- Pre-oiled Pro 5R filter media with five layers of progressively finer cotton gauze for exceptional airflow and filtration
- One-piece sealed housing made from heat-resistant cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) to reduce intake air temperatures
- Patent-pending filter-to-housing interface that minimizes parts and simplifies installation
- Large clear sight window for quick and easy filter inspection without disassembly
- Durable, computer-designed intake tube dyno-tuned for optimal power gains and perfect fit
- Stainless steel clamps and premium silicone coupler for secure, long-lasting installation
- Auxiliary air inlet compatible with headlight air inlet on 2015+ models, allowing connection to the optional Dynamic Air Scoop (sold separately) or closure with provided plug
Construction & Design:
The Momentum GT intake system is crafted from high-quality, heat-resistant cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), ensuring durability and resistance to heat soak under demanding conditions. The one-piece sealed housing design not only protects the filter but also helps maintain lower intake air temperatures, which is critical for consistent engine performance.
The innovative filter-to-housing interface reduces the number of components required, streamlining installation and enhancing reliability. The oversized Pro 5R air filter features an inverted top design that increases surface area, extending service intervals and improving airflow efficiency. The intake tube is precision-engineered and dyno-tested to optimize airflow dynamics, contributing to improved throttle response and power delivery.
Performance & Sound
By delivering a larger volume of cooler, denser air to the engine, the Momentum GT Cold Air Intake System enhances combustion efficiency, resulting in improved horsepower and torque across the powerband. The system’s design reduces intake air temperatures, which helps maintain consistent performance even during spirited driving or track use.
Additionally, the intake produces a more aggressive induction sound, providing an engaging auditory experience without excessive drone. This balance of performance and sound makes it an excellent upgrade for enthusiasts who want both power and refinement.
Installation & Fitment:
The Momentum GT Cold Air Intake System is designed for a straightforward, bolt-on installation with minimal tools required. Its innovative filter-to-housing interface and reduced hardware count allow for quick assembly, typically completed within an hour. No permanent modifications or cutting are necessary, preserving factory components and warranty considerations.
For 2015 and newer models, the auxiliary air inlet can be connected to the headlight air inlet using the optional Dynamic Air Scoop (part numbers 50-70009S or 54-72203-SR) to further enhance airflow. If not used, the inlet is sealed with the included plug to maintain system integrity.
