Cold Air Intake Kit for Hyundai Genesis Coupe (2010-2012) with 3.8L V6

Maximize Airflow and Induction Sound for the Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8L Lambda II RS

Who It’s For: Designed specifically for 2010–2012 Hyundai Genesis Coupe (BK1) owners running the 3.8L Lambda II RS engine.

The Problem: The factory intake system on the Lambda II RS is built to meet strict NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) standards. This means it’s packed with plastic baffles and resonators that disrupt airflow and muffle the V6 tone, leading to a sluggish throttle response. The stock airbox is more of a silencer than a performance component, restricting the engine’s ability to breathe during high-load pulls.

The Solution: This high-flow cold air intake system replaces the restrictive stock assembly with a streamlined, mandrel-bent path for oxygen-rich air. We’ve engineered this to correct the factory design flaws of the Lambda II RS, allowing for laminar airflow into the intake manifold. This reduces pumping losses and improves the volumetric efficiency of your V6, delivering a noticeable change in how the car pulls toward redline.

Why This is the Ultimate Upgrade

• Optimized Power Curve: By reducing intake restriction, you’ll see a measurable 8-10% gain in horsepower and torque, particularly in the mid-to-high RPM range where the Lambda II RS usually starts to choke.
• True V6 Sound Profile: Removes the factory resonators to provide a deep, aggressive induction growl under wide-open throttle while remaining civil during highway cruising.
• Bolt-On Installation: This is a direct-fit kit that requires no permanent vehicle modification. It uses factory mounting points for a secure, vibration-free fit in the engine bay.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility & OEM Reference

Fits the Following Vehicles:

• 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe (3.8L V6)
• 2011 Hyundai Genesis Coupe (3.8L V6)
• 2012 Hyundai Genesis Coupe (3.8L V6)

Fitment Note: This kit is engineered exclusively for the Coupe chassis. It is NOT compatible with the Hyundai Genesis Sedan models. Pro Tip: For the best results, disconnect your battery for 10 minutes during the install; this forces the ECU to reset its long-term fuel trims and adapt more quickly to the increased airflow of the new intake.
