Improve airflow, increase performance, and enhance the driving experience of your Jeep Wrangler JL or Jeep Gladiator 3.6L V6 with the K&N NextGen Aluminum Cold Air Intake System. Designed specifically for Jeep models equipped with the 3.6L V6 engine, this performance intake system delivers dyno-proven gains of up to 12.5 horsepower and 13.3 lb-ft of torque while maintaining your vehicle’s factory engine calibration with no ECU tune required.

The K&N NextGen Aluminum Cold Air Intake features a rigid American 6063 aluminum intake tube that increases airflow volume by up to 47% compared to the factory intake system. The lightweight aluminum construction improves airflow efficiency, reduces intake restriction, and allows the engine to produce a sharper, more aggressive induction sound during acceleration without unwanted drone at cruising speeds.

This intake system is equipped with K&N’s washable and reusable High-Flow LIFETIME Air Filter™ featuring premium oiled cotton gauze filter media. The oversized conical filter design provides increased surface area and a radius-entry design engineered to maximize airflow and improve filtration performance. Under normal highway driving conditions, the filter can provide service intervals of up to 100,000 miles before cleaning is required.

The custom-designed NextGen hybrid airbox features a semi-enclosed design that helps reduce intake air temperatures by shielding the filter from excessive engine bay heat. The enlarged fresh air inlet improves airflow while providing additional protection against dirt, debris, and contaminants.

The intake tubes are crafted from American 6063 aluminum and finished in Texas with a durable gunmetal gray powder-coated finish, providing a premium under-hood appearance while delivering excellent durability. The rigid aluminum design enhances natural airflow resonance, creating a race-inspired induction sound while maintaining comfortable daily drivability.

Installation is simplified with reduced mounting hardware, Quick-Lock™ technology, and a sealing bead design that secures the filter using only one hose clamp. The complete system can typically be installed in less than 60 minutes.

K&N NextGen intakes are backed by a No-Hassle Lifetime Limited Warranty and are engineered to preserve your factory warranty. Proudly designed in the USA with dedicated customer support, this intake system provides improved airflow, enhanced performance, and a premium appearance for your Jeep Wrangler JL or Gladiator.
