The AEM 21-8504DP Brute Force Air Intake System produces horsepower and torque gains by replacing the vehicle's restrictive factory air filter and air intake housing. This air intake system was designed, tuned and dyno-tested to fit specific Nissan Frontier, Xterra and Pathfinder models. Air enters the system through an extra-large AEM Dryflow synthetic washable air filter for outstanding air flow, filtration and performance. The air filter is located in the original air box space and is protected by a heat shield which is designed to reduce intake air temperature and increase horsepower. The intake tubing is constructed from mandrel-bent aluminum featuring a durable chrome-like finish. This air intake system was developed to accommodate the engine's factory emissions control devices including the mass air flow sensor and crank case vent hose. 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. Some AEM air intakes are not legal for sale or use in California and other states adopting California emission standards while others are 50 state legal.

Time will tell
Style: CA11053A
As another reviewer pointed out, the OEM paper filter is almost 3 times thicker than this one. All things equal, thicker would mean for filtering surface area. So with less filter media surface area, the filter would clog up quicker. However, since this is washable, maybe that's a moot point. I also noticed on my Hyundai Tucson, the rim of this filter must be slighter thicker because I had a tougher time clipping the filter box closed with this one installed. I am keeping my OEM for now, just in case.

Perfect fit for my 2018 Civic—easy, affordable, and worth it
Size: 9.5" x 10.9" x 2.1"
I’ve bought this cabin air filter multiple times for my 2018 Honda Civic, and it’s consistently great quality. It fits perfectly and is super easy to install—takes just a few minutes to swap out, and I always do it myself. Way cheaper than going to a shop or dealership. The airflow is smooth, there’s no smell at all, and it keeps the inside of my car feeling clean and fresh. No weird odors, no dust blowing in—just a solid, dependable filter that does its job well. This is the only one I’ll keep buying.

Do it mayne
Size: 9.5" x 10.9" x 2.1"
Good quality and fit but find it funny that the instructions with the air flow are on the side. I assume that would be facing out and was annoyed when I tried to close and it didn’t fit. Probably should have read the directions. Still would recommend
