Product Information

Full details

The MST Performance Intake Clear Cover is an essential upgrade for automotive enthusiasts who have already installed an MST Intake Kit and want to showcase their engine components while adding a layer of protection. It is designed for owners of vehicles compatible with MST kits MST-BW-B4801 and MST-BW-B5801, providing a clear window to monitor system health without disassembly. The primary caveat is that this product requires a pre-existing compatible MST intake system to function as intended, as it is a specialized add-on component rather than a standalone intake upgrade.
