If you're a proud owner of a 2001-2003 Mazda Protege or a 2002-2003 Mazda Protege5, the AEM 22-481R Performance Short Ram Air Intake System is your ticket to a noticeable boost in horsepower and torque. This system replaces the restrictive factory air filter and intake housing, allowing your engine to breathe freely and perform at its best.
The AEM 22-481R is designed, tuned, and dyno-tested specifically for your vehicle, ensuring a perfect fit and optimal performance. The oversized AEM Dryflow synthetic washable air filter provides exceptional airflow and filtration, meaning your engine gets the clean air it craves. Plus, the sound of your engine will transform into a more aggressive note during acceleration, letting you feel the horsepower upgrade with every push of the pedal.
Constructed from mandrel-bent aluminum, the intake tubing features a striking red powder-coated finish that not only looks good under the hood but also stands up to the rigors of daily driving. This intake system is engineered to work seamlessly with your factory emissions control devices, including the mass airflow sensor and inlet air temperature sensor, so you won't have to worry about any compatibility issues.
Installation is straightforward and can be completed with commonly available tools, making it a great DIY project for those who enjoy working on their cars. The AEM 22-481R is also street legal in all 50 states, thanks to its CARB EO number D-670-15, so you can upgrade your ride without any legal hassles.

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.

This increase in power will also help you conserve fuel and increase your fuel efficiency, saving you money at the gas station.
