Sep 18, 2008

In the world of pickups, some models are the behemoths of the full size diesel truck world. Buyers in need of serious hauling and muscle can turn to the Dodge Ram 3500 and 2500 series.

K&N's 57-1557 air intake system for 2007, 2008 and 2009 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 along with the 2007, 2008 and 2009 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 diesels

K&N has developed an air intake system (57-1557) for 2007, 2008 and 2009 Dodge Ram 2500 & 3500 pickups with 6.7 liter diesel engines. K&N dynamometer testing shows a 20.63 horsepower gain at 2500 rpm and a 43.35lbft gain of torque @ 2500 rpm. This is more than a 10 percent increase in torque over the original intake for improved towing and passing power.

The 57-1557 features a specially molded intake tube and a K&N lifetime replacement filter (RC-5142). The K&N washable and reusable air filter provides increased surface area and dust capacity. The K&N air filter is made of six layers of cotton gauze sandwiched between two epoxy-coated aluminum wire screens. The nature of the cotton allows high volumes of airflow and exceptional filtration efficiency. With proper care diesel motors typically last much longer than gas motors. This K&N air filter provides outstanding filtration efficiency to ensure you get the protection your diesel motor needs.

Our cold air intake system includes a powder coated steel heat shield which isolates the K&N air filter from engine heat. It has lower restriction than the factory air box which results in additional power and torque when you need it.

The 57-1557 is designed so the mass air sensor will work with factory stock settings. This means there is no need for re-programming to run our air intake system.

Designed to be installed in 90 minutes or less with simple hand tools, our K&N air intake systems are backed by the famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty.

Australian Grand Prix Motorcycle Racer Faced Nightmare in Poland

Sep 17, 2008

One of the number one sports in Poland is the World Speedway Grand Prix. The crowds pack in the stadium like the football fans pack the stands in the United States. “The Polish people are passionate and very vocal about their speedway,” said Roy Stone, racer Jason Crump’s Media Manager. “Bydgoszcz Stadium has an atmosphere like no other speedway.”

The packed to capacity crowd witnessed a night of spectacular speedway action. Local hero Tomasz Gollob swept through the heats and the semi-final unbeaten. In the final he took third place as American Greg Hancock took the honors and defeated everyone for first place.

For Australia’s Jason Crump, the meet turned into a nightmare. He collected nine series points and finished eighth overall. “I came to Poland well prepared and on a mission but it was a disaster for me,” said Crump, who is currently second place overall in the World Championship Chase. “With my competition all performing their best, it blew my chances of winning the World Championship. My hold on second place is also threatened by Greg Hancock and Tomasz Gollob who have climbed the ranks with more series points.”

Two weeks ago Crump was celebrating his win in Latvia. “Now I’m at my lowest point,” he said. “But that’s Speedway Racing, anything can happen. It can be very rewarding one day and abysmal the next. I have put the Polish race behind me and have started preparing for my next challenge in Italy in two weeks.”

Crump, a double World Speedway Grand Prix champion currently has 127 points. Hancock has 120 and Tomasz Gollob has 118 points. Leader Nikki Pedersen of Denmark has 155 points.

Crump uses K&N Filters. “I love K&N products, the K&N Filters are the best in the world,” he said. “I have solely used K&N products and never had a problem. K&N is also the best for dirt track racing. When you are racing for World Championships you need the best equipment available and K&N delivers just that.”

The next round of the World Championship Grand Prix Series will take place at Lonigo in Italy on September 27.

Eco friendly 2008 Kawasaki ZX-10 is Hydrogen Gasoline Hybrid at SEMA 2008

Sep 17, 2008

An eco-friendly green motorcycle designed to reduce its carbon footprint made its debut at the Indianapolis Moto GP in the K&N Filters booth. Derby City Customs makes one-of-a-kind motorcycles. This time, owners Jason and Jeremy Cantwell had a goal to fuel their passion for motorcycles, contribute to the environment and save gas at the same time.

Hydrogen gasoline engine on 2008 Kawasaki ZX-10 reportedly doubles the manufacturers estimated gas mileage

The brothers started with a 2008 Kawasaki ZX-10 and developed a hydrogen-gasoline hybrid. “We get double the manufacturers estimated gas mileage at 170 hp,” said Cantwell. “We had to stretch the swing arm and added a M4 Moto GP exhaust to make room for the canister or hydrogen generator. Simply put, we separated the hydrogen and oxygen molecules from distilled water which propels the hybrid. As a result the gas burns more efficiently and gets better gas mileage as it reduces emissions.” The new Derby City Customs motorcycle main emissions are water, not carbon deposits.

“In a country thirsting for higher mileage vehicles, Derby City Customs has shown once again that innovation can come on two wheels just as easily as four,” said K&N Filters CEO Steve Rogers. “Imagine the decrease in gasoline consumption if more people drove a motorcycle to work. My hat’s off to Jason and Jeremy for doing something imaginative and relevant to a lot of people by reminding them there is another way to travel efficiently and enjoy the ride at the same time.”

The 2008 Kawasaki ZX-10 also has hand-made carbon fiber pieces to reduce its weight. “We also added super light custom Carrozzeria wheels and a blue custom vinyl graphics from Digital EFX in Kentucky,” said Cantwell. “This way there was no paint to damage the environment. It’s a digitally printed vehicle wrap that should hold up for 7 years through the elements.”

It is ready to ride and equipped with K&N air and oil filters. “K&N makes all of our filters for every one of our custom bikes,” said Cantwell. “We put the best on all of our motorcycles and K&N is our filter of choice. The company makes the best air and oil filters on the market.”

The motorcycle is scheduled to be on display at SEMA 2008 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
