K&N's Newest Typhoon® Intake Kits Makes The Scion xA and xB Even Hotter

RIVERSIDE, CA - It's hard not to stare at the unique styling of the 2003 to 2007 Toyota Scion xB and xA. Their quirky styling turns heads whether parked or in motion. K&N Engineering® now gives the xA and xB the underhood pep to match thier spunky appearance with new 69-Series Typhoon® Intake Kits (xB - PN 69-8605TS / xA - 69-8606TB & 69-8606TP). Testing on K&N's Dynojet 248 dynamometer revealed great HP gains at the wheels! Performance results were consistent on multiple cars during repeated dyno runs, making K&N confident enough to offer guaranteed horsepower (something K&N does for all of their intake kits).

The xA and xB Typhoon® Intake Kits are constructed of 6061-grade aluminum intake tubing and maximize airflow through mandrel bends and use billet mass-airflow sensor adapters that are fully TIG-welded. The tube combines with a famous tapered-round K&N High-Flow Air Filter to make impressive power. Further, the system's flexible coupling is made of multi-ply DuPont® Nomex®-reinforced silicone hose that remains resilient under high heat. The hose and filter are secured to the tube by stainless-steel barrel clamps, which apply consistent force and are corrosion-resistant. Washable and reusable, K&N High-Flow Air Filters revolutionized the performance industry decades ago with its cotton-gauze filtration media and epoxy-coated wire-mesh skeleton. These kits feature a velocity-stack base, which smooths and accelerates air into the engine. The filter can be cleaned and re-oiled with a K&N Recharger® Kit and is backed by the famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty®.

Truly bolt-on installation makes for easy horsepower. High-quality components create a premium system with features not found in lesser kits. K&N also offers a panel-style OE replacement Filter for Scions, as well as, a complete line of K&N Performance Gold Oil Filters.

77 Series Intake Kit From K&N Offers Guaranteed Horsepower For Silverado And Sierra Duramax

RIVERSIDE, CA - The powerful Duramax engine, found in the 2001 to 2004 diesel Chevy Silverado 2500HD/3500HD and 2001 to 2004 GMC Sierra 2500 HD and 3500, transforms these comfortable and stylish trucks into serious machines for both work and play. You can never have "too much" horsepower and torque though, especially if the performance upgrade you're considering also improves fuel economy and is easy to install.

The 77-Series Intake Kit from K&N Engineering, Inc. is a good example of a win-win power adder for the '01-'04 Chevy Silverado 2500HD/3500HD Duramax and GMC Sierra Duramax. The kit is designed to maximize airflow into the Duramax 6.6L diesel engine for substantial power and mileage gains. The K&N 77-Series Intake Kit (# 77-3034KP) consists of a K&N High-Flow Air Filter, an aerodynamically-designed intake tube and a custom heat shield. The famous washable and reusable K&N air filter can go up to 100,000 miles between cleanings depending on driving environment, and makes disposable paper filters a thing of the past. Once through the filter, the cool, clean air travels through K&N's specially-designed aluminum intake tube to the Duramax engine, where the dense air/fuel charge means greater power and torque for towing, hauling and anything else you can think of.

Covered by the famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty®, the 77-Series Intake Kit is easy to install using simple hand tools and won't void your Silverado or Sierra's warranty. The Duramax diesel is already a great V8, make it perform even better with the 77-Series Intake Kit from K&N.

For more information, please contact K&N Engineering, Inc., P.O. Box 1329, Riverside, CA 92502-1329, (800) 213-4182 for a dealer near you, (800) 858-3333 for technical service/questions, (951) 826-4001 Fax, e-mail [email protected] or visit www.knfilters.com.

K&N 77-Series Intake Kit Muscles Out Estimated 7.2 More Horsepower For Nissan Titan/Armada

RIVERSIDE, CA - In a world of powerful full-size pickups and SUVs Nissan has entered into the game of power and brute torque with their 2004 to 2015 Nissan Titan, Nissan Armada and Infiniti QX56. Unlike the attempts of other manufacturers, producing 7/8-size trucks, Nissan has produced a vehicle as large as a Silverado and as powerful as an F150 while retaining the comfort and ergonomics Nissan has become known for.

K&N Air Intake System 77-6012KP
Air Intake System 77-6012KP
While the Titan and Armada produce an impressive 305 horsepower in stock form, the addition of K&N's 77-Series Intake Kit (# 77-6012KP) produced an estimated increase of 7.2 horsepower at the rear wheels on K&N's in-house Dynojet 248 dynamometer. By eliminating OE intake tract restriction, the K&N 77-Series Intake Kit improves airflow and reduces air turbulence while adding a cool intake tone. The Titan and Armada's custom designed 6063 mandrel bent aluminum intake tube attaches to a K&N High-Flow Air Filter providing increased filtration and cooler air shielded by K&N's powder coated heat shield.

Backed by the famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty each Titan/Armada kit can go 100,000 miles between cleanings and can be unsoiled with the K&N Recharger® Kit (sold separately). Street legal in most states, the 77-Series Intake Kit installs easily with common hand tools in 90 minutes or less.
