TM-2013B-R
Overview:
The aFe Takeda Momentum Sealed Air Intake System is engineered specifically for the 2.0L H4 engines found in the 2013–2016 Scion FR-S, 2017–2020 Toyota 86, and 2013–2020 Subaru BRZ models. Designed to replace the restrictive factory intake, this sealed system delivers enhanced airflow and improved engine breathing for enthusiasts seeking reliable power gains and throttle response improvements. Ideal for daily drivers and performance enthusiasts alike, the Takeda Momentum intake provides a perfect balance of performance, filtration, and ease of maintenance.
With a focus on maximizing cold air delivery, this intake system captures fresh air from the front of the vehicle through a built-in air scoop, ensuring cooler, denser air reaches the engine for optimal combustion efficiency.
Key Features:
The Takeda Momentum Sealed Air Intake incorporates advanced design elements and high-quality components to boost performance and durability:
- Sealed one-piece rotomolded air box with integrated air scoop for direct cold air intake
- Large 360-degree high-flow Pro DRY S or Pro 5R air filter options for superior filtration and airflow
- Wrinkle black rotomolded intake tube engineered to minimize airflow restriction and turbulence
- Patent-pending airtight filter-to-housing interface ensuring a flawless seal and preventing unfiltered air entry
- Aerodynamic rounded filter top reduces air resistance and smooths airflow into the intake tract
- Outflows factory intake by 54%, significantly improving volumetric efficiency
- Includes all necessary hardware for a complete, hassle-free installation
Filter Options
This intake system is available with two premium filter media choices to suit different preferences:
- Pro DRY S Filter: A dry synthetic filter that requires no oiling and cleans easily with soap and water, offering convenience and low maintenance.
- Pro 5R Oiled Filter: An oiled cotton gauze filter designed for maximum airflow and filtration efficiency, ideal for enthusiasts who prefer traditional filter media.
Construction & Design:
The Takeda Momentum intake features a durable rotomolded construction that provides strength and heat resistance while maintaining a lightweight profile. The intake tube’s wrinkle black finish not only adds a sleek appearance but also helps reduce heat soak. The sealed air box design isolates the filter from engine bay heat, ensuring the intake draws in cooler air from outside the engine compartment. Every component is precision-engineered to fit perfectly and withstand the rigors of daily driving and spirited performance use.
Performance & Sound
Dyno testing of the Takeda Momentum Sealed Air Intake has demonstrated measurable gains of approximately 9 horsepower and 10 lb-ft of torque over the factory intake. This improvement is achieved through a 54% increase in airflow, allowing the engine to breathe more freely and respond more quickly to throttle inputs. The intake also produces a subtle, aggressive induction sound that enhances the driving experience without being intrusive.
Installation & Fitment:
Installation is straightforward and designed to be completed with basic hand tools in about one hour. The system is a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory intake with no modifications required. All mounting hardware and detailed instructions are included to ensure a smooth and secure fitment on all applicable models.
