aFe 56-10009D is the Takeda Stage-2 open-element intake for the specified 2014–2018 Mazda 3 2.5L application. One Pro DRY S filter fits the open XLPE housing with built-in scoop and top-edge seal. The original MAF transfers to the XLPE tube, while the original PCV connection inserts into the silicone bellows.
The exact manufacturer pages and linked 16-page manual identify Mazda 3 2014–2018 with the 2.5L engine. The existing Grand Touring, s Grand Touring, s Touring and Touring rows are retained unchanged; actual engine verification still applies, particularly to 2017 Touring models with more than one engine offering. Exact selected-part retailer tables support these named rows; their generic aluminum-tube wording conflicts with the exact manufacturer XLPE description and is not used. The R listing’s old 2.0L title is corrected to the exact 2.5L application. No 2.0L, turbo, later generation or additional named trim is approved here.

The exact manual consistently identifies TF-9028D as Pro DRY S; the reversed media labels in the related 2.0L manual are not inherited. One selected filter is included. The filter-flange clamp is illustrated but has no separate service code/count in the BOM. Transfer the two original lower grommets, additional side grommet, two inlet bushings and two scoop screws. The original PCV fitting reconnects to the bellows; no replacement hose or separate elbow is listed. The optional plug has no dedicated illustrated installation step. The exact BOM specifies M4 screws without length; no related-kit length, torque, interval or mounting revision is borrowed. Cleaning supplies are separate.
aFe Power develops application-specific intake, filtration, exhaust, cooling, tuning, suspension, drivetrain, and truck-performance components supported by product testing and documented installation requirements.
One TF-9028D Pro DRY S filter; the alternate media is not a second supplied filter.
Does the D filter require oil?No. The exact manual and current selected-page description specify three-layer oil-free Pro DRY S; Pro 5R is five-layer pre-oiled cotton gauze.
Is this a closed window housing?No. It is an open XLPE Stage-2 housing with a built-in scoop and top seal.
Does a new PCV hose come with the kit?No replacement hose is listed. Reconnect the original PCV fitting into the silicone bellows port.
Which original mounts transfer?Two lower grommets, the additional side grommet, two inlet bushings and the two inlet-scoop screws.
What MAF screws are supplied?Two M4 Torx screws; their length is not stated in the exact BOM. Transfer the original sensor.
Does any Mazda 3 Touring engine qualify?No. Verify the actual 2.5L engine and connections, particularly where a 2017 Touring trim had more than one engine offering.
What torque and recheck interval apply?Neither a numeric torque nor a mileage interval is stated in the exact manual.
Verify aFe 56-10009D. Work on a cool engine and disconnect the negative battery terminal as directed. Remove the engine cover, disconnect and remove the original MAF, and release its harness clip. Loosen the upper-airbox tube clamp, release the two housing clips and remove the upper box. Retain the two inlet-scoop screws. Gently pull the original PCV hose from the intake tube, loosen the throttle-body clamp and remove the original tube and lower housing. Transfer two original lower grommets and the additional side grommet to the new housing, followed by the two inlet bushings. Angle the selected filter down into the open housing, rotate it and push the flange through the opening until it snaps into place. Install the 27-inch top seal. Seat the housing and secure its scoop using the original screws. Fit the bellows at the throttle body and reconnect the original PCV fitting into its top port. Insert the tube into the bellows, rotate it downward into the filter, align and secure the clamps. Install the original MAF using the supplied M4 screws and a T20 driver, reconnect its harness and restore the engine cover. Restore the negative battery connection before operation and check all connections. The exact manual supplies no numeric torque or mileage recheck interval.
The exact linked flow chart shows 280 CFM Pro DRY S, 40% above stock 200 CFM at 7 inches H2O. The current D page advertises 7 hp and 7 lb-ft, but the exact D-linked dyno image actually labels its intake run R-version / Takeda P5R. It therefore does not independently establish dry-media gains. The linked Dynojet image compares an April 4, 2019 factory-intake/factory-exhaust baseline with an October 10, 2019 run labeled R-version / Takeda P5R, still with factory exhaust. Both use third gear and a blade fan, SAE correction and smoothing 5; correction factors are 1.02 baseline and 1.01 intake. At marked 5,168 rpm, 156.90 versus 148.88 hp and 159.48 versus 151.32 lb-ft differ by 8.02 hp and 8.16 lb-ft. Independent maxima 168.18 versus 162.95 hp differ by 5.23 hp; maximum torque 173.06 versus 168.02 lb-ft differs by 5.04 lb-ft. These are R-labeled run comparisons, not a new dry-media certification. The image does not state a vehicle year, fuel or start rpm to infer. Individual results vary; marked and peak comparisons differ. The exact manufacturer pages and manual state this product is not CARB exempt and unavailable for purchase in California or use on California-registered vehicles.
