The AEM Performance Cold Air Intake System produces Horsepower and Torque gains by replacing your vehicle’s restrictive factory air filter and air intake housing. This air intake system was designed, tuned and dyno-tested to fit specific Lexus NX200T models. Air enters the system through an oversized AEM Dryflow synthetic washable air filter for outstanding air flow, filtration and performance. The air filter is placed into the original air box location and is protected by a heat shield which is designed to reduce intake air Temperature and increase Horsepower. The air intake tube is constructed from mandrel-bent Aluminum featuring a durable gunmetal gray powder coated finish. The tapered cylinder shaped AEM Dryflow air filter is made from an oil-free, synthetic filter media that can be used for up to 100,000 Miles before cleaning is needed (depending on driving conditions). The air intake system is easy to install with commonly available tools and it is backed by AEM's Lifetime Limited Warranty.
