Product Description

For years, the Subaru community asked for a "no compromise" intake. The COBB Tuning Redline Carbon Fiber Intake is the answer. This isn't just a plastic pipe wrapped in a carbon sticker. The entire airbox and integrated scoop are molded from multiple layers of real 2x2 Twill Carbon Fiber. It is lightweight, incredibly strong, and features a deep gloss finish that makes it the centerpiece of any engine bay.

Subarus are notoriously picky about intakes. If the air hitting the MAF sensor is turbulent, the car will idle roughly and hesitate under load. COBB engineers solved this with a custom Composite Velocity Stack. This design smooths the air as it enters the piping, and a unique Air Flow Straightener Grid ensures the sensor gets a precise reading every time. The housing is made from a high-temp composite to reduce heat transfer, keeping the intake charge cool.

Want a quiet daily driver or a loud weekend warrior? You get both. The airbox features a removable billet aluminum plate on the fender side.

• Plate On: The system acts as a sealed airbox, drawing cold air exclusively from the front grille scoop.

• Plate Off: The box opens up to the fender well, drawing in more volume and significantly amplifying the Induction Noise (turbo spool and BPV venting).

Despite looking like a complex aero part, installation is a breeze. The integrated scoop and box drop in as a single unit using supplied brackets. Once installed, accessing the massive filter for cleaning is straightforward—no need to disassemble the whole front end.

The Redline Series resets the bar for what a Subaru intake should be. It marries the exotic look of carbon fiber with the reliability of COBB's data-driven engineering. Whether you are chasing horsepower on a Stage 3 build or just want to tidy up the engine bay of a daily driver, this is the premier choice. It fits, it flows, and it looks absolutely stunning. Upgrade to Redline.
