Ferrea Competition Plus Intake Valve
2005–2010 Scion tC 2AZ-FE
F2278P
Overview:
The Ferrea Competition Plus Intake Valve is a high-performance upgrade designed specifically for the 2005 to 2010 Scion tC equipped with the 2AZ-FE engine. Crafted to replace the factory intake valves, this set of eight valves offers enhanced durability and optimized airflow for enthusiasts seeking improved engine efficiency and responsiveness. Whether you are building a spirited street car or preparing your vehicle for competitive use, these valves provide a reliable foundation for increased power and throttle response.
Engineered with precision, the Competition Plus Intake Valves are ideal for performance-minded drivers who want to maintain OEM fitment while benefiting from superior materials and design. These valves help support higher RPM operation and improved combustion, contributing to smoother engine performance and potential power gains.
Key Features:
Designed with performance and reliability in mind, the Ferrea Competition Plus Intake Valves offer the following key features:
- Precision-machined 36.5mm valve head diameter optimized for the 2AZ-FE engine.
- Stem diameter of 5.48mm for enhanced strength and reduced flex under high RPM conditions.
- Overall length of 104mm, ensuring exact fitment and compatibility with stock valve guides and seats.
- 12-degree S-Flo valve face angle to improve airflow dynamics and combustion efficiency.
- Constructed from high-quality materials designed to withstand elevated temperatures and stresses of performance driving.
- Set of eight valves included to fully upgrade the intake side of the cylinder head.
- Compatible with stock valve springs and retainers, allowing for straightforward installation without additional modifications.
- Designed to maintain OEM sealing and durability while enhancing airflow characteristics.
Construction & Design:
The Ferrea Competition Plus Intake Valves are manufactured using advanced metallurgical processes to ensure strength and longevity under demanding conditions. The valves feature a carefully engineered S-Flo face angle at 12 degrees, which promotes smoother airflow into the combustion chamber compared to standard flat or less optimized valve faces. This design helps reduce turbulence and increases volumetric efficiency.
Each valve is precision ground to exact dimensions, guaranteeing proper seating and sealing with the factory valve seats. The stem diameter of 5.48mm provides a robust profile that resists bending and wear, especially important for high-RPM or modified engines. These valves are designed to fit directly into the stock cylinder head without requiring machining or special adapters, preserving the integrity of your engine build.
Installation & Fitment:
The Competition Plus Intake Valves are a direct fit replacement for the intake valves on 2005–2010 Scion tC models powered by the 2AZ-FE engine. Installation involves standard valve removal and replacement procedures and can be performed by experienced enthusiasts or professional engine builders. No modifications to the cylinder head or valve train components are necessary.
Because these valves maintain OEM dimensions and sealing surfaces, they integrate seamlessly with factory valve springs, retainers, and seals. This ensures reliable operation and reduces the risk of leaks or premature wear. Proper valve timing and clearance checks should be performed during installation to ensure optimal engine performance and longevity.
