What Owners Say
Owners and enthusiasts consistently praise the AMS Air Intakes for their precision construction and noticeable performance gains, with many noting a significant difference in power and acceleration that makes driving more enjoyable. The system earns specific recognition for its quality machining and thoughtful design details like stepped couplers that eliminate installation guesswork. While tuners appreciate the turbo noise and performance potential, several note that as a proper closed-box cold air intake system, it runs quieter than some expected, and gains can be marginal on stock tunes. The consensus remains that AMS delivers a well-engineered intake system that shines particularly on tuned builds running higher boost levels.
