The 4th generation Toyota 4Runner is a very sophisticated piece of engineering.
In 2003, its look went athletic and larger. There is more front and rear
legroom, more headroom and 2 inches more shoulder and hip room. It can easily
fit five passengers.
AirCharger Air Intake for 2003 and 2004 Toyota 4Runner
K&N Engineering, Inc. has made a 63 Series AirCharger Intake Kit (63-9022)
for the 2003 and 2004 Toyota 4Runner 4.7L V8. The K&N Typhoon Kit was specially designed
to fit in the engine of the Toyota. ""We hand build these tubes," said K&N
Performance Kit Technical Development Supervisor Kirk Swanson. "We shape it to
hand form it for our dyno to get the best power." The heat shield on
63-9022 fits easily in
the inner fender well.
K&N dyno test have shown a horsepower gain of 13.53 at 5012 RPM with the
63-9022
Intake Kit. K&N's (63-9022) rotationally molded polyethylene Intake Kit uses a
Round Tapered Universal Chrome Top Air Filter (RC-5100) that can fit into the
engine compartment using factory holes and mounting points. "There is a hole
midway on the tube to accommodate a factory hose," said Swanson.

driving conditions.
William Fletcher won the 4th Annual Northwest National Diesel Drag Championships
at Pacific International Raceway in Seattle Washington for the 3rd time on
September 16th.
William Fletcher's 1995 Dodge Diesel Pick-up
“My 12 valve Cummins 1995 Dodge Diesel pick-up truck is currently the
fastest street legal diesel in the world,” said Fletcher. I use K&N Oil Filter
(HP-4003),
and K&N's FIPK. I had excellent air flow because of the FIPK which allowed my huge diesel turbo to spool freely. This
enabled my engine to perform at its maximum horse power to win the 2006
Nationals.”
Fletcher uses K&N’s 57- Series Fuel Injection Performance Kit
57-1525.
At K&N Engineering,
dynamometer test show a 9.17 horsepower increase @ 2560RPM for the 1995
Dodge Ram 5.9L.
“My best time in 2006 is 9.92 at 139 mph,” said Fletcher. “My record was 10.13
at 137mph in 2005.”
NHRDA Racer William Fletcher's 12 valve Diesel
The NHRDA (National Hot Rod Diesel Association) racer bought his first
diesel as a work truck four years ago. “I wanted to get into racing,” said
Fletcher. “I was intrigued by the power a diesel could hold. I use K&N because
of the outstanding performance the products provide.”

Lynn Cooper, Phil Cooper’s mother, also completed a good year for the team
and finished 5th in class nine. The Cooper Motorsport Team uses K&N’s Custom Air
Filter Kit (56-9188-1)
on its team cars.
“We have used K&N Products for many years,” said Mal Cooper of Cooper
Motorsports. “K&N Filters offer the best filtration for our engines. I foolishly
tried another make of filter and they were nowhere near as good as K&N. When you
have 8 or 10 of these specials racing on a dusty or muddy track it is essential
to stop the dirt from entering the inlet track. K&N has the products that we can
rely on so our very expensive machinery is not damaged.”

Sprint car racer Donny Schatz is experiencing the best season in his 10-year
World of Outlaws career. The Fargo, North Dakota driver and his ParkerStore team
are not content with simply finishing up the 2006 season.
On September 29th and 30th, the National Open, sponsored by Cleveland Brothers
and sanctioned by the World of Outlaws will get underway at Williams Grove
Speedway in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania.
World of Outlaws Points Leader uses K&N Carbon Fiber Airbox
Schatz has won three out of the last six National Opens including two in
succession. If he wins this year, he could become only the third driver in the
race’s 43-year-history to have three consecutive National Opens.
“I feel like I’ve got the best crew out there. My guys work hard to give me a
race car this good,” said Schatz. “Our K&N Engineering Carbon Fiber Airbox helps
us achieve maximum horsepower at every race.”
“This is one of those races that hold a lot of tradition and prestige,” said
Schatz. “We kind of won the thing out of nowhere in 2000 and since then, I’ve
really loved racing at the Grove. We haven’t won there yet this season, and that
was one of our goals for the season.”
ParkerStore Sprint Car
The race is shaping up to be a big showdown between World of Outlaws
points leader Schatz and National Sprint Tour points leader Danny Lasoski.
“The competition is really tough out there and I think I learned how to be good
there from being so bad for so long,” said Schatz. “This is the time of year
when everyone is thinking about next year and trying new things. We’re doing the
same, but we also know this race pays $50,000-to-win.”
In five 2006 starts at the half-mile dirt oval, Schatz has not finished outside
the top five. He said the key to the weekend is getting off on the right foot on
the first night. The Friday night 25-lap feature will pay $5000 to win.
“We have to get locked in Friday night,” said Schatz, who has a total of nine
career wins at Williams Grove Speedway. “The last two years we’ve finished in
the top four on the first night and that really helps set you up for the Open.
You have to qualify well enough to be close to the front and then make it
through your heat race. With the quality of cars getting through the heats can
be pretty tough. Like any big race, you have to have some luck go your way, take
advantage of the breaks when they are there and put yourself in a position to
win with 10 laps to go.”
Schatz and the ParkerStore Team will only have six races remaining in the 2006
WoO season after Williams Grove.

When Mustang drivers corner hard they get a good grip and can really feel what
the car is doing. Performance is what the Mustang GT is all about. It also
sounds good, whether cruising or at full throttle. The GT engine has revised
camshafts, intake manifold runners and larger valves.
Typhoon Air Intake Kit for Ford Mustang GT 4.6L
K&N Engineering has released a new 69-Series Typhoon Air Intake (69-3524TP)
in polished aluminum for the 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001 Ford Mustang GT 4.6L V8. K&N
dynamometer tests show a 6.81 horsepower gain @ 4600 RPM for this intake.
"Kit 69-3524TP is specially designed to work with the Ford Mustang GT 4.6L,"
said K&N Project Technician Nestor Cabrera. "The Kit uses the factory MAF (Mass
Air Flow), an airflow optimized filter adapter and a high flow K&N Air Filter
(RF-1036) with heat shield. The high flow K&N Air Filter helps provide smooth
non-turbulent air flow into the intake tube. It incorporates an airflow
optimized mounting flange. The heat shield isolates the filter from the engine
compartment keeping the air around it cooler."
The vehicle design played a major roll in the development and design of this
intake kit. "Special care was taken to ensure that the Air Intake System (69-3524TP)
followed the vehicles lines and that it did not obstruct or rub against other
parts in the engine compartment," said Cabrera. "There is symmetry between the
intake kit and the engine compartment."
With all K&N 69-Series Typhoon Air Intakes there is a through development
procedure which requires the use of multiple vehicles to ensure a consistent
horsepower and torque gain on every car, said Cabrera. "There is a lot of
testing that K&N Air Intakes go through before they are finalized for production," he
said. "We were able to locate the cars we needed for testing through our car
database on our website."
