50-state street legal 2005-2014 Toyota Tacoma 4.0L V6 K&N air intake can help get more power from the 236-hp/266 lb-ft Toyota V6 engine |
50-state street legal 2005-2014 Toyota Tacoma 4.0L V6 K&N 57-Series FIPK Performance Air Intake |
The thing that people love most about the 2005-2014 Toyota Tacoma is its rugged simplicity. There's no air conditioned seats with embossed belt buckle upholstery. The step bars don't whirr themselves down to greet you, and there's definitely no 'soft-touch surfaces'. Instead, everything is big, easy to operate, and made from sturdy materials. This allows you to use the 'Taco' like a truck, and not worry about breaking stuff. And that simple-is-better philosophy carries over to the engine bay, where its tough 4.0L V6 doesn't 'wow' you with twin-turbos and lots of horsepower. But it's certainly capable of covering several hundred thousand miles without skipping a beat. 236-hp/266 lb-ft isn't a lot of power though, and it can leave many Tacoma owners wanting for more. Which is where the 50-state street legal K&N 57-9025 FIPK performance air intake comes in.
One of the best ways to increase horsepower and torque, is to make an engine breathe better. When you funnel a high volume of cold air into the cylinders, the engine is able to burn fuel more completely. This 'combustion efficiency' results in more force/horsepower being created every time that the fuel detonates. We dyno-tested a 2012 Toyota Tacoma with a K&N 57-Series FIPK air intake system fitted to its 4.0L V6, and found that it made an estimated additional 8.9 horsepower and 12.7 lb-ft of torque. The K&N FIPK system also sharpens the throttle response, which makes that power increase immediately noticeable. Your individual performance increase may vary, due to things like the mileage, modifications and condition of your exact Tacoma. But you will definitely see a difference in the performance.
To make this power increase possible, the narrow factory intake tube and low-flow OEM paper air filter gets replaced by a shortened, large diameter K&N intake tube that connects directly to the base of the factory air filter box. This direct path allows more air to be delivered to the engine, with less restriction or turbulence. Surrounding the high-flow K&N air filter is an application specific air filter heat shield, which prevents the high-volume conical K&N air filter from collecting the warm air inside the engine bay.
