The Forester XT is the sleeper of the Subaru range - a 2.0 turbo boxer in sensible SUV clothing, breathing through a restrictive standard air box. This MST Performance cold air intake system replaces that box with precision-engineered aluminium pipework, designed to accelerate airflow into the turbo and cut turbulence. The XT keeps its family-car manners but gains a cleaner intake route and a boxer note you can hear under load. Fits 2015-on Forester XT 2.0 models, with all fittings supplied for a direct OEM-replacement install.
Best For
Forester XT owners letting the turbo boxer out of hiding
Family SUVs that work hard and deserve to breathe properly
Standard or remapped XTs opening up the intake side
Swapping ageing factory intake plumbing for hard aluminium pipework
The Sleeper Gets A Voice
Part of the XT's appeal is how unassuming it is - but there is no rule the driver cannot hear the engine. MST design their kits around faster, smoother airflow with minimal restriction, built from top-quality components. On the turbocharged Forester that means a better feed to the turbo under real loads and an induction note that surfaces only when you ask.
Included Items: All fittings for a direct OEM-replacement install
Fitment type: vehicle and engine specific
Fitment And Setup Checks
For the Forester XT with the 2.0 turbo from 2015 on. Naturally-aspirated Foresters and diesel models are different applications, so confirm your car is the XT turbo and check the part number against your model year before ordering.

Frequently asked questions
Will this fit a non-turbo Forester?
No - it is designed for the XT with the 2.0 turbo from 2015 on. Naturally-aspirated models have a different intake arrangement.
Does it suit a remapped XT?
Yes. MST build their kits for standard vehicles and already-tuned cars alike, so it pairs well with software work.
