## Overview

The Mishimoto MMAI-CLA45-14BK Performance Air Intake is a direct-fit upgrade for 2014-2019 Mercedes CLA45 AMG models, engineered to boost power by up to 20 whp and 17 lb-ft torque on the stock tune. Featuring a high-flow 4-inch air filter with 2,000 CFM capacity, a CNC-machined silicone turbo inlet hose, and a lightweight black powder-coated aluminum airbox, this intake enhances airflow, turbo spool, and engine sound while maintaining OEM reliability. Installation is straightforward, and the product is covered by Mishimoto’s lifetime warranty.

## Description

Mishimoto has developed a performance air intake engineered specifically for the 2014-2019 Mercedes CLA45 AMG! This CLA45 intake features numerous innovative components, including a silicone turbo inlet hose that contains a co-molded CNC block for the stock sensors and breather ports! The silicone inlet hose was designed with smooth contours and transitions for maximum airflow compared to the stock rubber hose. The combination of this silicone inlet hose and our free-flowing Mishimoto air filter translated to massive gains of 20 whp and 17 wtq at 5900RPM! This CLA45 AMG intake is safe to use with the stock tune as it will not hurt air/fuel ratios under load. This intake has a unique and aggressive tone under acceleration and boost, and the free-flowing design amplifies turbocharger spool and BPV sounds. The stock CLA45 intake duct is utilized to provide cool airflow to the Mishimoto High-Flow Oiled Air Filter, which features increased filtration surface area compared to the stock paper filter. This filter can be cleaned and reused, providing a lifetime of service. The intake includes an enclosed airbox that collects all of the cold outside air from the front of the engine. The airbox is made from 5052 aluminum with a black powder-coated finish to reduce weight compared to a steel intake box, and to prevent against any corrosion. The airbox also protects against engine bay heat-soak, and it provides a stock-like engine bay appearance. This CLA45 AMG intakeis a complete bolt-on that functions perfectly with the stock tune and can be installed in one hour using common hand tools. This kit includes the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty, ensuring superior product quality and craftsmanship.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than stock
*by C***L on April 25, 2022*

Easy installation. Quality parts. Better air flow over stock.

### ⭐⭐⭐ It'll work, but not impressed!
*by B***. on February 23, 2019*

Just installed my new Mishimoto CAI. First off, there were no instructions included, you have to go to YouTube and watch their video which the guy ROCKETS through the install and the video doesn't really detail the steps. Second, you have to Re-use the OEM plastic mounting bracket and Inlet piece from your stock air box. For nearly $400, those seem like simple parts to include or come pre-assembled to the Mishimoto air box. Third, the Mishimoto air box doesn't have a place to clip the OEM Harness to the side like the factory box. Next, all the hardware are different size nuts and bolts! Couldn't use the factory bracket which would've been nice not to have to take another factory part off my car. All in all, I was pretty disappointed in the quality and difficulty of installation for the Price! Installation took about an hour+ and LOTS of tools! The look of the new system isn't much different than what the factory look was! Maybe a plexi-glass window in that metal panel would be nice or something! With the Make and model of my car, my choices were very limited. I hope the performance gains are worth it!
