Performance Air Intake W/Heat Shield For Nissan Maxima (2009-2017) With 3.5L V6 Engine POLISH BLACK

Performance Cold Air Intake System with Heat Shield for Nissan Maxima 3.5L V6 (2009–2017)

Unlock the full potential of the "Four-Door Sports Car" with this precision-engineered cold air intake system. Designed specifically for the VQ35DE 3.5L V6 engine, this upgrade honors the Maxima’s long-standing heritage of blending luxury with sport-tuned performance. By replacing the restrictive factory air box, this system allows your V6 to breathe more freely, resulting in sharper throttle response and a significant increase in power that you can feel every time you merge onto the highway or accelerate away from a stoplight.

Imagine a driving experience where the hesitation of a stock intake is replaced by immediate, linear acceleration. This system optimizes the airflow path to deliver cooler, denser air directly to the manifold, supporting more efficient combustion. The result is a gain of up to 10% in horsepower and torque, providing that extra surge of energy that makes the Maxima a standout in its class.

The intake is constructed from premium T304 lightweight aluminum piping, which provides a durable and heat-resistant channel for incoming air. Beyond the performance metrics, the system transforms the auditory profile of your vehicle. Under load, it produces a deep, throaty engine note that highlights the sophisticated growl of the Nissan V6 without sacrificing the refined cabin comfort you expect.

To ensure peak performance even in high-temperature environments, this kit includes a dedicated heat shield. This shield acts as a thermal barrier, blocking radiant engine heat from reaching the intake filter and ensuring that only the coolest air is utilized. The high-flow synthetic air filter is not only efficient at trapping contaminants but is also fully washable and reusable. With a maintenance interval of 50,000 miles under normal conditions, it is a sustainable solution that eliminates the need for disposable paper filters.

This cold air intake is designed as a direct bolt-on upgrade, utilizing factory mounting points for a seamless fit. Installation is straightforward and can be completed in about an hour using common hand tools. It is compatible with all transmission types and is engineered to work within factory parameters, ensuring it will not void your vehicle warranty.
