Volant Performance PowerCore Closed Box Air Intake System (2016-2022 Toyota Tacoma 3.5L V6) (186356)
Maximize power output, improve throttle response, and provide ultimate filtration protection for your truck with the Volant Performance PowerCore Closed Box Air Intake System (186356). Engineered specifically for 2016-2022 Toyota Tacoma models equipped with the 3.5L V6 engine, this premium cold air intake replaces the restrictive OEM air box, intake ducting, and power-robbing resonator assembly with a high-flow, thermally insulated intake tract built for rugged environments.
At the center of this system is Volant's heavy-duty cross-linked polyethylene closed air box enclosure, which isolates incoming air from engine bay heat soak while gathering a larger volume of cold ambient air. Paired with Donaldson PowerCore dry filtration technology, the maintenance-free air filter utilizes synthetic structural media to trap fine dust particles down to sub-micron levels with up to 99.96% filtration efficiency without restricting airflow. Compatible with a range of PowerCore replacement filters and hydrophobic pre-filters to guard against water splashes, mud, and sand during extreme off-road driving. Direct bolt-on installation using OEM mounting locations.
