This cold air intake replaces the factory airbox, resonator box and accordion intake tube on the 2005-2006 Nissan Sentra with the 1.8L QG18DE engine. It uses a mandrel-bent, polished chrome aluminum tube and a performance air filter. The tube gives the air a smoother path to the engine.
The system deletes the sound-deadening resonator box, which gives a deeper intake sound under heavy acceleration. It is engineered to maintain factory air/fuel ratios and does not require tuning.
It installs as a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory airbox. The factory Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor transfers to the new intake. Handle the sensor carefully and seat its O-ring evenly. Disconnecting the negative battery terminal for 15 minutes during installation is recommended so the ECU can relearn the airflow parameters.
