The Toyota Tundra is a big part of the so-called commuter pickup market. It's
more agile than other full-size pickups, because it's slightly smaller. Even
though it's longer than most, Tundra drivers can navigate city streets a lot
easier than drivers of really big trucks.
K&N Engineering's
63-9028 AirCharger Intake for the 2005 and 2006 Toyota Tundra
The 2006 model has virtually the same updates as the 2005 Tundra,
including an all-new base V-6 4.0 Liter engine. With the addition of K&N Engineering's new
63-Series Intake Kit (63-9028), 2005 and 2006 Tundra owners can realize an 11
horsepower gain.
The Tundra has extra space under the hood and K&N Engineer's were able to put a
large cone filter and heat shield under the hood. K&N intakes are designed to
dramatically reduce intake restriction as they smooth and straighten air flow.
This allows your pickup's engine to use a larger volume of air than the OEM air
filter assembly. More air means more power and torque when you need it.
The Tundra is not as full-sized as the Nissan Titan or the domestic pickups,
such as the Ford F-150, Dodge Ram, Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, but it's
capable of hauling up to 2025 pounds or towing up to 7100 if it is equipped to
do so. With a K&N Air Charger consumers who are towing heavy loads should
see a performance difference.
Our 63-Series Intakes are designed to be installed with simple hand tolls in
under 90 minutes and include the famous K&N
Million Mile Warranty.
Phil Burkart is preparing for the NHRA O’Reilly Spring Nationals in the city of
Baytown at a venue known as Houston Raceway Park. At the event, drivers named Scelzi, Worsham, Medlen, Johnson, Pedregon and Bazemore will all arrive as major
stars, but it’s Burkart who will enter the race ahead of each and every one of
them in points.

This is his third full season driving the blue Checker, Schuck’s, Kragen
Monte Carlo and Burkart has made a mark for Team Worsham by working hard, striving to
improve and focusing on results.
Team Worsham uses K&N Engineering’s premium Performance Gold Oil Filters on its
vehicles. The thick canister walls on the K&N filter have extra strength and durability which
reduces the risk of damage from loose rocks and debris on the race track.
Last year Burkart entered the season’s third race in Gainesville at the top of
the points list. Twenty-one races and seven months remained in the 2005
season, and Burkart was No. 1 in points. By the time he arrived in Baytown,
Burkart had slipped to 5th in points on his way to an
eventual 12th place finish. This year Burkart is already doing much better than
he did one year ago. He will enter this weekend’s race in the
No. 4 spot in points, with a 5-3 record.
“It’s been a much different beginning to the season, there’s no doubt about
that,” Burkart said. “Last year, we got off to a bit of a crazy start, and
although we didn’t win either of the first two races we won enough rounds to
take over the points lead. This year, we’ve been very consistent and we’ve
gotten round wins we’ve deserved. We’ve beaten John Force and Gary Scelzi, and
we’ve gotten out of the first round at all three races, so that’s all good.”
Last year we learned every season is critical, and the season is full of a lot
of races, Burkart said.
“People like to say the season is a marathon, which is true, but it’s a marathon made up
of 23 races and each race is made up of sprints. So, basically its marathons
made up of a bunch of short sprints, and every one is important,” said Burkart.
“If we do our best each time, we’ll get good results. So far it’s working.”

The Houston track is very similar to Gainesville, in that it’s just about
at sea level, but the air can be more humid then Florida, said Team Worsham
manager Bob Wilber. “The key to Houston is the Friday night run, which can be a
big “home run session” if the conditions are good,” he said. “We don’t’ run at
night in Gainesville, just late afternoon, but on Friday in Houston we run under
the lights and that’s generally when you see the big numbers go up on the board.
Over the years they’ve worked hard to make the Houston track very smooth and
very fast, and we go there with the mindset that it will take great performance
to win.” The forecast for this weekend looks to be good, said Wilber. “We’ll be
there to push the envelope.”
Burkart is not making any predictions when it comes to Baytown weekend.
“I never predict performance because, for one thing, there are too many
variables with these cars. Then, even if you get it all just right, there’s the
variable you have no control over, and that’s the team in the other lane,” he
said. “You can put your best possible lap on the board in this sport, your
career best, and still get beat. All I know is that we are fully capable of
keeping this up all year. We can win races, and I think we will. We can win this
weekend, but we’ll just have to see.”
“As always, we run K&N on our funny cars,” said Wilber. “We wouldn’t dream of
entering a race without K&N filters.”

