Product Description

The K&N 77-6018KC is a 77 Series High-Flow Performance cold air intake system engineered for the 2022-2025 Nissan Frontier equipped with the 3.8L V6 engine. Dyno-tested to deliver gains up to 10.19 horsepower at 5,388 RPM and 10 lb-ft of torque, this intake replaces the restrictive factory air box and intake tube with a mandrel-bent aluminum tube finished in gunmetal gray and an oversized K&N conical air filter featuring four layers of oiled cotton gauze media. A custom-fit heat shield isolates the intake from engine bay heat, capturing cooler, denser air from behind the front grille for maximum oxygen density and combustion efficiency.

The high-flow filter is washable and reusable, requiring cleaning only every 100,000 miles under normal highway driving conditions, eliminating the cost and waste of disposable paper filters. The system improves throttle response, acceleration, and towing performance while producing a deeper engine note under load that returns to quiet at cruising speed. Installation is bolt-on with simple hand tools in approximately 60 minutes -- no cutting, drilling, or ECU modification required. This intake does not have a CARB EO number and is not legal for sale or use in California on pollution-controlled vehicles. Backed by K&N's No-Hassle Lifetime Limited Warranty and guaranteed not to void the vehicle manufacturer warranty. Made in the USA.
