AEM Cold Air Intake System for 2009 to 2014 Acura TSX 2.4L
The 2009 to 2014 Acura TSX is an impressive entry-level luxury car built with an abundance of standard features. Many Acura TSX owners boast about its quality interior, sporty handling and attractive vehicle design but also mention the lack of power from the 2.4 liter models. All in all, the 2009 to 2014 Acura TSX, no matter which model you own, is an enjoyable car to drive.
Dyno Test Results for 2010 Acura TSX 2.4L
AEM introduced a cold air intake system designed for the 2010 Acura TSX with the 2.4L engine. Specifically designed to boost power and acceleration, the 21-697C uses a mandrel-bent aluminum intake tube engineered to reduce restriction and intake temperature.
The intake tube is routed through the fender placing the filter behind the
factory fog light on the driver's side. This allows for an influx of cooler
outside air. More than 100 dyno testing runs were made in perfecting
this design.
Dyno-testing on an Acura TSX model with a 2.4L engine demonstrated an increase of 10.2 horsepower at 6600 rpm with the use of AEM's
21-697C cold air intake. AEM
has a link to the dyno test results on the
21-697C
air intake product page.
AEM air intake systems are designed, tuned, and dyno-tested to fit specific cars and trucks. Installation of the 21-697C cold air intake system in the 2009 to 2014 Acura TSX 2.4L could not be easier with AEM's
detailed installation instructions.
AEM's Acura TSX air intake system, is protected by the AEM Air Intake System Warranty Policy. AEM warrants that its air intake systems and Dryflow™ air filters will last for the life of your vehicle.

In the late 1960's, the Chrysler Corporation debuted its iconic Dodge Challenger. The Challenger was appropriately named as it was released to challenge the Chevy Camaro and Ford Mustang in the then new muscle-car class.
Dyno Chart for Dodge Challenger 3.5L V6
Fast-forward to the present day and the Dodge Challenger is in its third generation. The current Challenger model was designed in 2008 as a remake of the original with a twist of vintage styling and modern technology.
AEM has just released a cold air intake for 2009 and 2010 Dodge Challenger
and Charger models with 3.5-liter SOHC V6 engines. AEM parts 21-696P (Polished) and 21-696C (Grey) are two-piece aluminum induction systems that feature a large, molded rubber elbow coupler and massive 7-inch tall DRYFLOW performance cone shaped air filter.
These 3.5-liter V6 engines are relatively underpowered in relation to engines
in other muscle cars. With only 250 horsepower from the factory, AEM engineers looked to not only improve peak power gains with the 21-696P or 21-696C Cold Air Intake but to improve low-to-midrange power production as well.
Cold Air Intake for Dodge Challenger 3.5L V6
During AEM testing a Dodge Challenger realized a 7.36 horsepower improvement at 3800 RPM with the AEM cold air intake installed. Peak horsepower was also improved, going from 174.52 in stock trim to 177.43 horsepower. A substantial addition in torque was also recorded during AEM's testing, with a maximum gain of 10.63 ft/lb at just 3500 RPM with the intake installed.
The 21-696P and 21-696C Cold Air Intake systems come with a large oil-free DRYFLOW performance air filter (21-2147DK). The 21-2147DK has a flange inside diameter of 3.5-inches (89mm) and a height of 7-inches (178mm), allowing the delivery of a plentiful amount of airflow to the 3.5-liter V6 engines of the Dodge Challenger and Charger. The DRYFLOW air filter media creates a filter that is extremely durable, easily cleaned and delivers excellent filtration. For added filtration, AEM offers Filter Wraps that are manufactured from durable micro-screen materials that are pretreated with a proprietary hydrophobic process. AEM filter wraps repel water splashes and extend the filters service life. For the 21-696P and 21-696C air intake systems, AEM Filter Wraps are available as a separate accessory (Part Number: 1-4007).
