Engineered Elegance for Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII, VIII, & IX (CT9A)
When it comes to the legendary 4G63-powered Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII, VIII, and IX, heat management and efficient airflow are everything. Generic intake pods might sound aggressive, but they often suck in turbulent, power-robbing engine bay heat.
The GruppeM Carbon Fiber Ram Air Intake System is the ultimate remedy. Hand-crafted in Japan, this intake is widely regarded as the pinnacle of induction systems for the CT9A platform, treating your engine bay to functional art that extracts maximum performance from your turbocharger.
The Ram Air Advantage
GruppeM’s philosophy is simple: prevent heat soak and optimize air velocity. Instead of a basic open-element filter, this system uses an autoclave-formed carbon fiber ducting shield that seamlessly integrates with the front grill of your Evo.
-
True Cold-Air Isolation: The sweeping carbon fiber shroud creates a sealed barrier between the filter and ambient engine heat, ensuring your turbo draws exclusively from a pressurized pocket of fresh, dense outside air.
-
The Ram Effect: As vehicle speed increases, air is forced into the forward-facing scoop, naturally creating a positive pressure zone (ram effect) that helps the turbo spool faster and hit peak boost with less effort.
-
K&N High-Flow Core: At the heart of the enclosure sits a proprietary, multi-layer cotton gauze cone filter engineered by K&N to GruppeM's strict specifications, offering maximum filtration surface area with minimal flow restriction.
