Custom Intake Adapter for Acura TLX 2.0T (2021–2023) – USA Made Performance Upgrade
Upgrade your Acura TLX 2.0T’s induction system with this premium performance intake adapter. Specifically engineered for the 2021–2023 2.0L Turbo platform, this adapter allows you to replace the restrictive factory air box with a larger, high-flow performance air filter. By streamlining the airflow path, this kit delivers sharper throttle response, stronger acceleration, and a significantly enhanced turbo induction sound.
Proudly made in the USA, this adapter is constructed from high-performance black ASA plastic. ASA is a superior material choice for modern turbocharged engine bays, offering exceptional resistance to high temperatures, UV exposure, and harsh weather conditions.1 Unlike lower-quality 3D-printed or generic plastic parts, our dense, solid-fill construction ensures long-term structural integrity without warping or melting. This adapter has been extensively real-world tested to provide a reliable, leak-free fit for both daily drivers and spirited performance enthusiasts.

Installation Tip:
Unplug the car battery's NEGATIVE GROUND CABLE before installing this product. After the installation is complete, leave the cable disconnected for at least 60 seconds. This allows the vehicle's ECU to reset and properly calibrate for the increased airflow, helping to optimize performance gains and prevent check engine lights. Always ensure the engine is completely cool before beginning work.
