Built for performance and show, the HPS Black Short Ram Air Intake for the 2011-2016 Scion tC 2.5L provides a free-flowing, mandrel-bent aluminum tube induction system designed to increase horsepower and torque while maintaining a safe air-fuel ratio, resulting in improved throttle response. Compared to a cold air intake, the HPS short ram intake is a convenient way to change intakes on rainy days where water might be ingested into a cold air system. The included installation manual provides clear photos and instructions to guide the installer through the process. This kit requires no tuning and does not necessitate modifications to the factory mandrel-bent aluminum alloy tubing. It optimizes airflow over the restrictive stock airbox, providing excellent heat dissipation and long-lasting durability. The HPS Short Ram Air Intake kit features HPS's signature race-proven reinforced silicone hoses and industrial-grade 100% stainless steel T-bolt clamps to ensure reliability under the most extreme driving conditions. The all-new HPS Performance air filter is designed with performance in mind, delivering excellent filtration without sacrificing airflow. It is washable and reusable. All HPS Performance air filters are made in the USA and are backed by the HPS 1-year limited warranty. Not CARB compliant. This HPS intake is designed for the 2011-2016 Scion tC 2.5L.
Before Ordering
〇 Regarding Import Consumption Tax
At the Shafutoya shopping site, we cover the import consumption tax incurred at the time of import on your behalf, so there will be no additional charges beyond the total amount paid at checkout.
〇Verification of Fitment
Our entire product database is based on North American (USDM) vehicles; please verify whether the product is compatible with Japanese (JDM) vehicles before ordering. (If you are unsure if a listed product fits your vehicle, please feel free to contact us. Our support team will be happy to check for you.)
If you place an order without confirming compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if products are sorted by selecting the year, manufacturer, and model using the tabs on our top page, this does not necessarily mean they will fit Japanese models without modification.
All products have been translated into Japanese using translation software. Due to the potential for confusing expressions, please contact us before ordering if you have any questions.
○ Regarding Shipping
Shipping costs are paid at the time of checkout. Shipping estimates are calculated automatically once you enter your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, the actual shipping cost may occasionally differ significantly from the automatic calculation. In such cases, we will contact you individually via email.
All products are generally shipped internationally from our US warehouse. Unlike domestic shipping within Japan, international shipping takes approximately 7 to 14 days, so please allow sufficient time when ordering. If you are in a hurry, please contact us in advance to confirm the delivery date. Note that all products are transported by air freight; they are not shipped via sea freight.
○ Regarding Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken) Compatibility
The products we handle are generally designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please note that they are not compliant with the "Japanese vehicle inspection (Shaken) system," and we cannot provide strength evaluation documents or similar paperwork for these purposes. Therefore, all parts are sold for "use on circuits, private property, or off-road use only," and installation and use are at your own risk.
○ Regarding Warranty
Please check the contents immediately upon arrival. Since all products are shipped internationally from outside Japan, packaging boxes and products may sustain shipping damage. Please understand that we will only provide returns, refunds, or replacements for products with shipping damage, defective items, or items different from what was ordered if you contact us within 7 days of receipt. Furthermore, for products sold through our company, all warranty-related support will be handled "exclusively through us." We do not provide support through other companies or distributors located within Japan.
