RIVERSIDE, CA - GM one-upped the light-duty diesel torque wars by introducing the LLY-series Duramax diesel for 2004-2005 Chevy and GMC 2500 and 3500 trucks. The engine's class-leading 605 lb-ft of torque provides serious towing power. Still, there was room for improvement. Enter K&N engineers. The leader in airflow technology, K&N unlocks more rear-wheel HP and extra torque with a new 57-Series Fuel Injection Performance Kit (FIPK^®), Part No. 57-3047, for the LLY Duramax.

Clean air is critical for diesel engine longevity. K&N is able to significantly increase airflow to the engine while improving particulate-trapping capabilities compared to the stock paper filter. This happens through the famous K&N High-Flow Air Filter's aerodynamically engineered pleats. Construction consists of four layers of oil-impregnate cotton-gauze sandwiched between stainless steel screen to capture particles as small as 5 microns. The cotton filter medium traps dirt, and the pleats' pitch and depth accelerate airflow into the engine. Backed by the K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty^®, this filter can be repeatedly washed and re-oiled with a K&N Recharger^® Kit. Service intervals are now as high as 100,000 miles.

After exiting the filter, incoming air travels through a free-flowing polyethylene intake tube that's routed for the least restriction possible. The system's heatshield keeps incoming air as cool as possible.

The LLY Duramax 57-Series FIPK^® is designed for do-it-yourself installation. The bolt-on kit comes complete with all necessary hardware. Existing holes are used, so no drilling is required.

K&N also offers a washable/reusable OE-replacement air filter for the LLY Duramax (PN 33-2135) as well as a premium-quality Performance Gold Oil Filter (PN HP-3003) - highly recommended for keeping oil clean to maximize diesel longevity.

RIVERSIDE, CA - K&N Engineering helps 2004 to 2008 Ford F-150 owners with the 5.4 liter engine unleash extra Triton V-8 power. On the company's Dynojet 248 dyno, the 5.4L 57-Series kit (No. 57-2556) added 15 extra horsepower.

These K&N 57-Series FIPK^® systems make power by eliminating the restrictive OE airbox and intake tract. In their place, K&N substitutes an aerodynamically designed intake tube that maximizes airflow. Each 57-Series air intake also includes a genuine washable-and-reusable K&N High-Flow Air Filter, the innovative design that revolutionized the performance industry in the 1960s. Furthermore, every K&N High-Flow Air Filter is backed by the famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty^®.

As with all other 57-Series FIPKs^®, these Ford F-150 5.4 liter air intake systems are engineered for bolt-on do-it-yourself installation. In 90 minutes or less, the average enthusiast can remove the stock intake tract and add the 57-Series components. These intake kits include all brackets and mounting hardware, stainless steel clamps and reinforced-silicone hose couplings.

RIVERSIDE, CA - Chrysler continues to be on the cutting edge of vehicle design with its new 300 sedan and 2005 to 2010 Dodge Magnum musclewagon. Along the same lines, K&N continues it domination of airflow technology with new 57-Series Fuel Injection Performance Kit (FIPK^®) applications for these new Chrysler creations. Guaranteed to make horsepower, these kits demonstrated significant gains on K&N's Dynojet 248 dynamometer. The 5.7L Hemi system (PN 57-1542) added an average of 21 rear-wheel HP, and the 3.5L V-6 57-Series FIPK^® (PN 57-1543) showed increases of 12 HP. In both, power improved throughout the band. (See the dyno chart at www.knfilters.com.)

The FIPK intake kits include a famous K&N High-Flow Air Filter, the airflow enhancer that revolutionized the performance industry and is backed by the famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty^®. This filter can be repeatedly washed and re-oiled with a K&N Recharger^® kit; service intervals are as much as 100,000 miles depending on driving conditions.

Beginning at the filter, airflow is cleaned and directed. It then travels through an aerodynamically engineered polyethylene intake tube to the engine, where more air equals more power. The system includes a metal shield to isolate incoming air from underhood heat and all necessary hardware for simple installation.

K&N also offers a washable/reusable OE-replacement High Flow Air Filters for the 300/Magnum (PN 33-2295) as well as a premium-quality Performance Gold Oil Filter (PN HP-2004) for these cars.

RIVERSIDE, CA - BMW has stuck with its inline six for its 3-Series for good reason. It's smooth and offers a ton of low-end and mid-range torque. Those opting for the 330 Ci model already have the highest output 3.0L BMW offers. However, it doesn't have to stop there. K&N Filters has a tweak available that unleashes potential power trapped by the O.E. restrictive intake system. K&N's new 57-Series Fuel Injection Performance Kit (FIPK -- PN#57-1001) replaces the factory air box, filter and intake tube. The result is an impressive horsepower and torque increase with no other modifications.

The key to K&N's FIPKs^® are the low-restriction cotton/gauze air filter that provides more air than the stock paper filter. Another boost to performance is the cooler, denser intake charge available by isolating the K&N High-Flow Air Filter from under hood heat. Combine those advantages with a smooth free-flowing intake tube and you have major gains in power and response.

An added benefit of installing a K&N FIPK is that it comes with the famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty^®. The K&N High-Flow Air Filter is washable and can be reused service-after-service. Face the facts; the K&N High-Flow Air Filter is the last filter your car will ever need.

Added perks include a throaty intake sound at full throttle, and improved efficiency at cruise speeds. If you are looking for that added edge, K&N's FIPK offers it!

RIVERSIDE, CA - The Ford SVT F-150 Lightning was recently certified "The World's Fastest Production Pickup Truck" by Guinness World Records^™ as the result of a 147-mph run at Ford's test track. K&N Engineering makes this truck and its F-150 Harley-Davidson^™ SuperCrew sibling even faster and more powerful with two new Fuel Injection Performance Kit (FIPK^®) applications. Kit No. 57-2549 for 2001-2004 trucks increased rear-wheel horsepower on K&N's Dynojet 248 dynamometer 15.6 HP to a peak of 372.1; system 57-2548 raised 1999-2000 Lightning rear-wheel output 14.8 HP to 345.5.

By replacing the poor flowing stock airbox and intact tract K&N Intake Kits feed the 5.4L supercharged engine significantly more air. Each Kit includes a genuine washable and reusable K&N High-Flow Air Filter, which is shielded from underhood heat with a black-powdercoated steel heat shield. K&N is so confident in its engineering that the company offers guaranteed horsepower with this kit.

Because K&N High-Flow Air Filters can be repeatedly cleaned and re-oiled with a K&N recharger kit (available separately), the FIPK^® is an exceptional long-term value, considering both improved horsepower and protection from harmful dirt and debris

The average do-it-yourselfer can complete installation in approximately 90 minutes. The job is purely bolt-on, using existing holes and mounting locations. Overall, this FIPK^® upgrade involves removing the stock airbox, intake tract and mass-air sensor; replacing these parts with corresponding FIPK^® components; and re-attaching/re-installing the factory sensors and vent lines. K&N^® supplies all necessary mounting hardware.

Most K&N FIPK^® Kits are 50-state legal, won't void the factory warranty and are compatible with OE computer and emissions controls. Also, the system's High-Flow Air Filter is backed by the famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty^®. For more information about FIPK^®-improved power and throttle response for the Lightning or Harley-Davidson^™ F-150s, please contact K&N Engineering, Inc., P.O.
