2015-2016 F-150 LX Model V6s with K&N Cold Air Intake Get More Horsepower and Torque

63-2596 air intake system for 2015-2016 Ford F-150

The 63-2596 AirCharger's® non-metallic tube and oversized filter protected by a heat shield deliver massive amounts of cooler air to 2015-2016 F-150 engine intake housings.

America's pickup truck of choice has been the Ford F-Series for more than three decades and the F-150 is practically a dynasty unto itself. In facing and out-pacing the competition, Ford has continued to innovate and the new-for-2015 F-150 platform, styling and aluminum body on a beefier steel chassis – its13th generation and 68th iteration – could be the most unique.

The K&N 63-2596 replacement air intake system installs directly onto existing engine mounting points and requires no special tools.

The big news at its debut was the F-150s significant weight reduction achieved by constructing the cab, hood, and bed from military-grade aluminum which eliminated at least 400 pounds. While generating snarky commentary from opponents about real men not driving a beer can, the undisputed truth of a lighter-weight vehicle is its ability to haul bigger payloads, handle heavier tows, use less fuel, maneuver more easily and even be quicker in competition. Hence, Ford's ability to remain the pickup sales leader in the U.S.

The base F-150 (LX model) is powered by the Cyclone 3.5L Ti-VCT V6 naturally aspirated, electronic fuel-injected engine producing 283hp and 255lb-ft of torque, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Standard is a choice of three cab and bed sizes, 17-in wheels, air conditioning, split front and rear seats, tilt/telescope steering, manual door locks, windows and mirrors, a four- or six-speaker sound system. Towing capacity is rated at 7,600lb. This is all enough to get you started off to work or play in competent comfort and modern pickup truck style.

There are two additional V6 power plants available for the F-150, but if you aren't quite in the market for the high-performance turbocharged 2.7L (325hp and 375lb-ft of torque) or 3.5L (365hp and 420lb-ft) EcoBoost engines, there is a performance enhancer that can help your base 3.5L breathe better and have more energy: the K&N 63-2596 AirCharger® air intake system.

63-2596 air intake system for 2015-2016 Ford F-150

Designed and engineered specifically for the F-150's 3.5L V6, the K&N AirCharger intake is uniquely shaped to fit the machinery to most efficiently accelerate airflow.

How many horsepower and how much more torque? Dynomometer test results for a 2016 F-150 with the 3.5L V6 3.5L produced an estimated 12.27hp increase at 5686rpm and an estimated 9.87 lb-ft of torque increase at 3511rpm.

The 63-2596 is one of K&N's newest air intakes, designed specifically for the 2015-2016 F-150s. It replaces the factory intake with a non-metallic, rotationally molded tube that has been aerodynamically engineered to drive a huge amount of fresh air into the engine intake and accommodate the factory EVAP and crank case vent hoses. It connects to the engine with adapters made of silicon and reinforced nylon.

Severe driving conditions may dictate an extra layer of protection for your 63-2596 system's air filter, and K&N makes this Drycharger silicone-treated polyester wrap to do that pre-filtering duty in your Ford F-150.

Completing the system is K&N's oversized washable, reusable cotton gauze air filter, equipped with a chrome top and protected by a heat shield, that is fitted to the OEM air box space. Its unique engineering and construction allow more air to pass through the filter medium, trapping and holding more dirt, dust, and particles. It is more robust that K&N's other replacement filters, and can last up to 100,000 miles (depending on driving conditions) before cleaning is required. If you want to inspect and service the system more frequently, that's OK too. It is protected by K&N's Million-Mile Warranty, but should you need another filter for some reason, part number RC-5173 is available.

This intake system is relatively easy to install, usually in 90 minutes or less using commonly available tools. When it's time to buy your 63-2596 AirCharger kit, visit knfilters.com and search by vehicle in the air intakes pages. You can also find a K&N dealer near you, using the dealer search tool.

The K&N 63-2596 performance intake kit can be fitted to the following Ford vehicles:
2016 Ford F150 3.5L V6 - Exc. Turbo
2015 Ford F150 3.5L V6 - Exc. Turbo

2014-2016 Toyota Verso, Avensis, Auris, and RAV4 Diesels Get K&N Air Filter

K&N 33-3053 replacement engine air filter for Toyota Verso, Rav4, Avensis and Auris

The K&N 33-3053 replacement engine air filter is designed and constructed to allow more air to flow into the Toyota 1.6L and 2.0L turbodiesel's induction system.

