If you're looking to give your Scion tC a little extra oomph, the HPS Performance Air Intake Kit is where it's at. This isn’t just another piece of aftermarket fluff; it’s a solid upgrade that really makes a difference. The factory intake can be pretty restrictive, but this kit swaps it out for a slick 3" mandrel-bent aluminum tube. Plus, it comes with a heavy-duty powder-coated heat shield that keeps the engine bay cooler, allowing your engine to breathe better.

One of the coolest parts about this kit is the reusable high-flow cotton air filter. It’s designed to let more air in, which is exactly what you want for better performance. We’re talking about a potential boost of up to 7.9 horsepower and 9.2 lb-ft of torque. You’ll definitely notice the difference in throttle response and acceleration—your tC will feel livelier right off the line.

Installation is a breeze, too. You can bolt this on with just a few hand tools, so you don’t need to be a mechanic to tackle it. And it’s not just about performance; the blue finish gives your engine bay a fresh look that stands out.
