Known for its powerful look and large towing capacity, the Dodge Nitro with 4.0 liter engine is a solid compact crossover SUV. From 0 to 60mph in about 8 seconds, this tough looking SUV offers drivers good towing capability and power. But, the engineers at K&N have recently developed a new intake system designed to take the Nitro's performance go from good to great.
K&N Air Intake System for 2007-2011 Dodge Nitro 4.0L.
The new 57-1556 custom designed intake system offers an easy to install replacement to the restrictive factory air box. This performance air intake is capable of delivering an estimated 8.7 horsepower and 9.14 lb-ft of torque at 5006rpm, making your towing job easier than ever.
The 57-1556 air intake system comes complete with a washable and reusable K&N conical air filter, part number RF-1042. This high quality performance air filter is constructed using multiple layers of oiled cotton gauze to allow higher airflow than a standard disposable paper air filter while it protecting your engine from harmful contaminants. The 57-1556 can be used for up to 100,000 miles before the air filter needs to be serviced depending on driving conditions. Like other K&N air intakes this system is backed with K&N's Million Mile Limited Warranty. The 57-1556 system also includes a powder coated aluminum heat shield to funnel cooler air into the engine for more power and torque.
Owners will be surprised how easy it is to add performance to 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 Dodge Nitro models with 4.0 liter engines. If you don't have one of these models find a K&N part for your vehicle using the K&N application search then use the K&N dealer search to find a K&N dealer in your part of the world.

The 57-7001 air intake system is designed as a perfect fit for the 2007 Porsche GT3 by completely replacing the restrictive factory air box as an easy to install bolt-on upgrade. The 57-7001 system is one of K&N's ultimate performance products and when dyno tested on the GT3 it cranked up the horsepower by an estimated 24 horsepower and 19.25 lb.ft of torque at 6726 rpm.
With this air intake installed, the GT3 is now a road scorching demon from starting line to finish line. The intake even includes a custom heat shielding to prevent warmer engine air from entering the filter. Since 1969 K&N has been boosting performance with high quality air filter technology. Now that technology is available for your GT3 taking your precision-engineered German racecar to a whole new level of performance.
Backed by K&N's world famous Million Mile Limited Warranty, the 57-7001 intake and oversize conical air filter RP-5167 are designed to let your Porsche engine breathe easier. This K&N washable and reusable air filter was engineered with 4 layers of oiled cotton gauze set between two layers of safety wire mesh. This design allows for higher airflow and excellent filtration for the life of the vehicle without ever needing to buy replacement filters over and over again.
For longer service life in dusty conditions the 57-7001 intake is compatible with K&N Drycharger filter wraps. If fact it comes with an RF-1037DK Drycharger wrap in the box. This polyester wrap contains uniform micron sized openings that allow high airflow yet are silicone treated to help repel water that reaches the air filter in rainy conditions.
Whether the 2007 911 GT3 is your track racer or your daily driver the 57-7001 intake from K&N is a perfect choice to help you get the most out of your engine while protecting it from the road ahead.
Clauson, an open-wheel racer backed in part by K&N, ran into a tire barrier midway through the Toyota Pro Celebrity race during the Grand Prix of Long Beach. He didn't complete the entire 10 laps of the race, but he said racing at Long Beach was an opportunity he couldn't pass up.
"It's kind of a no-brainer to get the opportunity to be with super people and the personalities and everybody that's in this group is phenomenal," Clauson said. "To get the opportunity to be a part of it and to spend some time with these people has been amazing. You learn a lot about how to be successful in life when you're around successful people. It's been a lot of fun and we definitely had a great time."
Bryan will make his first trip to the Indianapolis 500 in May.
Clauson was one of four pro drivers in a field of celebrity entrants that included Adrien Brody, Adam Carolla, Kim Coates and Brody Jenner. The pros had to start 30 seconds behind the celebrity drivers around the 11-turn street course. Carolla won the race. Clauson crashed near the end. The 22 year-old USAC driver said the group of drivers for the pro celebrity race had a lot of chemistry.
"I can't say there is anybody in the room that I didn't connect with," Clauson said. "Some guys, Cain Velasquez, Jim Jonsin, I was probably a little closer with. The guy I kind of buddied up to the first day was Brody Jenner; there are few guys that we kind of have our little pack there. Everybody gets along really well. It's been a lot of fun. We've not only been able to hang out in training, but go out afterward and hang out and become friends."
