K&N Air Intake Kit Adds 17+ HP to Tahoe, Avalanche, Suburban, Yukon and Escalade

K&N Engineering, Inc. takes these powerful V8s to the next level with our 63 Series AirCharger Intake, 57-3058. K&N tests have shown a horsepower gain of 17.54 @ 4917 RPM with this K&N Intake Kit.

K&N Engineers were able to get such good horsepower because the original factory airbox and original filter were restrictive. The K&N Intake Tube design along with our K&N Filter with radius adaptor are big reasons why K&N was able to get so much power.

"We repositioned the stock mass air sensor to help with the horsepower gains," said K&N Performance Kit Manager Bert Heck. "57-3058 also comes with a removable lid that goes over the top of the heat shield. We designed it with the lid to keep out heavy debris. We want customers to know that with or without the lid the huge horsepower gain stays the same."

K&N's 63 Series Kit, 57-3058 uses a round tapered chrome top K&N Air Filter (RF-1042) that can fit into the engine compartment using factory holes and mounting points. It takes less than an hour to install this kit and the lifetime K&N Air Filter performs for up to 100,000 miles before service is required depending on driving conditions.

The 57-3058 fits the following vehicles:

“The K&N Engineering Products are great as always,” said Beard. “I change the oil in the Volare several times a year, using the K&N Gold Oil Filters. I wash the K&N Air Cleaner and FIPK (Fuel Injection Performance Kit) elements a couple of times a year and re-oil them. K&N is high-performance and low maintenance, I never have to worry about my K&N Products.”

To get from race to race Duck Tape Racing also uses K&N FIPKs (air intakes) and K&N Performance Oil Filters (HP-3002) on its tow vehicles. “We pick up a lot of power with K&N,” said Beard.

The IHRA racer also plans to participate in the $20,000 Footbrake Race on Thanksgiving Weekend. That will occur at Piedmont Dragway in North Carolina.
