Product Description

This NISMO cold air intake system for Nissan Frontier, Xterra or Pathfinder enhances response, power & sound of the engine for better performance. Designed on the dyno with proven gains throughout the rev range, it even out performed the drop-in K&N filter on our test mule (see graph), with 3-4 additional HP & Tq low in the rpm, +4hp/6 ft lb at 5K rpm and 9 hp / 6 ft lb at the wheels on our dyno. Users upgrading from a clean stock air filter will likely double those numbers.
The Nismo intake features a dry air filter and is great for all environments. The dry filter is a favorite for those in dusty dry environments and are easier to service than oil bath filters.
With it's provide heat shield the more open intake provides a more aggressive intake sound over stock system.
The intake is bolt on and does not require additional tuning.

Intake sounds great and operated as described. The metal tubing was pretty damaged with deep scratch marks. Definitely not acceptable to have this kind of damage on an almost $400 part.

Sounds great on the 2005 Nissan Pathfinder se off-road. It does have a slight pull so there is a power increase and it definitely sounds like it too. It was the first thing to start off my nismo build for the off-road Pathfinder but it would be the last. It may be on the more pricey side but tbh it's worth it in my opinion 10/10

Super easy install on my 2018 frontier pro 4x and loving that beautiful nismo sound. It definitely has a quicker response time than the stock.

Small scratches, and small dent however I was able to paint over the scratches and fix the dent. Other then those two, the fit is perfect, the engine sounds amazing, provides better throttle response and price is good.

Quick and easy install, minor bends on the tube ends but easily fixed. Very nice sound, put your foot into it, it’s starts to rumble. You can tell the difference in the response. I look forward to the next upgrade for my xterra.

Have you ever wondered to your self, "how can I make my V6 sound like a racecar?" Then look no further. The Nismo R-Tune cold air intake is here. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!! It sounds SICK!
This is hands down the best sounding intake for the 4.0 Liter Nissan frontier 05-19

The unit feels and sounds great but I had to take one star off because the installation was made difficult by two issues:
1) incomplete hole fabrication in the intake tube where the MAF sensor belongs (had to widen it with a Sawzall)
2) the crankcase breather tube is not long enough to reach the new intake tube because the housing of the stock piece has a portion of the breather tube in it. This required a trip to three auto parts stores to find a longer hose that would fit.
Looking forward to pairing this up with a cat-back exhaust.

Great product! I had a similar air intake a while back but returned it to Amazon. This one was actually cheaper and (supposedly) Nismo tuned. Very easy installation and can’t believe the quick shipping. The Nissan dealership was on back order for 12 weeks, I hit up z1 and they shipped it the very same day. Makes a good sound when accelerating and gives a bit more low end torque.

Sounds good and easy to install. Only problem I've had was squished engine end of the pipe but I was able to make it almost round again.

The NISMO R Tune has exceeded my expectations! This intake produces a deep throated sound when accelerating and delivers noticeable throttle response as compared to the stock intake. Great product well worth the cost.

I have a 05 Xterra with some mods. (Headers, B pipes, Catback, intake manifold spacer and UDP). The addition of the Nismo intake adds a deep tone under acceleration. And sounds more aggressive under city driving conditions. On highway it definitely has a mild tone not obnoxious. Very easy to install. I would suggest finding a color version of the instructions as the pics aren't as clear. Other than that you will be satisfied with the performance! Highly recommend.

I just received the Nismo cold air intake for my 2015 Nissan Frontier yesterday. It was on back order for 2 months, but it's all good because the warranty on my truck just ran out a month ago. I installed it this morning and it looks and sounds great.
The next project I plan to do is the Nismo Cat-Back exhaust, can't wait!

I purchased this intake after watching the “cold air intake shootout.” Even though Volant showed better in the graphs I thought the Nismo sounded better and the number were pretty close. Install took 20ish minutes or so, really easy.
The sound is not really noticeable below 3,500 rpm, but once you get above it sounds amazing.
