Cold Air Intake for Nissan Maxima (2007–2008) 3.5L V6
Enhance the performance and driving experience of your Nissan Maxima with this cold air intake system, engineered specifically for the 3.5L V6 engine. Known as the "4-Door Sports Car," the Maxima has a long-standing reputation for blending sedan practicality with spirited performance. However, the restrictive factory intake components often stifle the engine's true capability. This system replaces those stock parts with a high-velocity induction path, allowing the engine to breathe freely and delivering a boost in horsepower and torque by up to 10%.
By allowing the engine to draw in cooler, denser air from outside the engine bay, this intake supports more efficient combustion throughout the RPM range. Drivers will notice a sharper throttle response, smoother acceleration, and a more engaging engine sound that highlights the Maxima's sporty DNA. Whether you are navigating your daily commute or enjoying an open highway, the increased air density ensures the engine operates at its peak performance level.
The intake tube is constructed from premium T304 lightweight aluminum with a clean polished finish, providing both long-term durability and a premium under-hood appearance. The smooth internal surfaces of the aluminum tubing help reduce airflow restriction and turbulence compared to the factory plastic accordion hoses, promoting consistent and high-velocity air delivery to the engine.
Maintenance is simplified with the high-flow synthetic air filter. Engineered to balance maximum air volume with superior filtration efficiency, this filter protects the engine from harmful contaminants while supporting the increased airflow needed for improved performance. Because the filter is fully washable and reusable, it requires cleaning only every 50,000 miles under normal conditions, offering a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to disposable paper filters.
This cold air intake system is designed as a direct bolt-on upgrade. It installs using factory mounting points with no permanent modifications required, typically taking less than 60 minutes with basic hand tools. It is engineered to function within factory parameters, making it a practical and reliable performance enhancement that will not void the vehicle warranty.
