ipd Short Ram Intake for ME4 1994-98 850 C70 S70 V70 Turbo Models

Engine compartment temperatures on today’s vehicles are higher than ever. With hood seals, belly pans, air guides, and tight fitting power trains, the engine compartment doesn’t have the same empty space and airflow it once did. Factor in the high flow coolant fans moving radiator heat through the engine compartment and you’ve got enough heat to slow cook a pot roast. Using ambient air for engine consumption just makes sense; colder air is denser and can be matched with more fuel, which results in more power. Unfortunately many of the "cold air intake" kits available today are merely a tube with a high flow filter on the end. While this is a step in the right direction major considerations are being overlooked that would maximize the gain.

This short RAM will fit 1994-1997 850 Turbo models, 1998 S70 Turbo, 1998 V70 Turbo &1998 C70 Turbo models.

Product Fitment Notes & Potential Issues

Some 1998 models have a Secondary Air System (SAS) used to reduce emissions.The SAS system normally draws it's air supply from the factory air filter box. Since our Short Ram Intake replaces the factory air box, these models will need an additional filter for SAS. See recommended products tab below if your model needs this filter. 

See image below to determine if your vehicle has SAS.