Part of winning the 2011 USAC National championship included a scholarship to put toward the Izod IndyCar Series and the Indianapolis 500. He won the USAC National championship in 2010 and used the scholarship he won that year to enter some Firestone Indy Lights races. He had the option of using the 2011 scholarship money in the Indy Lights Series or toward an entry in the Indy 500.
"At the time, there were only three Indy Lights ovals, and doing that again wasn't going to be that beneficial," Clauson said. "We were faced with two options, running the road course side of things or put it toward something on the Indy 500 side. The tough part with the scholarship programs is they're one-year deals. Money's not there again next year unless you win. Learning the road courses would have been great, but at the end of the day, if I won every road course I was in, I would still be facing trying to find funding to break into the IndyCar Series."
Clauson said he plans on racing in the USAC Midget, Sprint and Silver Crown series in addition to racing at Indianapolis. Because of the Indianapolis 500, he won't be able to race a full USAC schedule. His team uses K&N filters and products on its USAC Midget and Sprint car teams. "This opportunity with the 500 is a great opportunity," Clauson said. "There are always jobs that come around in May, so that's kind of the thought behind it. We feel like we got a pretty good handle on things. Hopefully in a few weeks here, we'll have things firmed up and be able to focus on the race itself."
Even though his day ended early in Long Beach, he said before the race that it would have been quite an accomplishment to win a race during the Grand Prix of Long Beach. "Probably behind Indy, it's the second-biggest race on the Indy car schedule," Clauson said. "There's a lot of history here. You walk through the pit area and everybody talks about wanting to win the Long Beach Grand Prix right after Indianapolis. It's definitely a race that carries a lot of clout. To be part of it in the Toyota Pro Celebrity race is a great opportunity."
Derek Thorn and Dylan Kwasniewski racing nose-to-tail.
The NASCAR K&N Pro Series West made its first visit to Havasu 95 Speedway in Arizona and plenty of new faces came to the forefront.
Derek Thorn, a driver from Bakersfield, won his first K&N Pro Series West race, leading the last 42 laps in the Toyota/NAPA Auto Parts 150 presented by Gene Price Motorsports.
Thorn won the pole, another K&N Pro Series West first, and led a race-high 141 laps.
"I've got to pay a tribute to the Sunrise Ford team, (car owner) Bob Bruncati and (crew chief) Bill Sedgwick and all the guys at the shop," Thorn said. "It was really hard coming here to this track, because no one had raced here. It's hard to take something from practice and prepare yourself for a 150-lap race, because at 125 laps the car is doing something completely different than it was at Lap 50. It was a lot of guess-work, but the guys did an awesome job of putting an awesome car underneath me. I'm so thankful to be here and get this victory in the K&N Pro Series."
David Mayhew, the leader in the K&N Pro Series West standings after two races, was second. He passed Dylan Kwasniewski on the final laps to move into the runner-up spot, but was not able to chase down Thorn. "He drove a good race, made no mistakes and it was fun," Mayhew said, who started the race from the seventh spot. "To come out of here with a second after how it was looking is real promising for everybody."
Thorn won the pole, another K&N Pro Series West first, and led a race-high 141 laps.
Kwasniewski, a driver for Gene Price Motorsports, led nine laps, but fell back to third when the checkered flag dropped. "Derek did a great job of holding me off," Kwasniewski said. "I was trying as hard as I could. Believe me I was definitely trying."
A number of drivers were making their K&N Pro Series West debuts at Havasu 95 Speedway and turned in top-10 performances. Rookie Cameron Hayley was sixth. Austin Dyne, making his first K&N Pro Series West start, was seventh. Ryan Partridge, another driver making his West Series debut, was ninth. Braeden Havens, in his second K&N Pro Series West start, was eighth. Greg Pursley, the reigning K&N Pro Series West champion, was 10th.
The next K&N Pro Series race is the Utah Grand Prix at Miller Motorsports Park on April 28. The West Series teams have visited Phoenix International Raceway, a 1-mile oval, and Havasu 95 Speedway, a quarter-mile oval. Miller Motorsports Park is one of three road courses on the West Series schedule. "We'll get through the road course next week and that will show who's got the real package going from a big track to a short track to a road course," Mayhew said. "We're definitely going for it."
The Toyota/NAPA Auto Parts 150 presented by Gene Price Motorsports will be broadcast on Speed on May 10 at noon PDT.
