Increase Horsepower with AIRAID Air Intake for Toyota Tacoma and FJ Cruiser

The intake system replaces the OEM air filter but also utilizes any factory cold air inlet ducts

The SYNTHAMAX filter media is comprised of two distinct layers of performance synthetic materials

The Toyota 1GR-FE was an all-aluminum 4.0 L V6 engine designed for longitudinal mounting in pickup and SUV applications. Common in truck engines, the engines is slightly undersquare, with a 3.70 bore and a stroke of 3.74 inches. First generation output is 236 horsepower on 87 octane gasoline, and 239 horsepower on 91 octane fuel. This engine features Toyota's VVT-i, variable valve timing system on the intake cam and a compression ratio of 10.0:1.

For the 2009 model year for the FJ Cruiser and the 2010 model year for the Tacoma, Toyota installed an updated version of this engine features Dual VVT-i, increasing output to 270 horsepower on 87 octane gasoline and 285 horsepower on 91 octane fuel.

The AIRAID 512-179 air intake system is engineered to give your engine larger amounts of cooler air to produce more horsepower and torque.

The intake system replaces the OEM air filter but utilizes any factory cold air inlet ducts that are present, like the factory air intake tube, while adding additional cold air passages which deliver a big boost in intake air. The cold air dam panels keep the filter isolated from hot engine compartment air by sealing to the underside of the hood via blade-style rubber weatherstripping. The net result is not only an intake system that feeds your engine incremental air, but also air that's cooler, as a greater volume of cooler air makes more power.

The 512-179 has been certified by the California Air Resource Board (CARB EO Number: D-609-18)

The AIRAID air intake system is easy to install with hand tools and can be completed in a few hours

This engine has special cast-iron cylinder liners cast into the block, which are a spiny type to improve mechanical adhesion between the liner and cylinder block. With these special thin liners it is impossible to re-bore the block. In the event of cylinder wall damage (scoring, deep protrusions, etc.), the entire cylinder block must be replaced.

That's where the AIRAID premium filter comes in. It's a performance high air flow air filter that is designed not only to increase horsepower and torque for your engine, but also provide superior filtration of dirt and dust particles that can damage your engine.

The SYNTHAMAX air filter media is supported by two layers of wire mesh to resist deformation or collapse under high air flow volumes. The filter media is comprised of two distinct layers of synthetic materials that each have unique performance characteristics designed to work together to provide outstanding air flow and exceptionally high filtration capabilities.

The AIRAID cold air intake system is easy to install with common hand tools, and can be installed under the hood of your Toyota Tacoma or Toyota FJ Cruiser in less than a few hours. And one thing many aftermarket air intakes can't claim is that this system is 50 state legal. And AIRAID's "No Hassle" Lifetime Warranty is simple.
