The DC Sports Short Ram Intake System for your 16-21 Lexus IS200t/300 or 2017+ Lexus RC 200t or 300 RWD with the 2.0T engine is designed to improve performance and increase throttle response. We replace your restrictive, brittle, OEM rubber intake pipe with smooth mandrel-bent aluminum tubing and pair it with a DC Sports high flow, performance air filter. This allows for increased airflow, cooler air ingestion, and reduced intake air temps. Every DC Sports intake kit comes with all the needed hardware for installation and requires absolutely no modification or cutting.
Included:
Heat Shield
Washable and Reusable High Flow, Performance Air Filter
Multi-Ply High Temp Silicone Couplers
Lightweight Aluminum Tubing
