Product Description

The K&N 33-2453 is a high-flow, washable drop-in panel air filter purpose-built for Lexus's 5.0L V8 (2UR-GSE) performance lineup - covering the IS F (2008-2015), GS F (2016-2020), RC F (2015-2024), and IS500 (2022-2024). All four models share the same naturally aspirated V8 and airbox configuration, making this a single confirmed fitment across the entire Lexus high-performance V8 platform. Built with multiple layers of precision-oiled cotton gauze between aluminum wire mesh screens, the 33-2453 delivers significantly more airflow than the restrictive OEM paper filter while maintaining up to 99% filtration efficiency - producing improved throttle response and measurable power gains on an already high-revving 416-472 hp engine.

Installation is a simple drop-in - remove the factory filter and place the K&N directly into the existing airbox with no tools or modifications required. With a service interval of once every 75,000 miles and K&N's 10-Year/Million Mile Warranty, the 33-2453 is the definitive long-term air filter upgrade for every Lexus V8 F-model and IS500 owner.
