual is available in black or red texture powder coating, allowing you to customize the appearance to your preference.