Diesel engines make the world go round, and are gaining popularity as more drivers realize the benefits of these torquey, efficient power plants mated with stylish, efficient, and comfortable passenger and sport vehicles. Liter-per-liter, diesels are more powerful than gasoline engines and are generally more fuel-efficient. Diesels also hold their value longer because there are still fewer of them on the road, especially among luxury cars, and for them, diesel fuel prices are lower than premium gasoline prices.

K&N 33-3053 replacement engine air filter for Toyota Verso, Rav4, Avensis and Auris

Air exits the back of the filter through specially engineered oiled cotton fibers that catch more particles and into the Toyota engine.

Toyota has been successfully contributing to the diesel development effort on all continents with its 1.6L and 2.0L inline 4-cylinder engines in the Verso estate, Auris hatch, Avensis sedan and wagon, and RAV4 IV compact SUV/crossover.

The turbocharged 1.6L D-4D is based to a BMW design, with a dual-mass flywheel, new engine mounts, and revised electrical interfaces which replaced the 2.0L D-4D in the Verso starting in 2014. For the Avensis beginning in 2015, there is the 1.6L D-4D and a 143-hp 2.0L D-4D. The Auris got the 1.6L in 2015 and RAV4 IV got the 2.0L for model year 2014 in Europe.

Most Verso and Avensis models now also include Toyota's Optimal Drive stop-start system to enhance fuel mileage. The RAV4 has an integrated drive system that distributes front-to-rear torque in variable proportions to also improve fuel consumption. These recent engine and drivetrain improvements have resulted in lower emissions, higher fuel economy, and overall longevity.

If you're already a diesel convert, you've invested in longevity and know a turbodiesel depends more heavily on clean air than a gasoline engine. To help with preserve your investment, and even up your engine's horsepower and torque ratings, there is now the K&N 33-3053 replacement engine air filter designed specifically for the current 1.6L and 2.0L.

K&N 33-3053 replacement engine air filter for Toyota Verso, Rav4, Avensis and Auris

Housed in a durable polyethylene frame, the 33-3053 can be washed every 50,000 miles (or less) and reused, keeping disposable filters out of landfills.

The engine air filters in the rectangular air boxes of the 2014-2016 Verso and 2015-2016 Avensis, Auris and RAV4 IV are all the same drop-in design and can be easily serviced with no special tools or techniques required. It is a simple matter to replace the disposable factory filter with K&N's reusable, oiled cotton gauze 33-3053 filter, and you're set for the next 50,000 miles, depending on driving conditions.

The filter is mounted in a sturdy polyethylene frame and its specially made cotton fibers efficiently trap particles and pieces, allowing more air to flow into the induction system. Cleaning and replacing the 33-3053 is straightforward enough that you may wish to service it more often than the 50,000 mile interval. To wash the filter spray it with the Power Kleen cleaner available in K&N's 99-5000 filter care service kit and rinse in clean running water, then allow it to air dry, re-oil with the filter oil, and reinstall.

The 33-3053 will not void factory warranties, is engineered to work with OEM electronics, and is backed by K&N's Million-Mile Limited Warranty: three more reasons to make a reusable engine air filter part of your investment.

To confirm that this filter fits your car, use the K&N's online search by vehicle tool. When you are ready to purchase, locate an authorized K&N dealer anywhere on the planet by using the K&N dealer search.

The K&N 33-3053 replaces the following part numbers:

2002-2011 Mercedes-Benz Vehicles with K&N Air Filter Receive More Air and Better Filtration

Caption

K&N replacement air filters are engineered to meet the demands of supercharged engines, like those found in the Mercedes-Benz SLK200.

Many of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class models from 2002 through 2011, and some E-Class Models from 2002–2006, and the 2007–2011 SLK roadster were powered by the M271 inline four-cylinder gasoline powered engine. The M271 was first introduced in 2002, replacing the existing M111 engine which dated back to 1992.

Manufactured at the Mercedes-Benz plant in Unterturkheim, Germany, the M271 was sold in certain models with an Eaton M45 supercharger, under the Kompressor label, to boost power. Supercharged engines need a robust flow of incoming air to operate at peak efficiency, so a K&N E-2011 replacement air filter is the perfect upgrade.

Supercharging is nothing new to Mercedes. Gottlieb Daimler, one of the two founders of Mercedes parent company Daimler-Benz) received a German patent for supercharging an internal combustion engine back in 1885. The world's first supercharged production cars were 1921 Mercedes 6/25/40 and Mercedes 10/40/65 models. They were distinguished as "Kompressor" models, the origin of the Mercedes-Benz designation that continued on into the 21st century.

