Finally...
The time has come! I introduce to you, the world's first true cold air intake for the Kia Stinger 3.3TT! Below are some late-development photos. Final photos will be coming soon but this is exactly what you can expect sound and looks wise! Scroll down for sound clips!

AGAIN...THESE PHOTOS ARE MID DEVELOPMENT ZIP-TIES WILL NOT BE USED IN THE FINAL APPLICATION...lol :)




It has been a long time coming but we are extremely excited to finally announce the official pre-order release of our SSR Performance Dual Front Mount Cold Air Intakes! As you guys know we kept this project under wraps, and it was for good reason. This is the world's first true cold air intake for the Kia Stinger 3.3TT. Our in-house engineering team spent countless hours in R&D including 3D scanning, 3D design and modeling, and then finally 3D printing our custom intake ducts that make this intake possible.

As you can see, our all new front mount intakes take the filters from inside the hot engine bay and put them right where you have the coldest, most dense, air right behind the front grille. Given that the Kia Stinger 3.3TT is turbocharged, this is the best kind of air you can provide for your car to make optimal power.

Similar intakes have been used and proven on turbo motors for years now including applications on BMW's, Infiniti's, and more. This is the first time this application has been designed for use on a Kia.

For the first time ever, these intakes are available at a discounted rate!
PRE-ORDER $629.00
MSRP $729.00

These looks so good. Any concerns with water ingestion through the intakes?

Thank you very much for your kind words sir :)

Applications very similar to these have been well tested in the rain, so unless you're driving through a hurricane / freakish storm.. you'll be just fine :)

So as stated, behind grille applications like these have been used for years now on BMW's (a platform we happen to specialize in) and we have never seen issues come up. With test after test being performed on them and the intakes passing every time, there is nothing to be concerned about in normal conditions. As mentioned though, it probably isn't the smartest idea to drive through an insane storm with these on, or any other open element filter intakes, for that matter.

Now this is first cold air intake for stinger as others are short rams all with filters inside the engine bay and these are placed behind the bumper and I congratulate you for this move [:o]

Question, is it necessary to have the pipe go around like that, couldnt the pipe from the turbo to the inlet have been shorter, like more direct?

Probably not without relocating stock components. Looks like there's AC lines on the driver's side

I like the design, but here in Phoenix area we have Haboobs and Monson's, it seems either one of those storms would clog those intakes. 85 to 90% of the time that setup would work assume, its the other 10 to 15% of the time that you would have to worry about.

Welcome aboard @Robmag, I do believe that they discontinued those intakes.
