If you're looking to give your Chevrolet Malibu a bit of a kick, the AEM Cold Air Intake System is worth considering. This isn't just another aftermarket part; it’s designed specifically for the 2016-2020 Malibu models with the 1.5L 4-cylinder engine. It replaces that restrictive factory air intake setup, allowing your engine to breathe better and, in turn, gain some horsepower and torque.
So, what makes this intake system stand out? For starters, it features an oversized AEM Dryflow synthetic washable air filter. This filter is not only easy to clean—think about 100,000 miles before you need to give it a scrub—but it also improves airflow significantly. Plus, it's tucked away in the original air box area, shielded from heat to keep those intake temperatures down. Less heat means more power, and who doesn’t want that?
The intake tubing is made from mandrel-bent aluminum, finished in a sleek gunmetal gray. It looks good under the hood and is built to last. Installation is straightforward too; you can get it done with some basic tools, which is a bonus if you like to tinker with your ride.
Now, let’s talk numbers. You can expect an estimated gain of about 12 horsepower at 5100 RPM. That’s a noticeable bump that can make your daily drive a bit more exciting. Just keep in mind, this setup is not street legal in California and some other states, so check your local regulations before you dive in.

Whether you are part of a professional race team or just like to push your car to the limit, an AEM intake system is a welcome addition to your vehicle.
What Is an AEM Cold Air Intake System?An AEM cold air intake system is specifically designed to increase the volume of cold air flowing into your engine as you drive. The thinking behind this is that cold air is much denser than warm air. Therefore, if there is more cold air in your engine, there is more air in general, which also means that there is more oxygen. A higher amount of oxygen present in a car engine increases the potency of combustion, which can increase the power and efficiency of your engine.
What Are the Benefits of an AEM Intake System?An AEM intake kit maximizes the amount of power you can get from your engine. This increase in power will also help you conserve fuel and increase your fuel efficiency, saving you money at the gas station. In a sense, an AEM intake system helps your car and engine “breathe†more efficiently, allowing it to reach its full potential.
Why Should I Choose an AEM Intake Kit?AEM is regarded as one of the best aftermarket intake systems on the market, combining quality materials, cutting-edge technology and reliable design to help drivers around the globe improve the power of their engine. All AEM cold air intake systems are engineered to increase your car’s torque and horsepower, and any AEM intake kit comes with a lifetime limited warranty.