In simplest terms, a supercharger is an air pump. It's driven off the crankshaft, typically by a belt. While there's a penalty inherent in a supercharger, drawing power from the engine to drive the "pump", its positive impact on engine efficiency greatly offsets the small loss. But to do so, a supercharger needs a constant flow of incoming air.

The K&N E-2011 replacement filter comes pre-oiled and ready to install right out of the box.

K&N replacements air filters, like the E-2011 are engineered to meet the demands of a supercharged engine. The filters are manufactured using multiple layers of oiled cotton filter media, rather than the inferior paper elements used in many OEM and replacement filters. The oiled cotton construction not only provides for greater air flow into the motor but also features excellent filtration properties to ensure your Mercedes' long engine life. This is well-proven by K&N's in-house International Standards Organization 5011 air filter filtration efficiency testing, which adheres to strict ISO specifications, ensuring that K&N air filters provide high airflow while maintaining engine protection.

Further, the K&N E-2011 replacement air filter is emissions legal in all 50 states legal and will not void your factory warranty.

A K&N replacement air filter is guaranteed for the life of your Mercedes. The only service required is one you can do yourself: at intervals of 50,000 miles (depending on your driving conditions) simply use a K&N 99-5000 air filter cleaning kit to clean and re-oil your air filter. K&N guarantees your filter will perform for up to 10 years or 1,000,000 miles without requiring replacement. For full details visit the K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty web page.

You can order the filter simply by clicking on the part number E-2011 as well as order the air filter cleaning kit 99-5000 at the same time.

The E-2011 fits into the following Mercedes Benz vehicles:

Cody Rahders with his Polaris RZR XP 1000 Experiences the Rigors of the Baja 500

Cody Rahders racing awards

Cody Rahders has earned a considerable amount of hardware for a racer so young.

It's just days before the start of the annual SCORE Baja 500 off-road race in Mexico and Cody Rahders has a problem. A big one. In pre-race testing his brand-new UTV won't run right. At some point during the process of splicing additional electrical connections into the factory wiring harness, a small mistake was made – but with a large outcome, Rahders' UTV isn't running properly.

This is not a situation to which Rahders is accustomed. Driving his modified Polaris RZR XP 1000, Rahders took second place at round seven of the 2015 Lucas Oil Regional (short course) Series and in doing so won his second consecutive Production 1000 title. By winning and defending titles in both the RZR XP and Production 1000 classes, Rahders has earned four titles in three years at the Regionals and seven since he started racing UTVs in 2007. Not just that but he did so while pursuing an engineering degree and working a day job at Fox Shox. Cody definitely lines up on the overachiever side of the gym.

That the team is having issues prior to the Baja 500 shouldn't actually be a complete surprise to anyone who has tracked their progress in the desert. While Rahders has dominated short tracks, starting at a ripe old age of 13, desert racing has been more of a challenge for the team. The website "UTV Driver" rated Cody's odds of winning the Baja 500 at 5:1, adding "the desert hasn't been good to him." When he heard that comment Rahders laughed, and said "it's definitely true" then rolled out a list of maladies and circumstances at previous desert events that have kept him off the podium.

Cody Rahders Polaris RZR XP 1000

While a dominating force on short tracks, Cody Rahders is still working on unlocking the secrets of desert racing.

Take the Mint 400, run earlier this year. Cody had a fever of 102-degrees days before the event, a prescription knocked that down in a day or two, but in the race, his vehicle had overheating problems, melting the wiring headed into the ECU.

For the uninitiated, this year's is the 48th running of the Baja 500, starting and ending in Ensenada, Mexico, on the Baja peninsula. It's the third round of a four-race series which includes various types of classes beyond UTVs such as motorcycles, production-based vehicles, off-road buggies, and the dominating big-bore pickup "trucks." A list of past overall Baja 500 winners reads like a Who's Who of racing, including Indy 500 winner Parnelli Jones, Ivan Stewart, Malcom Smith, and Robby Gordon.

Just days earlier Cody was working his day job, in the desert tuning shocks with UTV heavy-hitters like Johnny Angal and previous Baja 500 winner Wayne Matlock. Part of his responsibilities with Fox is to assist drivers in tuning the shocks on their UTV to maximize performance. Asked whether the experience provides an advantage, Rahders replied that having been through the process with other drivers "means I don't have to guess - it helps shorten the tuning process."

The team packed up for a week in Mexico: testing, qualifying, and the race itself. Cody and co-driver James Hill, a friend he'd been racing against since he was 15, lined up at the start. Then word came back of a horrific accident that claimed the life of an eight-year-old spectator and caused grievous injuries to his mother, both down from Orange County to watch the race. After police cleared the scene racing resumed, and two hours later Cody and James were on the road.

