Cold Air Intake Kit for 2007-2009 Nissan Altima SE 3.5L V6 | Performance Upgrade

Transform Your Altima Into the Performance Sedan It Was Meant to Be

Remember when the fourth-generation Altima SE redefined what a family sedan could be? With its available 270-horsepower VQ35DE V6 engine, Nissan proved that practicality didn't mean sacrificing excitement. Your Altima SE wasn't just transportation—it was engineered to deliver confident passing power and spirited driving dynamics that made every commute feel special.

Now it's time to unlock even more of that potential. This Cold Air Intake Kit transforms your restrictive factory air box into a performance asset, delivering noticeable gains in horsepower and torque while adding an aggressive sporty look under your hood. Imagine accelerating onto highways with renewed confidence, hearing that deep VQ growl you've been missing, and rediscovering why you chose the SE trim in the first place.

Why Your VQ35DE Deserves Better Airflow

Your Altima's 3.5L V6 is part of Nissan's legendary VQ engine family—recognized multiple times on Ward's 10 Best Engines list for its smooth power delivery and responsive character. But your factory air intake system was designed with compromise in mind: minimal cost, maximum silence, and just enough airflow to meet baseline standards.

This cold air intake removes those compromises. By replacing restrictive factory components with a high-flow design, your engine finally gets the cool, dense air it needs to perform at its best. The result? Better throttle response, improved combustion efficiency, and the aggressive engine note that reminds you there's a performance V6 under your hood.

Better airflow means your engine doesn't have to work as hard to breathe. Many drivers report improved fuel economy during steady highway cruising—power and efficiency working together.

The Sound of Performance

Hear the deep, throaty growl your VQ35DE was meant to produce. This intake amplifies the aggressive intake tone without requiring an aftermarket exhaust system. It's the sound of performance that turns heads at every stoplight.
