Mazda3 Performance Air Intake.

If you want a simple modification that increases your power, and can improve gas mileage; the CorkSport Mazda3 SRI is for you. With quick installation, this plug and play piece is a great way to start getting more power out of your Mazda 3.

One of the easiest and most beneficial performance enhancements you can do for your vehicle, the CorkSport Mazda3 Power Series Short Ram Intake replaces your factory airbox with an open intake system allowing more air into the intake chamber. Engineered with exacting tolerances, the CorkSport SkyActiv SRI includes our precision machined MAF housing made from billet aluminum, a durable dry flow air filter and custom reinforced silicone connector. In initial testing with the 2.0 Liter SkyActiv engine, the Mazda 3 CorkSport Short Ram Intake netted peak gains of +5 HP and +6 lb torque at the wheels.

The CorkSport Advantage:

Designed Specifically for SkyActiv Gasoline Engines*: CorkSport has developed a Mazda3 power series intake that will perform with the all-new SkyActiv engines
Avoid Unwanted Check-Engine Lights: The MAF housing is precision machined from billet aluminum to prevent air leaks and inaccurate readings.
Improve Power: Initial testing showed peak gains of +5 HP and +6 lb torque at the wheels with the 2.0L and 10hp
Durable Dry Flow Air Filter: Reusable and water resistant, this unique non-woven filter media does not require oil to filter and trap dirt and actually sheds dirt under engine vibration unlike cotton-gauze which holds contaminates until you clean the filter
Custom Reinforced Silicone Connector: Constructed from multi-layer nylon braid to provide more strength and power and a smooth internal transition for less turbulence and optimal flow
Replacement Air Filter is: Available Here
CorkSport Service and Support: Receive a 2-year warranty, full color installation instructions, all of the needed installation hardware, and knowledgeable telephone installation support

*Made for gasoline engines only. Will not work on diesel engines. With the CorkSport Intake installed on the SkyActiv engine, at higher RPM's you may hear a slight ticking from the opening and closing of the injectors. This is completely normal and is what helps increase torque and fuel economy.

Mazda CX-5 Short Ram Intake FAQ and Install Instructions

Fantastic, easy install, noticeable power increase, and great sound. Oh and the throttle response is way better. I will definitely be getting more parts from Corksport for my Mazda.

I typically never leave reviews because usually its not worth the effort. It is well worth the effort this time.

I had a CS SRI but I ended up swapping it out with another manufacturer before I tuned my Mazda 3. There are some flaws with the design that can cause trouble with the MAF.

Also I think a heat shield or box should be available for the SRI.

Not quite a aggressive-sounding as another Short Ram Intake I tried, but this CorkSport Short Ram Intake does have the added benefit of no check engine light. I have had it on for a thousand miles so far and everything is still working great!

Matthew Elieson09/03/2015, 12:36 PM

Just got mine and am going to install this week. Curious if anybody recommends/uses a waterproof pre-filter with their intake? Should I be concerned about hydrolock in heavy rain? Any product recommendations for use with this filter?

Does this work on the 2015 mazda3 skyactiv or is their an updated one coming out?

Silas05/15/2015, 06:49 AM

I've been a CorkSport freak and power spender since my '09 Speed3. I've purchased the CS Downpipe, Full Exhaust, Inlet + Intake, and shifter kit. I now have a '14 Mazda3 and my first mod, and probably my only mod, of course, was the Intake. Yes it has the intake sound which is nice and yes, the 3 or 4 HP gain is ok... but best of all for me is the +4 mpg gain on the freeway. My commute from West Salem to Wilsonville is obviously all freeway. SO... After installing the intake, my avg. MPH combined went from 29.1 to 33.5. Killer Gains for me! And as always, CorkSport's R&D team nailed it! Thank you to the CS Team as always! I'm ready for the next gen Speed3 :)

My girlfriend and I are getting into cars. So this is our first car project. The shipping was pretty fast. Came in a couple of days. Installed it today. It took us a few hours because the o-ring thread broke off. We tried to make do but it didn't work out. Instead we went to oreily and bought a 32x1 bolt and it sized up perfectly. Tested the car looking for a check engine sign. None. Revved the car and it sounded superb. I went for a test ride while my lady made lunch. I could feel the horsepower gain. But love the sounds.

I love it!! The sound that come from it is great and my car is differently quicker and if you drive nice and don't go speeding around and launching at every street light and stop sign like in all cars you will and I did notice a great increase in my mpg but it is very hard to drive nice with the noise the SRI makes when you put your foot down on the gas

Is this SRI C.A.R.B. legal for Cali?

James05/28/2014, 02:57 PM

Very easy to install, worked as advertised (rare these days). Definitely noticed a slight increase in the throttle response and the sound makes me grin like an idiot (which could explain the weird looks). Just ordered the cold air box to go with the SRI and exhaust is next on lists.

I have a 2019 gen 4 mazda 3 2.0L engine. I know you guys came out with a new 2.5L SRI for the gen 4 but im afraid the MAF will be off. Was wondering if this intake would be compatible instead?

Hello guys, I just wanted to know if you need to "oil" the intake with any specific product when proceeding to the maintenance, or simply clean it with water and an intake cleaner. Thanks ;)

How often do you have to clean the filter if at all? And how often should it be replaced.

I've had this for quite a while now and the growling sound during the winter months really had me smiling everyday but now that the sun is out I started to smell burning rubber around the engine. Same goes when I drive at night. I've isolated the smell and it seems to be coming from the rubber part of the SRI. Anyone has this problem?

I am concerned about the heat buildup under the hood as I live in Phoenix and summer temps can hit 110+ easily! Engine breathing hotter air actually lowers horepower and efficiency.. Would you still recommend this product.
