Review & Installation Video

Hey Justin from AmericanMuscle.com here, taking a closer look at these very budget friendly intakes from SR Performance, available in black or polished fitting all 96-04 Mustang GTs. This kit completely replaces the power robbing factory airbox in your GT

Improves Horsepower. This SR Performance Cold Air Intake kit completely replaces the restrictive factory air box and paper filter element in your 1996-2004 4.6 GT Mustang with a high flow filter assembly for a noticeable increase in horsepower and throttle response all while still filtering out harmful power robbing dust particles. This Cold Air Intake pulls cooler denser air from inside the inner fender well to make more power that you can feel.

Reusable Filter. Included in this kit is a SR Performance High Flow reusable air filter. So there is no need to go out and buy a new filter every few thousand miles. Just clean the filter, re-oil it, save money, and go!

Powdered Coated Finish. The SR Performance Cold Air Intake will not only improve horsepower and acceleration, but it will also improve your Mustang's under hood appearance with a stealthy matte black powder coated finish. Now you can have the best of both worlds: performance and style.

Simple Install. The SR Performance Cold Air Intake kit is relatively easy to install with only basic hand tools needed. No extra modifications are required for the installation. See the video below for a basic overview of the installation process.

Application. This SR Performance Cold Air Intake System is specifically designed to fit the 1996 to 2004 GT Mustangs equipped with the 4.6L engine and does not require re-tuning the vehicles computer for operation. Does not fit Bullitt models.

Technical Note. The Mass Airflow Housing and Sensor are not included. This kit is designed to reuse the factory unit.

Will this CAI work with a strut tower brace? I have the SR Performance strut tower brace on my GT. Want to know if there are any issues with install concerning the brace getting in the way.

yes it will
I have a 97 GT 2V with a SR Strut Tower Brace setup along with the Polished version of the SR CAI and all is well. I can't imagine both products installed in the same vehicle made by the same manufacturer being an issue and if so, it would be like shooting yourself in thew foot. ;-) I would "Highly Recommend" both products as I have enjoyed and love the improvements, especially the CAI....

can this be used through winter, will it suck water into my engine in rainy weather??

The SR Performance Black Cold Air Intake is safe to use all year round as this is still tucked safely inside of the engine compartment which is secured against water (With all original body equipment installed).

Does this intake fit the 70mm throttle body from Sr performance? I just installed the 70mm and the factory tube obviously does not fit. 1 answer

curious about the optional tune? 1 answer

This intake does not require a tune to work properly on your Mustang but if you are looking for the same performance gains as we list on the page, you will need a custom tune to achieve those numbers. The 35 HP and 54 TQ gains we saw were with a 93 Bama tune.

Fit perfect car runs great. A piece of advice during installation when maneuvering the heat shield against the body have the rubber grommets on the body of the car not on the shield. Helps with lining it up!

Great price to performance.

The construction feels really good for how inexpensive the intake was. It looks really cool the way it goes into your fender well. Fitment is pretty solid as well. It adds a little bit of sound too.

Fit nicely

The intake is great. Easy to assemble and easy to take out. But if you are running a aftermarket throttle body, you may want to run out and grab a bigger silicon boot for the intake to throttle body one. I have a 73mm and it stretched to fit with the help of a screwdriver.

cool alternate appearance

takes a few minutes for the install im guessing. I still have not taken the time to do this yet. im waiting on Headers first. I want to use long tube headers but I will be cutting the exhaust short to exit just before the rear wheels. This process will leave me short and possibly without mufflers.

Great first cold air intake

I recently purchased this product because I have been researching cold air intakes and it was the best cold air intake for the value. Product is easy to install and very well built. I only have 2 issues with it. 1st issue is that the lower vacuum line directly next to the valve cover is touching the oil cap. Which makes putting the oil fill cap on a little bit difficult. 2nd issue is thatThe grommet on the left side of the intake directly next to the right front suspension bracket Has a small hole. Which causes a vacuum leak and I think that if this product is purchased for a 4.6 l it should come with a fully sealed grommet

Does not fit

I was replacing my intake manifold. While I had it apart thought I would clean things up under the hood. So I purchased this intake to replace the rusty one already intalled. IT DID NOT FIT!!! waste of my time and money.

Looks great!

Bought the SR Cold Air Intake not for performance but to change the look under the hood. And it does that very well. Engine bay looks cleaner now. Installation was not hard although one of the vent tubes hits on the oil cap. This was making me think I was installing it wrong but then I read others with the same issue.
