Why our nitrous system is better:
• A complete 1999-2004 Mustang GT specific nitrous system. Everything is included in this kit for a safe, easy, plug and play installation.
• Adjustable from 75-175 horsepower. Safe enough for stock engines, powerful enough for racing use.
• Uses a custom made Ford fuel rail adaptor. This component gives easy access to the fuel system for nitrous system hook-up, especially the 2003-04 models.
• The 1999-2004 Mustang GT Nitrous System is activated at wide open throttle with advanced electronics that monitor your throttle position sensor (TPS); easy and safe activation.
• Unique nozzle design has “Active Fuel Control™” built in. This feature monitors bottle pressure and when the nitrous system is engaged, it adds or subtracts enrichment fuel so the engine never runs too rich or too lean.

Installation Instructions for: Part Number 21-472 2002-2004 Subaru Impreza RS 2.5L 2003-2004 Subaru Impreza TS 2.5L 2003-2004 Subaru Outback Sport 2.5L.
The AEM Cold Air System is the result of extensive development on a wide variety of cars.
Each system is engineered for the particular application. The AEM Cold Air System differs from
all others in several ways. We take the inlet air from outside of the engine compartment where
the inlet air is considerably cooler than the hot under hood air. The cooler inlet air temperature
translates to more power during the combustion process because cool air is denser than warm
air. AEM has conducted extensive inlet air temperature studies and we have seen temperature
reductions of up to 50 degrees by pulling air from outside of the engine compartment. The air
mass flow to the engine is increased because of the increased airflow and reduced inlet
temperature, which translates to more power. The AEM Cold Air Systems come with complete
instructions for ease of installation.

We hope you are satisfied with the look and performance. You may use any polish or wax on the pipe as it’s painted with the same high quality paint as your car. Please note, with such a large pipe the fit is tight. Take your time and it will be a smooth install. Please note, it has come to our attention that Ford has 4 different motor mounts putting the engine in 4 slightly different positions. This can cause this intake to be very tight to the oil fill cap on a small percentage of models and “may” require slight modification of the cap with a Dremel or grinder to clear this JLT intake.
