More Power for 2014-2017 Hyundai Elantra, Coupe, & GT 1.8L / 2.0L with K&N Air Intake
- Jul 8, 2015
The 2014-2017 Hyundai Elantra is available in various trims, body configurations, and even has an optional 2.0L performance oriented engine. The Korean built Hyundai Elantra is positioned to take on long time class leaders such as the Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, and Ford Focus by offering more bang for the buck. Hyundai Elantra 2.0-liter Sport or GT powered models don’t come close to the power output of the Honda Civic Si, or Ford Focus ST, however a bolt on performance upgrade, like a K&N air intake, can help bridge that gap. 2014 to 2016 Hyundai Elantra, Elantra Sport, Elantra Coupe, or Elantra GT Hatchback owners who opted for the EPA estimated 38 highway MPG 1.8L inline four, or the 173 horsepower 2.0L engine found in Sport and GT trims can increase horsepower and torque for better acceleration, as well as a sportier engine sound, with a K&N performance air intake system.
K&N performance air intake systems replace restrictive factory induction parts, such as the enclosed air box, accordion hosing, and sound baffling devices, with a freer flowing design for superior airflow and superior performance. The K&N performance air intake system for 2014-2017 Hyundai Elantra, Elantra Sport, Elantra Coupe, or Elantra GT Hatchback models with a 1.8L or 2.0L engine utilizes a mandrel-bent aluminum air intake tube, finished in silver powder coating, coupled to a K&N reusable high-flow air filter, and protected by an application specific air filter heat shield to improve upon the factory design. Additionally, the 2014-2017 Hyundai Elantra air intake system incorporates the factory fresh air inlet near the front of the car to give this K&N short ram intake a similar advantage normally offered by a complete CAI system.
K&N Typhoon air intake system, 69-5315TS, is able to free up horsepower by reducing restriction, straightening, and maximizing available airflow. As part of K&N’s horsepower guarantee, K&N will not build an air intake system unless it is proven to increase performance. When dyno tested on a base 2015 Hyundai Elantra 1.8L, K&N air intake 69-5315TS was shown to provide an estimated 5.16 more horsepower and 3.91 lb-ft of torque to the front wheels of an otherwise stock Elantra sedan. Similar results can be expected when installed on the larger and more powerful 2.0-liter engine found in Elantra Sport and Elantra GT models. K&N air intake systems are designed as an easy bolt-on performance upgrade and can typically be installed with basic tools in about 90 minutes or less. K&N backs it’s washable and reusable high-flow air filters and performance air intake systems with a 10-year/million mile limited warranty. K&N Typhoon air intake 69-5315TS is guaranteed to provide an increase in performance and long lasting quality construction for years to come when installed on the following Hyundai Elantra models:
