Keep your intake air temperatures in check with CorkSport’s Short Ram Intake Air Box for the 2019+ Mazda3, CX30 & CX50. The CorkSport Cold Air Box is a great addition to our already fantastic Short Ram Intake we offer for the NA Mazda3, CX30, and CX50. Our Intake AirBox helps block heat from the radiator, engine, and transmission, leaving the only source of air from two places: the fender and the OEM Air Scoop.

The CorkSport Airbox blocks out the hot air from the engine, leaving only the cooler, fresh air from the fender and OEM Air Scoop. This means cooler intake air temps and more power!
Testing of the CorkSport SRI Airbox included spirited driving, as well as remaining stationary on a warm, sunny day (~80°F, 26°C). The graph shown depicts a five-minute period of idling, simulating heavy traffic (or even waiting in line at the drag strip), followed by a period of acceleration up to 50mph (80kph). In our testing, we have found the CS Airbox reduces the average temperature by almost 10°F, compared with our SRI on its own. Our testing was more demanding than you might experience, but we want to highlight how our Airbox performs under the harsh conditions that you might see sitting in traffic on a very hot day. Our Airbox reduces the heat-soak that the SRI can experience while sitting in traffic, giving you cooler intake temps and greater power output.
Designed to be a direct OEM fitment, the OEM rubber isolators and mounting locations are used to provide the simplest installation possible. This allows the Airbox to install like OEM and allow for engine movement in operation. The OEM Air Scoop is retained for additional intake air, leading to multiple intake draw points.
Once the airbox is installed, filter servicing is quick and easy, only need to remove the acrylic cover to access the filter and MAF housing.
The CorkSport SRI Airbox is made of Rotomolded 5mm (0.190”) thick XDPE Plastic. This is the same material that we use for our Auxiliary Fuel Tank for the Mazdaspeed3 and the Turbo Inlet Pipe for the 2021+ Mazda 3 Turbo. It is proven to withstand the elements, high temperatures, and even some abuse with ease. The cover lid is constructed of Acrylic, a material known to withstand high temperatures and provide a beautiful shine in your engine bay.
Designed specifically for the CorkSport SRI and taking full advantage of the OEM snorkel cold air inlet and the fender area for cool ambient air. Make sure to check out the SRI + Airbox if looking for a complete system!

Will it fit a 2019 non turbo Mazda 6
No
If I need to replace the filter where do I datach from the second/middle clamp?. Cause I try to only unbolt from the last clamp to take filter off but I can't pull it out filter too large. I don't want to unbolt from middle where MAF is Everytime.
To change the filter, remove both the MAF housing and air filter together. You should not need to remove the silicone.
Do you lose a significant amount of induction noise with the CAI box vs. the SRI alone?
You will lose some induction noises by installing the CAI.
Will it fit Skyactiv-X 2.0? the engine is different and also is the inteake location. The filter box looks smaller than Skyactiv-G
We do not have Skyactiv X models in North America so we are not able to test.
Do we need to retain the OEM air intake resonator (the bottom half of the inlet duct) during installation? The instructions specify to remove it, but do not specify if we are to install it with the inlet duct or not.
The portion of the snorkel is not reinstalled with our assembly.
