is 4.125 inches (105 mm) tall, has
a length of 18.813 inches (478 mm), and a width of 13.75 inches (349 mm).
Made with a carbon fiber construction, this ultra light K&N sprint car style air box is designed to increase horsepower while providing excellent engine
protection. K&N’s sprint car style air boxes feature a washable reusable oiled cotton filter media and features a one-year limited warranty.
K&N sprint car air boxes are hand made in the United States using the same air
filter technology that K&N has employed since 1969.

from restriction. This results in increased power.

as steel, aluminum, silicone or reinforced nylon for longevity. K&N air induction kits are easy to assemble, usually in 90 minutes or less and come with the famous K&N Million Mile Warranty.

“I visit people involved in the off-road industry, from the BLM (Bureau of Land Management) to the U.S Forest Service,” he said. “I even drive my Ford F-150 to Sacramento and park it outside Governor Schwarzenegger’s office. It gets a lot of attention there.”
Wiley and other ORBA team members monitor and participate in Forest Service and BLM planning processes. ORBA also monitors OHV legislation and works with the EPA and California Air Resources Board on emission issues.
Wiley has a K&N air intake system on his Ford F-150. “I save money on gas with K&N,” he said. “I also like the fact that the K&N air filter is washable and reusable and is guaranteed for a million miles.”
ORBA’s executive director travels about 75,000 miles annually. “I go to Washington D.C. and other state capitals to deal with legislative issues,” said Wiley. “Spring is a really busy time for us. That’s when I drive 2,000 to 3,000 miles a week. By the way off-road recreation is not only our business, it is our passion.”
