Our take on the AEM INDUCTION Cold Air Intake System AEM-21-858C

The AEM 21-858C is a cold air intake kit for the 2019-2024 Kia Forte and the 2020 Hyundai Elantra. It replaces the stock airbox with a mandrel-bent aluminum tube in a gray powder coat and an AEM Dryflow synthetic filter that is cleaned and reused instead of replaced. The Dryflow filter needs no oiling, which keeps the mass airflow sensor clean and makes servicing simple. Against rivals, it is a modest bolt-on: it changes intake sound and engine bay looks more than it adds power, and it is not a tune.
