GruppeM adopted a high-capacity design that elegantly makes full use of the engine bay drawing in the greatest amount of ambient air possible. Their proprietary double carbon fiber heat shields prevent heated air from entering the intake stream, resulting in lowered intake air temperatures (IAT) efficiently and effectively preventing engine compartment heat from entering the air-stream delivering increased power and a dramatic increase in power at the higher RPM ranges, providing a sharp increase in response and that powerful intake sound all drivers enjoy.
