2016 Ford Mustang Engine Cold Air Intakes
If you’re revving up your 2016 Ford Mustang’s performance, adding a cold air intake is a fantastic step, but maintaining that intake is key to getting the most out of it. Regularly check for any signs of wear and tear, like cracks in the intake hose or dirt and debris clogging the filter, which can seriously stifle airflow and affect engine efficiency. You might notice reduced power, increased fuel consumption, or even hear a strange whistling sound when the car is running—these can all be symptoms of a failing cold air intake. Keeping an eye on these elements not only ensures your Mustang performs at its best but also extends the life of your engine’s components.
