AEM Cold Air Intake System 21-8122DC for Ford Mustang GT 2011-2014, Gunmetal Gray
$349.99
Free Shipping

If you're looking to give your Ford Mustang GT a serious boost, the AEM 21-8122DC Performance Cold Air Intake System is worth checking out. This isn’t just any intake; it’s designed specifically for select Mustang models, and trust me, it shows. By swapping out that factory air filter and restrictive housing, you’re not just freeing up airflow—you’re unlocking some real horsepower and torque gains. We're talking about an estimated increase of about 8 HP at 5000 RPM, which is pretty solid for a simple upgrade.

At the heart of this system is the oversized AEM Dryflow synthetic washable air filter. It's oil-free, so you won’t have to mess with any filter oil, and it can go up to 100,000 miles before it needs a cleaning—depending on your driving style, of course. Plus, it’s protected by a well-designed air box that helps keep the intake air temperature down, which is key for performance. The mandrel-bent aluminum intake tubing looks sharp with its gunmetal gray powder coat finish, and it’s built to last.

Installation is a breeze, even if you're not a pro mechanic. You can tackle it with just some common tools, which is a big plus if you like to get your hands dirty. And for peace of mind, AEM backs this system with a Lifetime Limited Warranty. Just a heads up, though—some versions of this intake aren’t legal for sale or use in California, so make sure to check the legal status for your specific vehicle.

What Is an AEM Cold Air Intake System?

An AEM cold air intake system is specifically designed to increase the volume of cold air flowing into your engine as you drive. The thinking behind this is that cold air is much denser than warm air. Therefore, if there is more cold air in your engine, there is more air in general, which also means that there is more oxygen. A higher amount of oxygen present in a car engine increases the potency of combustion, which can increase the power and efficiency of your engine.

What Are the Benefits of an AEM Intake System?

An AEM intake kit maximizes the amount of power you can get from your engine. This increase in power will also help you conserve fuel and increase your fuel efficiency, saving you money at the gas station. In a sense, an AEM intake system helps your car and engine “breathe” more efficiently, allowing it to reach its full potential.

Why Should I Choose an AEM Intake Kit?

AEM is regarded as one of the best aftermarket intake systems on the market, combining quality materials, cutting-edge technology and reliable design to help drivers around the globe improve the power of their engine. All AEM cold air intake systems are engineered to increase your car’s torque and horsepower, and any AEM intake kit comes with a lifetime limited warranty.
