What the Takeda Stage-2 is

An open-element Stage-2 system with smooth-bore clear-coat anodised aluminium tubing to reduce turbulence, paired with a large 360-degree radial-flow Pro DRY S filter. The filter is oil-free and washable — it cleans with soap and water and does not need re-oiling. aFe rates the system at around +9 hp and +8 lb-ft on its own dyno, outflowing the factory intake by roughly 30%. On a naturally aspirated engine, the most noticeable changes are throttle response and a deeper induction note rather than large peak-power figures.

The Takeda Stage-2 is a direct bolt-on. According to aFe, installation takes around 40 minutes with basic hand tools, with no cutting, no drilling and no tune required. All tubing, the filter, couplings and hardware are included. The most fiddly step is routing the intake tube through the engine bay, which is generally done from the front.

Installation by a qualified professional workshop is recommended to ensure correct sealing, clearance and torque. This intake is one of aFe's emissions-certified systems in the United States (CARB E.O. covered); Australian road-compliance and modification rules vary by state, so confirm your local requirements before fitting.

Will the aFe Takeda Stage-2 intake fit my Nissan 370Z?

It suits the Nissan 370Z (Z34) with the 3.7L VQ37VHR V6 across the 2009–2020 range, including Coupe, Roadster, Black Edition and NISMO. The same engine is shared with the Infiniti G37.

Does the intake require a tune?

No. aFe lists the Takeda Stage-2 as a direct bolt-on that does not require a tune.

How much power does it add?

aFe rates the system at around +9 hp and +8 lb-ft on its own dyno, outflowing the factory intake by roughly 30%. On a naturally aspirated V6, throttle response and induction sound are the most noticeable changes.

Does the Pro DRY S filter need oiling?

No. Pro DRY S synthetic media is oil-free and washable — it cleans with soap and water and is not re-oiled.
