The 69-4525TS air intake system includes an oversized clamp on style K&N air filter. This air filter is designed with a large surface area allowing for an increased service life. Because of the large size of the RU-4960XD washable and reusable air filter, most drivers can go up to 100,000 miles before cleaning is needed, depending on driving conditions. The high flow air intake tube is a mandrel bent aluminum tube with a silver powder-coated finish. The powder-coated finish is very durable and is also very easy to clean using a slightly damp cloth. The air intake tube has a welded on mass air sensor adapter. The mass air sensor adapter has been engineered so that you can use the stock mass air sensor and stock computer programing without the need for modification or remapping the computer. To assist in keeping the stock tuning, the air intake also includes a venturi insert that is designed to help keep the air flow within the range the computer is programmed to handle.
The 69-4525TS air intake system is very easy to install. Following the detailed installation instructions, on average, this air intake system should take less than 90 minutes to install.
Once this intake is installed, owners can benefit from the estimated gain of 5.1 Horsepower at 6003 RPM and 4.8 feet-pounds of torque at 4531 RPM; giving owners that much sought after bump in performance. The 69-4525TS air intake system has been engineered to fit and work perfectly, with the vehicle's stock computer and mass air sensor.
