Product Description

The aFe TL-1002P Takeda Link Stage-2 Cold Air Intake System is engineered for **2009-2014 Acura TSX models equipped with the 2.4-liter inline-4 gasoline engine**. This intake system replaces the restrictive factory airbox and tubing with a high-flow performance design that pulls cooler, denser air from the frontal area of the vehicle, resulting in improved combustion efficiency and throttle response paired with performance gains. The included **Pro DRY S synthetic dry filter** requires no oiling and is washable for easy maintenance.

Constructed with mandrel-bent aluminum tubing finished with a clear-coat anodized surface, the TL-1002P improves airflow while adding under-hood style. Its Link design uniquely **converts from true cold air intake to a short ram configuration** when conditions warrant, such as wet weather, enhancing versatility. With dyno-proven gains of up to approximately **+12 HP and +12 lb-ft of torque**, this intake offers a noticeable performance upgrade while maintaining **direct bolt-on installation with no cutting or drilling required**. Many applications are **50-state legal with CARB EO# D-550-16** where applicable, making this a reliable performance upgrade for Acura TSX owners.
