The Mishimoto Performance Air Intake for the 2022–2023 Subaru WRX is designed to improve airflow efficiency, throttle response, and turbo sound while maintaining smooth daily drivability on Subaru’s VB platform.

By reducing intake restriction compared to the factory system, this intake allows the turbocharger to draw air more efficiently, resulting in quicker throttle response and improved turbo spool. The design prioritizes balanced, real-world performance rather than aggressive tuning-only gains, making it well suited for street-driven vehicles.

Developed and validated by Mishimoto, this intake system features durable intake piping and a high-flow air filter engineered for consistent airflow and long service life. Under boost, expect a deeper, more pronounced induction sound, while normal driving remains controlled and refined.

Whether installed on a stock VB WRX or as part of a growing performance build, the Mishimoto Performance Air Intake provides a dependable foundation upgrade with OEM-quality fitment and long-term reliability.
