Hey everyone!

We're the team at SXTH Element Engineering, and we've been hard at work developing a performance intake system specifically designed for the new turbocharged 2025 Toyota 4Runner. Building on the proven success and positive feedback from our Tacoma intake, our goal is clear: deliver real-world, noticeable power gains, snappier throttle response, and rock-solid durability, whether you're hitting city streets or exploring rugged trails.

Here's what you can expect:
  • Dyno-Proven Power: Gain +14 horsepower and +14 lb-ft of torque at the wheels—verified through rigorous testing.
  • Easy Maintenance: Our innovative tool-free magnetic lid provides quick filter access—no screws, no hassle.
  • Dry High-Flow Filter: No oiling required means zero sensor issues.
  • Optimized Airflow: A larger, thoughtfully designed airbox delivers superior airflow and noticeably quicker turbo response.
  • Built to Last: Constructed from durable, high-quality polymer that can handle serious off-road adventures.
  • Plug-and-Play Performance: No tuning necessary for most trims—though TRD Pro and Trailhunter trims will require a tune

Yeah stoked on this for sure. Need to see some people running it and get their thoughts. Do you have any sound clip differences? Before and afters? @SXTHElement

The 4Runner sounds are identical to the Tacoma. Just look at and Tacoma video and you'll get the same results :)
Here are a few examples!

Hope this helps!
 
Heck yeah. Got one of these going on my 4G. Will be installing it soon. Can't wait! Love that clear cover too. Great idea.
 
Just installed ours, love it.

Major upgrade over stock, offering better airflow through a larger airbox and a high-flow dry filter. It also features a unique QuickSnap magnetic lid that makes filter access tool-free and hassle-free, while still fitting cleanly like OEM. One unexpected bonus: you can now hear subtle blow-off flutter through the intake, noticeable but not overwhelming, sitting at about a 4–5 sound level out of 10 compared to the Trailhunter’s louder snorkel setup.

That looks clean! +14 horsepower outta the box. Is that effected at all by the trail shield?
