Performance Air Intake for Nissan Versa (2007-2012) 1.8L

Sharpen Throttle Response and Airflow for your Nissan Versa MR18DE

Who It’s For: Designed specifically for 2007-2012 Nissan Versa owners running the 1.8L MR18DE engine who want to wake up their daily driver.

The Problem: The MR18DE is a reliable workhorse, but the factory air box is built for silence, not efficiency. It utilizes a restrictive, convoluted plastic intake path and a thick paper filter that creates significant air turbulence. This results in a "lazy" throttle feel and prevents the engine from breathing freely at higher RPMs.

The Solution: We engineered this intake to replace the baffled factory plumbing with mandrel-bent, polished aluminum piping. By streamlining the air path to the MR18DE, we reduce intake resistance and drop air temperatures, delivering a noticeable improvement in acceleration and a much more aggressive engine note under load.

Why This is the Ultimate Upgrade

• Enhanced Induction Efficiency: The smooth-bore aluminum piping allows for a higher volume of air to reach the combustion chamber, typically resulting in gains of 5-15 HP depending on supporting mods.
• Lifetime Washable Filter: Stop wasting money on disposable paper filters. This kit includes a high-flow, washable element that can be refreshed using any standard cleaning kit (like K&N or AEM).
• Bolt-On Installation: This is a true direct-fit kit. No additional hardware or custom fabrication is required to fit this to your 1.8L S or SL trim Versa.
