Cold Air Intake for Nissan Frontier (2005-2019) 4.0L V6 Engine Black

Wake up your truck. Ditch the restrictive factory airbox and get the throttle response and induction growl your rig should have had off the showroom floor.

Performance Cold Air Intake for Nissan Frontier (VQ40DE)

The 4.0L V6 in the 2005-2019 Frontier is a proven, reliable workhorse. But if you have spent any time driving one, you know the factory intake setup leaves a lot to be desired. The stock corrugated plastic tubing and bulky paper filter housing create unwanted turbulence, choking off the engine when you need passing power or low-end grunt for towing.

By swapping the factory restriction for a streamlined T304 aluminum pipe and a high-flow conical filter, you instantly smooth out the air path. This direct flow translates directly into sharper pedal feel and a noticeable bump in mid-range torque. Plus, it finally lets you hear that classic V6 exhaust note under heavy acceleration without dealing with a droning exhaust system on the highway.

Why You Need This Upgrade

• Noticeable Power Gains: Boosts horsepower and torque by up to 10%, giving you better acceleration and towing capability.
• Sharper Throttle Response: Smooth aluminum piping eliminates the turbulence of the stock corrugated tube, making your right foot feel directly connected to the engine.
• Aggressive Induction Sound: Delivers a deep, throaty intake roar under load while remaining quiet while cruising.
• Never Buy Another Filter: The included high-flow filter is fully washable and only requires cleaning every 50,000 miles under normal driving conditions.
• Warranty Safe: Designed to comply with manufacturer regulations, so you can upgrade without stressing about your dealership.

Installation Notes

This is a straightforward bolt-on job that takes less than an hour in the driveway. You only need basic hand tools like flathead screwdrivers and a standard socket set to remove the factory airbox and mount the new aluminum piping. Crucial step: Always disconnect the negative terminal on your battery before starting. Leave it disconnected during the install so your engine computer resets and properly calibrates to the increased airflow.
