If you’re looking to give your Subaru a little extra oomph, the HPS Performance Air Intake Kit is a solid choice. This isn’t just about looks—though the sleek black finish definitely adds some flair. It’s all about performance, too. With a 2.75" mandrel-bent aluminum tube, this kit replaces your stock air hose, making it way less restrictive. You can expect a nice bump in horsepower—about 8.5 more than stock—and a torque increase of 8.3 ft/lbs. That’s a noticeable difference when you hit the gas.

Installation is a breeze, too. You won’t need to be a mechanic to get this thing on; just grab some basic hand tools and you’re good to go. No tuning or crazy modifications required. Just bolt it on, and you’re set. Plus, the reusable high-flow air filter is a game changer. It’s easy to clean with the HPS Air Filter Recharge Kit, and it catches particles as small as 5 microns, so you know your engine is breathing clean air.

The heavy-duty powder-coated steel heat shield is another nice touch. It keeps the intake air cooler by blocking out engine heat, which is crucial for optimal performance. You’ll notice improved throttle response and a deeper, more aggressive induction sound that really makes your ride stand out.

• Gain of 8.5 horsepower and 8.3 ft/lbs of torque—dyno-proven, no fluff.
