This Performance Cold Air Intake System produces horsepower and torque gains by replacing your vehicle’s restrictive factory air filter and air intake housing. This air intake system was designed, tuned and dyno-tested to fit specific models. Air enters the system through an oversized AEM Dryflow synthetic washable air filter for outstanding air flow, filtration and performance. The air filter is placed into the original air box space and is protected by a heat shield which is designed to reduce intake air temperature and increase horsepower. The air intake tube is constructed from mandrel-bent aluminum featuring a durable gunmetal gray powder coated finish. This air intake system was developed to accommodate the engine’s factory emissions control devices including the breather hose. The tapered cylinder shaped AEM Dryflow air filter is made from an oil-free, synthetic filter media that can be used for up to 100, 000 miles before cleaning is needed (depending on driving conditions). The air intake system is easy to install with commonly available tools and it is backed by AEM's Lifetime Limited . Some AEM air intakes are not legal for sale or use in California and other states adopting California emission standards, while others are 50 state legal.

Easy install just take your time, and you will not be sorry for the little work it takes to make your car sound 100% better. And it looks cool and sounds even better. If your on the fence JUST BUY IT!

Put this in my 21 Volkswagen Jetta definitely a nice snug fit and fits right into where the OEM filter box would be. Comes with all the hardware and simple instructions.Definitely has a nice "Hiss" to it once it gets the air flow through it definitely worth the money.Took me only an hour to install as it was my very first time doing it by myself. Only complaint is I wish it came with another filter. But that's just my nit picking. Still love it.

I ordered for a vw Jetta the website said it was the one for my ride but when I went to install it it didn’t fit then they wanted to charge me a big restocking fee if I returned it I won’t ever spend money with them ever again

Please read my review before listening to the Amazon car fit guide. It IS a very useful fitment guide, it's just not completely up to date. It does indeed fit a 2021 Volkswagen Jetta 1.4t, that is what I have and I confirmed fitment with 3 European car sites before placing my order with Amazon. When you open the box it does say on the white instruction sheet "for 19-21 jetta 1.4t". Now to my honest review...the intake system is very well set up for these cars, the gun metal finish on the intake tube will definitely stand out in your engine bay. It comes with ALL necessary hardware and detailed instructions for the typical D.I.Y. person. You will not be disappointed by this system as it enables your car to breathe much better for a noticeable difference in acceleration. And you will have increased turbo sound. Thank you for your time and I give this kit a very solid 8/10.