Cody Rahders Polaris RZR XP 1000

Not matter how light or heavy the dust, Cody Rahders relies on K&N Polaros air filters to keep his engine running strong.

As the pair drove through the desert the two-way radio broke free from its bracket only 80 miles into the race. The pair disconnected the radio, knowing it would cut contact with the support trucks paralleling the route, but unaware it would also cut in-cockpit communication, resulting in plenty of silence for 420 miles. But the 115-degree heat during the day was plenty to keep them distracted until night fell. While it cooled off, the pair discovered the light bar the team had fabricated had failed, and that they lost three out of their four headlights. The pair pressed on and were rewarded with a finish, Cody's first in a desert race, though it was ninth out of 10 finishers in his class.

Cody feels he's learned plenty about racing in the desert from his experience in the 500, and is looking forward to racing in the Rosarito Beach Challenge in September, a desert event configured more like a short-course race, which should suit Cody.

His attitude about upcoming races certainly expresses his feelings clearly: "Now it's time to go back and do it fast," the young racer said with confidence.

About the future, Rahders was asked about moving up to another class, to which he replied "if there's an opportunity and support I'd definitely like to try another class."

Cody would like to thank his sponsors, particularly Polaris, Cognito Motorsports, Sparks Racing, Fox Shox, Superchips, Black Rhino Performance, GMZ Race Products, Method Race Wheels, K&N Filters, PAC Racing Springs, RacerX, Race Radios, Streamline Performance, UTVunderground, Twisted Stitch Seats, and Lucas Oil. And his supporters: spotter Nick Novak, mechanics Jon Kelly and Kevin Sullivan, Gina Snew, and of course his mom and dad.

Breathe Fresh Clean Air in Your Toyota Echo & RAV4 and Scion xA, xB, TC

2001 – 2004 Toyota RAV4 Air Filter

K&N’s washable cabin air filters help clean and freshen the air coming into your car's interior.

The job of a cabin air filter is to clean and filter the outside air that enters your car, truck, or SUV through its ventilation system. In comparison, its function is similar to the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning air filter you may have in your house. Just as it’s important to change the air filter in your home’s HVAC system, it’s important that you service your cabin air filter on a regular basis. As the filter does its job and collects dust, debris, and pollen it gets dirtier so that the air entering your ventilation system could become restricted. Without the full flow of air around which the ventilation system was designed, it could cause your air conditioning and heating system to not work as efficiently as it should. Should you own a 2000-2005 Toyota Echo, 2001 – 2004 Toyota RAV4, 2004 – 2006 Scion xA and xB, your car is fitted with a cabin air filter that can be replaced by a K&N VF2009.

As the air filter in your HVAC system is your first line of defense for what you breathe at home, the cabin filter plays the same role in your car. While there are recommended replacement intervals, various factors, like driving in an area with sand or dust in the air, can cause the need for your filter to be changed more frequently. Without changing the filter, you might find that these particulates have collected on your filter and have reduced air flow through your paper air filter. This can lead to the vehicle generating more noise than pushing air through the vents even when you turn up the fan to high. Also persistent bad odors can often be traced to bacteria or mold growing on the filter in cars operated in damp climates.

Your cabin air filter is your first line of defense, so why not replace your OEM filter (typically made from paper) with a high-quality K&N filter. K&N cabin air filters are the first of their kind designed to replace your vehicle's stock cabin air filter with a washable and reusable upgrade that cleans and freshens incoming air. The K&N VF2009 are electrostatically charged to grab and hold dust and other airborne particles. They also help control odors while they help capture most mold, mildew, fungus, spores, and germs.

Made of a unique non-woven synthetic material, the K&N VF2009 cabin air filters is an easy replacement upgrade for your vehicle's HVAC system. Replacing the cabin air filter is a fast swap – it’s as simple as exchanging the old, dirty filter for a new one.

The only maintenance required for a K&N cabin air filter is a service you can do yourself using the 99-6000 cabin filter cleaning kit.  At intervals of about 12 months or 12,000 miles, you can easily renew and re-oil your air filter, which brings it back to virtually new condition and ready to protect your car’s cabin and your passengers. Your K&N cabin air filter has been designed to last for years of use and is guaranteed by K&N’s 10-Year/100,000 Mile Limited Warranty.

To find additional K&N upgrades for cars, trucks, scooters, motorcycles, motorhomes, or almost anything that combusts fuel internally, use the K&N search by vehicle tool. Find an authorized K&N dealer nearby using the K&N dealer search.