The Honda Civic hybrid is one of the most fuel-efficient vehicles on the road.
Tailpipe emissions on the Honda Civic are very low and many shoppers choose
hybrids to minimize the impact on the environment. Overall, hybrid sales in the
United States have grown from 9500 in 2000 to over 200,000 in 2005.
K&N's Replacement Air Filter for the 2003, 2004 and 2005 Honda Civic 1.3L
K&N Engineering has designed a new lifetime replacement air filter (33-2338)
for the 2003, 2004, and 2005 Honda Civic 1.3L L4 F/1 Honda Civic. For more than
35 years we've manufactured serious air filters completely unlike traditional
disposable filters.
The K&N high flow air filter is washable, reusable and built to last
for the life of an automotive engine. The filter consists of four sheets
of cotton gauze layered between two sheets of aluminum wire mesh. The media is
then pleated and oiled to enhance its filtering capabilities and overall
performance.
K&N filter's are environmentally friendly and reduce the volume of disposable
air filters that end up in landfills. The federal government is currently
offering tax incentives for Hybrid Electric Vehicle's (HEV's) and other
alternative fuel vehicles.
The Honda Civic Hybrid combines the best features of the internal combustion
engine with an electric motor. HEV's also convert energy normally wasted during
coasting and breaking into electricity, which is stored in a battery until
needed by the electric motor. The electric motor is used to assist the engine
when accelerating or hill climbing and in low-speed driving conditions where
internal combustion engines are lest efficient.
K&N's replacement air filters are designed to increase horsepower and
acceleration while providing excellent filtration. Our stock replacement air
filters for street vehicles are covered by our famous K&N Million-Mile Limited
Warranty and will be the last air filter your vehicle will ever need.
The 2006 racing season is great so far for NHRA Gatornationals Super Stock
winner Peter Biondo. He said he's very happy with his performance in
Gainesville, Florida where he also won 4 rounds in Stock.
Peter Biondo's 2000 Firebird
Biondo drove his 2000 Firebird with a 400 cubic inch Pontiac engine and
his 2005 World Championship winning Camaro at the Gators. “I won World in NHRA
Stock Eliminator in my 1969 Camaro,” said Biondo.
The 34-year-old from Queens, New York uses K&N Engineering products in all his
vehicles. “My favorite is the K&N Performance Gold Oil Filter (HP-5001),”
he said. “The K&N filter is easy to take off and put back on. I’ve never had a
filter stuck with K&N because of the one inch nut on the canister. All I need is
a wrench.”
In 2005, Biondo had a very successful season. With 5 National Event and 5
Divisional Event victories he also shattered the NHRA record with 792 total
points.
“I use K&N oil and air filters on all by cars, including my dragster. I also use
K&N’s Fuel Injection Performance Kits (FIPK),” said Biondo. “One of my tow
vehicles is a Cadillac Escalade and I noticed more power and better gas mileage
on my way to and from races. The K&N products work great by keeping dirt out of
all our engines.”
Peter Biondo's 2005 World Championship Winning Camaro
This year, Biondo plans to put a lot more emphasis on high dollar bracket
races where he will run his 2004 Race Tech dragster. He also plans on attending
10 NHRA national events and a minimum of 5 NHRA divisional events.
“My next race in the dragster is in Memphis, Tennessee,” Biondo said. “The top
prize is $100,000, let’s face it, I have a one-in-250 chance of winning. I’m
going to give it a real try.”

Saab is known for its advanced technology. The car was born from the aircraft
industry and the Swedish auto company goes out of its way to make sure buyers
are aware of those bragging rights.
K&N's Lifetime Replacement Air Filter for 2004 to 2011 Saab 9-3
K&N Engineering has released a new lifetime replacement air filter (33-2337) for the
2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 Saab 9-3 2.0L L4 and the 2006 to 2011 Saab 9-3 2.8L V6. The washable, reusable, high flow flat panel filter was tested on K&N's dyno and the power gain fell in line with what K&N typically sees for replacement filters.
Saab of Santa Ana, California carries K&N products for its Saab customers. "K&N
is one of the few aftermarket parts we carry," said parts manager Scott
Pritchett. "K&N filters are a highly recognizable product that customers want."
Pritchett said many of the mechanics at the dealership have K&N High Flow Air
Intake Kits on their personal vehicles. "K&N makes outstanding products, and K&N
products add value to our product, the Saab," he said.
The K&N filter is custom designed to fit in your existing factory air box.
Simply remove the disposable air filter and replace it with a K&N.
"Our mechanics will install K&N filters for our car customers," said Pritchett.
"We have not received one complaint and we are very happy K&N now has filters
available for our newer cars."
