Innovative K&N Diesel Air Filter for the 2003 to 2009 Dodge Ram 2500 & 3500 Pickup

A truck powered by a diesel engine can do more useful work per unit of energy consumed than vehicles run by gasoline. It is one of the most efficient internal combustion engines made, supplying power for a wide range of applications.

Wherever there are trucks, you can see diesel technology at work on any given day.
K&N Engineering has released one of the most creative air filter designs on the market for the 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 Dodge Ram 2500 or 3500 pickup 5.9L L6 Diesel.

Each K&N E-0776 air filter is heavy duty, specially designed with 6 layers of cotton in a "basket" like shape for a much larger surface area than the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) replacement filter which is a flat panel type filter.

Along with compression and fuel, air is a basic requirement for diesel engine operation, and large amounts of it! Volumetric efficiency varies with speed and load and the volume of air pumped into diesel engines increases the importance of air filtration, meaning removing dirt and other abrasives from incoming air.

For maximum efficiency, diesel air filter restriction should be less than 25 inches of water vacuum, compared to a gas motor which uses only 10 inches of water restriction. Since diesels work harder at pulling air into the engine this creates a greater opportunity for dirt and silicates to enter the engine. Dirt or silicates in the engine can cause severe damage, including cylinder wall wear.

The K&N E-0776 air filter's design increases air filtration efficiency and service life maximizing the removal of dirt and other abrasives from incoming air while providing a high flow of air to your engine. This unique design makes maximum usage of area in the factory airbox and gets as much air inside the engine as possible, working efficiently in dusty conditions or off road recreational areas, along with daily commuting. The simple drop-in design increases horsepower and acceleration while providing excellent filtration.

The K&N E-0776 is solid and secure, covered by our famous K&N Million-Mile Limited Warranty and should be the last air filter your vehicle will ever need. Use the K&N application search to find one for your vehicle then use the K&N dealer search to find a K&N dealer near you.

K&N Provides Owners of the 2007, 2008 & 2009 Ford Mustang GT with an Option for More HP

One of the most wanted vehicles by consumers in 2005 is listed as the redesigned Ford Mustang GT with retro styling. There are color options, interior options and power options for every buyer.

When it comes to buying a new car, the selling term "options" means a whole lot more than satellite radio and a DVD video with surround sound. K&N Engineering has designed a custom aerodynamically engineered tube that gives the 2007, 2008 and 2009 Mustang GT even more power options.

Each K&N 63-2565 Intake Kit uses a hand designed high density polyethylene (a durable type of plastic) intake tube that is rotationally molded and virtually eliminates air path restriction by replacing the air filter and the entire air path to the engine. This helps the Mustangs natural horsepower. Once installed K&N tests show the estimated horsepower gain: 15.26 HP @ 6000 RPM.

The 2005 and 2006 Ford Mustang GT shows a gain of 15.26 horsepower at 6000 rpm with K&N's performance air intake 57-2565.

K&N Engineering has adapted the hydrocarbon trap designed by Ford into this new intake for applications that utilize it. As the vehicle stops, the hydrocarbon gases that have not burned, along with the fuel that is still inside the intake manifold work back through the engine. By incorporating this honeycomb looking hydrocarbon trap into the intake, these gases are restricted from escaping into the environment as in the factory intake system. Also once this kit is installed, K&N guarantees more horsepower.

It takes 90 minutes or less to install, and can last up to 100,000 miles before service is required, depending on driving conditions. There is also a million mile limited warranty on the K&N 63 Series Intake Kits also known as AirCharger Air Intakes.

The K&N intake kit, installed on the Ford Mustang GT is an aggressive powerful addition to an icon.

K&N Air Intake Kit Provides a Power Boost for the 2003-2004 Toyota 4 Runner

If you own a 2003 or 2004 Toyota 4 Runner with a 4.7L engine you are in luck! K&N recently released a new 77-Series intake system, part number 77-9022KP, for the 2003-2004 Toyota 4 Runner which is guaranteed to provide more horsepower. In fact K&N tests have shown a horsepower gain of 12.77 HP @ 5007 RPM for this intake. You can especially feel this added power and torque when accelerating and when towing a load. This intake, like all other K&N intakes, was engineered specifically to work within the vehicle's computer specifications while maximizing power and allowing air to flow with little restriction. One noticeable design characteristic of this air intake is the reduction in diameter just before the mass air sensor. It would be far easier to use the same diameter throughout but that won't provide the best engineered solution!
