K&N Engineering, Inc. developed a Lifetime Replacement Air Filter (E-9281)
for the 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 Alfa Romeo Brera and the 2005 to 2012 Alfa Romero

Air Filter for Alfa Romeo Brera, 159 and Spider
To add performance simply remove the disposable air filter and replace it
with the K&N Filter.
E-9281
has an outside length of 7.441 inches (189 mm) with an outside width of 5.512
inches (140mm).
The high-flow K&N tapered conical air filter is washable and reusable. K&N invented
this concept more than 35 years ago. Unlike disposable filters, K&N Air Filters
use a unique pleated design of oiled cotton fabric that is sandwiched between
two layers of epoxy-coated aluminum screen.
K&N's stock replacement air filters for street vehicles are covered by our
famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty.
A spare K&N Engineering Replacement Air Filter (E-3017)
is now available for K&N Custom Air Filter Assemblies (RK-3918)
(RK-3928)
and (RK-3908).
Air Filter Kawasaki VN2000 Vulcan, Vulcan Classic and LT
E-3017
is included in the Air
Filter Assemblies for the 2004, 2005 and 2006 and 2007 Kawasaki VN2000 Vulcan, the
2006 and 2007 Kawasaki VN2000 Vulcan Classic, the 2006 Kawasaki VN2000 Vulcan limited and
the 2006, 2007 Kawasaki VN2000 Vulcan Classic LT.
"Some customers like to have two K&N Filters," said K&N Application Coordinator
Lisa Watson. "This way there is no reason to ever have your motorcycle out of
commission. When you are cleaning one K&N Filter, just rotate in the other
filter."
The K&N Replacement Filter,
E-3017 is
made to be cleaned at approximately 25,000 miles. K&N Air Filters are washable and
reusable.
"E-3016DK
is also available to protect and extend the life of your K&N Filter," said
Watson. "K&N Drycharger wraps are made to cover your K&N Filter. The Drychargers
allow for optimum air flow and at the same time limit the amount of water that
can reach the K&N Filter."
It is a league of awe inspiring behemoth full sized diesel trucks, ominous smoke
belching 10 thousand pound stock tractors and various classes that compete for
valuable points. The 2006 Lucas Oil Professional Pulling League has wrapped up
and is preparing for a spring 2007 launch.
One of the goals of the Pro Pulling League (PPL) is to elevate the sport of
professional and sportsman truck and tractor pulling to a new level to
accommodate the pulling faithful. The League is a concerted effort by Lucas Oil
Products, K&N Engineering and other business partners.
All
Pro Pulling League Tractor Classes use K&N Filters
Competitors in the PPL must have a functional K&N Air Filter or a K&N
Performance Gold Oil Filter on their vehicle of choice. “K&N makes good high
quality filters,” said Pro Pulling League Director John Lucas. “The way K&N
performs is second to none.”
2006 “Pro Puller of the Year” Jared Nelson drives a 2004 Chevy with a 572 cubic-
inch engine. It is a two-wheel-drive funny truck that weighs 6200 pounds. “I
compete against the toughest guys in the Super Modified Two-Wheel Drive Truck
Class,” said Nelson. “It’s all about balance, and about knowing your dirt and
your track.”
All Pro Pulling League Truck Classes use K&N Filters
The supercharged truck set prepare for months. Competitors are hooked up
to a weight transfer also known as a sled. The box and the pan are the two major
components of the sled. The box is chain driven using the wheels. Inside the
box are multiple lead blocks weighing a ton. “It starts out easy but as we reach
the end of the 300 foot track more weight transfers to the front of the sled,”
said Nelson. “Your tires really dig into the track.”
Nelson uses K&N Performance
Gold Oil Filters. “I don’t have to worry about damage to my engine,” he
said. “The K&N Filters hold up under the harshest conditions, I never have to
worry about metal shavings. K&N Filters deliver all the time. I’ve been using
K&N for almost five years and racing for 10. I wouldn’t use anything else.”
Jared Nelson’s younger brother, Jordan Nelson earned the Lucas Oil/MAPA Dixie
Chopper Division Championship in 2006. Machines in his division use blown
(supercharged) and injected engines with methanol for fuel. The engine power is
transmitted to the ground in a style that leads to towering wheel stands.
Pro Stock Tractors are for the die-hard pulling enthusiast. Engines can be built
to a maximum of 680 cubic inches in displacement and are fed by a combination of
diesel fuel and water injection. Bill Leischner and Joe Eder had the most points
in Super Modified Tractor in 2006.
In tractor pulling the concept is based on who can pull the sled the farthest on
a 300 foot long dirt track. The boundaries consist of two white lines on each
side. If a competitor touches the line, they are disqualified. There is only one
chance to make a pull and that distance is measured. If more than one person
passes 300 feet there is a “Pull Off.”
The Lucas Oil Pro Pulling League sanctioned organization ended the 2006 season
with record points payouts. Selected events from the Champions Tour can be seen
on ESPN2, The Outdoor Channel and the Speed Channel.

