2012, 2013 and 2014 Ford Edge 2.0L EcoBoost Gets More Power with K&N Air Intake System
- Jun 3, 2014
If you’re looking for a crossover SUV, Ford is the place to start. They have a model for just about every need. Right in the middle of the pack is the Ford Edge which was completely redesigned in 2011 to rave reviews. The 2012 model year adds the option of Ford’s 2.0 liter EcoBoost engine, boasting the fuel economy of an inline-4 cylinder but with the grunt of a V6. The interior is sophisticated with quality materials and can be equipped with enough high-tech gadgets to keep even the most savvy occupied and entertained for hours. Send all of this down the road with a ride that’s beyond its price tag and it’s easy to see why the Edge is one of the most popular crossover SUVs on the market today. The Edge may seem like the complete package without room or need for more, but there’s always room for more power. Now, owners of the 2012, 2013, and 2014 Ford Edge 2.0 liter EcoBoost can have a guaranteed increase in horsepower with the K&N 77-2586KS performance air intake system.
The 77-2586KS is expert-engineered to very high standards. A high-flow aluminum intake tube replaces the convoluted factory tubing to help smooth, straighten, and streamline airflow into the engine. The tube is finished in a durable silver powder coating so it will look great for miles and miles to come. An oversized air filter is fitted to the inlet of the tube, utilizing K&N’s famous oiled-cotton gauze filter media to help minimize restriction and provide excellent air filtration. The filter is also washable and reusable so it never needs to be replaced, and can go for up to 100,000 miles between cleanings, depending on driving conditions. A heat shield is incorporated into the design to protect air entering the engine from radiant heat under the hood. The air filter is placed in the driver’s front corner of the engine bay near incoming outside air and away from heat of the turbo and exhaust manifold.
The 2.0 liter EcoBoost motor is impressive from the factory, but the 77-2586KS can help it perform even better. On the dyno, the 77-2586KS produced an estimated additional 8.4 horsepower at 5497rpm and 7.3 pound-feet of torque at 4684rpm. Turbo lag is also reduced with the K&N 77-2586KS intake, so your Edge can make more power earlier in the usable rpm range. The 77-2586KS is an easy to install upgrade, and installation can be completed in about 90 minutes or less with basic hand tools. Also, K&N backs this intake system with their industry-leading Million Mile Limited Warranty, so owners have the confidence that their purchase is covered for the life of their Edge, and beyond. Ford did it right with the Edge, leading the way with innovative design and technology, and K&N has been leading the performance air filter market since 1969 with equally reputable design and technology. The 77-2586KS performance air intake system is a prime example of this, and a perfect match for the Ford Edge EcoBoost. Owners of the following Ford Edge models can enjoy added power and torque with the K&N 77-2586KS air intake system: 2014 Ford Edge 2.0L For all K&N Ford Edge air intakes visit the Air Intakes for Ford Edge 2.0L page on KNFilters.com. |
