Frequently Asked Questions
Will AEM 21-774DS fit my 2014-2015 Infiniti Q50?
This listing is organized for 2014-2015 Infiniti Q50 Base, 2014-2015 Infiniti Q50 Premium, 2014-2015 Infiniti Q50 Sport. Match the engine, trim, emissions equipment, and every fitment note to AEM MPN 21-774DS.
Does AEM intake 21-774DS require an ECU tune?
Many AEM intake systems are designed as bolt-on hardware, but calibration needs depend on the vehicle, airflow-meter strategy, and other modifications. Follow the current AEM instructions for this exact MPN.
Will the factory MAF sensor and emissions equipment remain compatible?
Compatibility is application specific. Confirm the MAF housing, sensor orientation, breather connections, and emissions provisions shown for this exact kit before installation.
What changes should I expect in intake sound and throttle response?
An intake can make induction sound more noticeable and may sharpen response, but the result varies with the engine, calibration, exhaust, and other modifications.
How should I protect the filter from water exposure?
Keep the inlet and filter away from standing water and direct splash. Do not drive through water deep enough to submerge or saturate the filter.
Is the air filter reusable, and does it require oil?
Use the cleaning method specified for the exact filter supplied with this MPN. AEM Dryflow filters are serviced without filter oil; do not assume a different filter media uses the same procedure.