Consumers are interested in going green and automakers are in the process of
shifting gears to accommodate the public. Nearly every major car maker at the
2006 Los Angeles Auto Show showed off new models that will reportedly mark the
beginning of the end of the era for gas guzzling vehicles. A lot of attention is
also being paid to environmental and landfill issues.
The LA Auto Show showcased concept cars which were eco-friendly. Many focused on
recyclable materials and entered the “environmental sustainability” design
challenge.

K&N Engineering’s booth for the Auto Show at the Los Angeles Convention
Center was designed like a science fair. The K&N Air Velocity Machine, Oil
Migration Stand and Mass Air Sensor Demo were on
display. At the K&N
booth, employees answered questions and helped the retail market understand and
find K&N products.

K&N Lifetime Replacement Air Filters never need to be replaced. K&N
Lifetime Filters help cars breathe easier with High Flow Technology, giving
vehicles better performance while reducing waste.
K&N is the world leader in filter technology with more than 35 years of air
filtration experience. K&N is the innovator of the unique cotton air filtration
system that has created the World’s Best Air Filter. Cotton is a renewable
resource.
Concept cars are just that, concepts, and many will not be made available to the
general public for years. Fortunately, K&N Filters are available along with the
technology to reduce waste.
The Audi A3 with a 1.6 liter engine is a popular commuter car in Europe. It is
also equipped with a standard 5
speed transmission.
K&N Engineering has developed a 57i Series Air Intake Kit
(57-0620) for the 2003 through 2009 Audi A3 1.6L L4 engine with 102 BHP. This kit is
made to fit this specific application to create bolt-on horsepower right out of
the box, said K&N Filter Project Manager Joost Adriaans. See below for a full list of applications.
Air Intake for some Volkswagen, Skoda, Seat and Audi
The kit contains a molded intake tube that replaces the complete intake
track from the original air box to the throttle body. "An oval shaped K&N Filter
is placed on the open end of the intake tube," said Adriaans. "The filter is
positioned far away from the engine in order to prevent hot air from entering
the Intake System. To achieve maximum horsepower gains, it is necessary to pick
up the coolest air possible. Cool air is denser than warm air."
A silicone hose is included to replace the vent hoses of the stock intake
system.
K&N's 57i Series Induction Kits are easy to assemble with simple hand tools.
"Simply remove the stock air box, install the molded
intake tube with filter and connect the adaptors to the factory breather and
vacuum tubes," said Adriaans.
"K&N also provides a stabilizer with brackets," said K&N Accessories and
International Product Manager Dwayne Richardson. "As the motor torques the
stabilizers flex with the motor to keep the K&N Intake Kit, 57-0620,
in place."
All adaptors are made from high quality materials such as steel, aluminum,
silicone or reinforced nylon to ensure long life.
