DC Sports Short Ram Intake (18-23 Kia Stinger & Genesis G70)
Breathe new life into your turbo-charged 2.0T with the DC Sports Short Ram Intake and its twin-fit Genesis G70 application. By swapping out the muffled factory airbox for a mandrel-bent 6061-T6 aluminum tube, this kit maintains a true, turbulence-free inner diameter that lets the turbo spool harder and faster. A durable silver powder coat resists corrosion and reflects engine-bay heat, while the laser-cut heat shield keeps the high-flow cotton filter fed with cooler air for consistently lower charge temps.
Air filtration is handled by a reusable, high-flow cotton element that supports higher mass-air readings without sacrificing particle capture. Wash the filter with a mild cleaner, re-oil it every 10–15 k miles, and it will outlast disposable paper elements many times over. Expect a sharper turbo spool and a prominent induction note once the resonated factory airbox is removed; the extra “whoosh” at wide-open throttle is normal for an open-filter design.
The aluminum intake tube lines up on both the Stinger and the G70, including the MAF housing and crankcase breather connections. The Stinger-spec heat shield generally clears the G70 engine bay but may foul on a core-support brace, especially on manual-transmission models, so some owners run the kit without the shield or trim the mounting tab. Right-hand-drive Stinger fitment is still being evaluated, and DC Sports will publish confirmation tests when they are complete.
Emissions compliance is another frequent topic. The SRI2000 is not CARB-exempt, and no Executive-Order sticker is supplied, so the kit is intended for track or off-road use in states that enforce California emissions standards. If you need a CARB-legal solution, DC Sports recommends retaining the OEM intake until a certified alternative becomes available.
In short, the SRI2000 delivers smoother airflow, reusable filtration, and a sportier induction sound for Kia Stinger and Genesis G70 owners willing to forego the stock airbox. Install with basic hand tools, double-check all clamps for airtight seals, and enjoy the improved throttle response that comes from feeding the Theta-II turbo a cooler, less restricted air charge.
What you’ll feel (and hear):
- Quicker throttle response thanks to smoother airflow and reduced pressure drop
- A deep, pronounced induction note under boost—complete with that addictive “whoosh” at wide-open throttle
- Reusable oiled cotton filtration that’s serviceable every 10-15k miles, saving money and landfill waste over disposable paper elements
Designed around the factory MAF location, the aluminum intake tube retains OEM sensor accuracy and includes provisions for the crankcase breather, so there’s no need for guesswork during install. On 2019-2024 Genesis G70 models the heat shield generally bolts right in; if a core-support brace contacts the shield, a quick tab trim or omission of the shield resolves clearance issues. (Right-hand-drive Stinger fitment testing is ongoing.)
Track-day ready:
Although this intake is not currently CARB-exempt, the performance gains and unmistakable sound make it the go-to upgrade for enthusiasts in non-emissions-restricted regions or dedicated motorsport builds.
