Product Description

The aFe 52-10016R Rapid Induction Intake with Pro 5R Filter is a premium cold air intake system engineered for select Mercedes-Benz and Infiniti vehicles equipped with 2.0 L turbocharged engines. By replacing the restrictive factory intake with a high-flow oiled cotton gauze filter and a dyno-tuned intake tube, this system significantly increases airflow, improving throttle response and supporting measurable gains in horsepower and torque. The large 8" 360° Pro 5R filter element delivers excellent filtration while being washable and reusable for long maintenance intervals.

Installation is straightforward with a direct bolt-on design using existing factory mounting points - no cutting or drilling required. The durable powder-coated steel heat shield helps isolate intake air from engine bay heat, preserving cooler intake temperatures for more consistent performance. Please note this intake is **not currently CARB exempt** and therefore **cannot be used in California or other CARB-required states**. Fitment is confirmed for supported Mercedes-Benz A250/B250/CLA250/GLA250 and Infiniti Q30/QX30 2.0 L models through 2020.
