RIVERSIDE, CA - HEMI! That name has gone down in automotive history as one of the highest points of V8 performance engine design. But K&N Engineering has just taken the notorious Hemi to the next level with their all-new Typhoon^® High-Flow Intake System for the 2005 to 2008 Magnum, 2008 to 2015 Dodge Challenger, 2006 to 2015 Dodge Charger and the 2006 to 2015 Chrysler 300C. Extensive testing on the K&N in-house dyno showed more horsepower was available and this high-flow intake kit (# 69-2526TP) provides it! Testing done on a 2011 Dodge Charger with the 5.7 liter V8 engine showed an estimated gain of 11.6 horsepower @ 4854 RPM and 11.5 lb-ft of torque at 4616 RPM. The Typhoon^® System virtually eliminates intake air restriction by replacing the factory air filtration system, creating a clear path for ducting cool air to the engine.

Equipped with an original K&N High Flow Air Filter, made of four layers of high quality cotton gauze, sandwiched between epoxy-coated aluminum wire mesh, and treated with specially formulated oil the Magnum Typhoon Kit won't just improved performance. K&N built their reputation on a balance of performance and engine protective filtration and with 35 years as a leader, K&N is the brand to trust. The filter is washable and reusable, and provides up to 100,000 miles between cleanings, depending on your driving conditions. The Typhoon^® High-Flow Intake Kit is a simple, inexpensive way to add noticeable horsepower and installation is simple, even for the novice performance buff.

As with all K&N Typhoon High-Flow Intake Kits, this kit is covered by their K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty^®. All tubing is mandrel-bent 6063 aluminum in high-quality finishes and comes with stainless steel hardware to long-lasting quality.

RIVERSIDE, CA, -- The leader in High-Flow Air Filters and Intake Kits for decades, K&N Engineering recently put the finishing touches on their Typhoon^® Intake Kit for the 2000 to 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX and WRX STi (PN# 69-8001TWR).

Engineered on K&N's in-house dyno, the newest Typhoon^® kit boasts a number of unique features, including a "grivory" velocity stack for improved airflow, a special insulated shield to protect intake tube from heat (this is in addition to the powdercoated heat shield that keeps hot air from the air filter). Testing showed estimated gains of 12 horsepower at 5050 rpm on a stock (unmodified) 2004 STi.

Like all K&N Typhoon^® Intake Kits, the WRX STi kit is constructed of mandrel-bent 6061, aluminum tubing (2-3/4-inch tubing is used on the STi kit) and includes a CNC-machined, billet mass airflow sensor (MAS) adapter. Unlike other K&N 69-Series Typhoon^® High-Flow Intakes, this system features an STi exclusive, wrinkle red powder-coat finish to match the car's factory intake.

The heart of each Typhoon Intake Kit is a genuine K&N High-Flow Air Filter, made of four layers of high quality cotton gauze, sandwiched between epoxy-coated aluminum wire mesh and treated with a specially-formulated oil to trap and hold dirt and debris. For the WRX STi application the filter is dressed up with a real carbon fiber top from K&N's in-house composites shop. All K&N filters are washable and re-usable with K&N's Recharger^® Kit (sold separately), and are covered by the famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty^®.

RIVERSIDE, CA - It's hard not to stare at the unique styling of the 2003 to 2007 Toyota Scion xB and xA. Their quirky styling turns heads whether parked or in motion. K&N Engineering^® now gives the xA and xB the underhood pep to match thier spunky appearance with new 69-Series Typhoon^® Intake Kits (xB - PN 69-8605TS / xA - 69-8606TB & 69-8606TP). Testing on K&N's Dynojet 248 dynamometer revealed great HP gains at the wheels! Performance results were consistent on multiple cars during repeated dyno runs, making K&N confident enough to offer guaranteed horsepower (something K&N does for all of their intake kits).

The xA and xB Typhoon^® Intake Kits are constructed of 6061-grade aluminum intake tubing and maximize airflow through mandrel bends and use billet mass-airflow sensor adapters that are fully TIG-welded. The tube combines with a famous tapered-round K&N High-Flow Air Filter to make impressive power. Further, the system's flexible coupling is made of multi-ply DuPont^® Nomex^®-reinforced silicone hose that remains resilient under high heat. The hose and filter are secured to the tube by stainless-steel barrel clamps, which apply consistent force and are corrosion-resistant. Washable and reusable, K&N High-Flow Air Filters revolutionized the performance industry decades ago with its cotton-gauze filtration media and epoxy-coated wire-mesh skeleton. These kits feature a velocity-stack base, which smooths and accelerates air into the engine. The filter can be cleaned and re-oiled with a K&N Recharger^® Kit and is backed by the famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty^®.

Truly bolt-on installation makes for easy horsepower. High-quality components create a premium system with features not found in lesser kits. K&N also offers a panel-style OE replacement Filter for Scions, as well as, a complete line of K&N Performance Gold Oil Filters.
