Murray Racing took 2nd Place in the 47th Annual Bud Light SCORE BAJA 500 with a K&N equipped Can-Am Maverick

K&N knows that side by side ATVs, like the Polaris RZR, will be operated in some of the most extreme conditions on earth

Before the Polaris Ranger RZR was introduced in 2008 the side by side ATV market was dominated by the Yamaha Rhino. However, side by sides like the Yamaha Rhino were primarily intended as utility all-terrain vehicles popular with farmers, hunters & outdoorsmen. The introduction of the Polaris Ranger RZR in 2008 spawned an all new market segment and the evolution of the sport side by side ATV has progressed in rapid bursts ever since.

The Side by Side ATV market is one of the hottest & fastest evolving Powersports segments. Nearly every major ATV manufacturer is fighting for a piece of the pie, and they continually try to one-up each other. This has resulted in constantly updated and newly released side by side ATV models. Luckily, K&N Filters is keeping up all this change with air filters for a couple of the hottest sport side by sides on the market; the Can-Am Maverick Turbo & Polaris RZR 900.

K&N performs filtration efficiency testing following the internationally recognized ISO 5011 protocol using ISO coarse test dust reminiscent of the silt beds found in the Mexican Baja peninsula

K&N replacement high-flow air filters, number CM-9715 for Can-Am Maverick models and PL-8715 for Polaris RZR 900 models are designed to fit inside the stock air filter box of the side by side models listed below without any need for modifications. K&N replacement air filters are made with specially woven cotton gauze. Because cotton, by nature, is more breathable than paper, K&N replacement air filters can flow more air than a typical paper air filter. More air can result in increased performance and improved throttle response

With a K&N replacement side by side air filter an increase in airflow does not come at the expense of filtration efficiency and engine protection. K&N engineers placed filtration efficiency and dirt retention at the top of the priority list when developing a replacement air filter for Can-Am Maverick Turbo & Polaris RZR 900 models. Both filters use design elements above and beyond standard on-road replacement air filters. K&N used two extra layers, totaling six, of special tight weave cotton gauze sandwiched between wire mesh. Six layers of tight weave pleated cotton filter media allows these filters to outflow the stock air filter, hold more dirt for long service intervals, and offer excellent filtration efficiency.

K&N performs filtration efficiency testing following the ISO 5011 protocol with ISO coarse test dust to guarantee that our air filters will provide high airflow without sacrificing engine protection. Calling this test dust coarse is almost preposterous, as 22% of the dust is rated at 10 microns or less. To provide perspective, a human blood cell is typically between 6 and 8 microns across. In the real world, dust like this can be found in the notorious silt beds of the Mexican Baja peninsula.

K&N replacement air filter CM-9715 is designed to fit 2015 & 2016 CAN-AM MAVERICK 1000R TURBO X DS and CAN-AM MAVERICK MAX 1000R TURBO X DS models

Besides increased performance, K&N replacement high-flow air filters have the ability to be washed & reused time and again. Many newer model side by side ATVs are equipped with disposable air filters from the factory. With the kind of dusty conditions that side by sides are operated in, the ability to wash and reuse a K&N air filter means that it will pay for itself over time. K&N high-flow oiled cotton gauze air filters can be washed and made like new using one of the K&N Recharger air filter service kits. Larger size Power Kleen K&N air filter cleaner and K&N air filter oil are available for side by side owners who need to service their air filters more often.

K&N replacement air filter CM-9715 is designed to provide increased performance, reusability, and long air filter service intervals without any need for modifications or tuning for the following Can-Am Maverick models:

2016 CAN-AM MAVERICK MAX 1000R TURBO X DS 976
2016 CAN-AM MAVERICK 1000R TURBO X DS 976

The 38-2003R K&N air filter itself is approximately 24 inches high, with a top outside diameter of 10 inches, a bottom outside diameter of 13-1/2 inches, and a 7 inch flange

For decades K&N has been building air filters designed for performance, durability and longevity. K&N air filters have become world renowned for their superior quality and exceptional airflow for increased power. K&N offers a replacement air filter for most cars, trucks, motorcycles, and ATVs, however it wasn’t until recently that K&N began to offer Heavy Duty (HD) Replacement Air Filters for Big Rig, Semi Truck & Bus applications. K&N commercial grade diesel air filters are built tough to withstand commercial use and are backed by a three year/300,000-mile limited warranty.

K&N heavy duty diesel replacement air filter 38-2003R is a reverse flow air filter housed inside a reusable metal canister

K&N HD diesel air filters are built using a “hybrid” synthetic air filter filtration material. This material utilizes filtration techniques employed by both K&N cotton and non-woven synthetic air filters in order to provide exceptional filtration, superior airflow, and superior performance. Unlike conventional K&N reusable filters, a HD reusable air filter does not need air filter oil. This makes them fast and easy to clean. Fast cleaning, and long service intervals coupled with their reusable design makes them a viable way for Big Rig, Semi-Truck & Bus owners or fleets to lower maintenance costs.

The easiest way to find the proper K&N Replacement Heavy Duty Diesel Air Filter for a heavy duty diesel application is by air filter cross reference using the current disposable air filter. While this is a pretty accurate way to find a K&N HD air filter, keep in mind that an air filter cross reference should be for comparison of filters with similar dimensions. This is important because some filters are available in either standard or reverse airflow directions. K&N heavy-duty diesel air filter, number 38-2003R, is a prime example.

K&N Heavy Duty Diesel Air Filters are designed to be reused and when restriction becomes too high, simply wash with K&N degreaser

K&N heavy duty diesel replacement air filter 38-2003R is a reverse flow air filter housed inside a reusable metal canister. The filter itself is approximately 24 inches high, with a top outside diameter of 10 inches, a bottom outside diameter of 13-1/2 inches, and a 7 inch flange. Please call K&N’s customer service department at 1-877-AIR-FILTER for assistance deciding if this is the proper replacement air filter for your application .This air filter serves as an air filter cross reference for the following filters:

A hot rod, or its the over the top reinterpretation known as a Rat Rod, often employ multiple carburetors and open pipes, but air filtration and engine protection shouldn’t be ignored

Over the last few years the traditional Hot Rod Model-T Ford, or the classic 1932 Ford "Deuce Coupe" has found itself displaced in certain crowds by the increasingly popular "Rat Rod". The Rat Rod is a counter-cultural movement to the high-priced custom Rods that have become little more than a rich man's trophy piece. The Rat Rod movement was born out of cars being built according to the owner's abilities, budget, and of course with the intention of actually being driven. The biker, greaser, rockabilly, psychobilly, and punk sub-cultures are often credited with influencing rat rodding.

This doesn't mean, however, that a Rat Rod is little more than a bunch of junk parts thrown together. No, in fact, a Rat Rod is typically an over the top reinterpretation of late 1940's to early 1950's hot rodding style that includes cultural elements of music, clothing, hairstyles, and tattoos. Loud, low, chopped, giant rear tires, multiple carburetors and open pipes should all be part of a well-executed Rat Rod build. As a manufacturer of performance air filters and air cleaner assemblies it always pains K&N Filters to see these cars running multiple carburetors with little to nothing keeping engine damaging debris out of the carbs.

Rat Rodders or even Hot Rodders Looking for an air cleaner assembly with a bit more flair and period-correct aesthetics, should look no further than K&N Nostalgia Air Cleaner assemblies

For Rat Rodders or even Hot Rodders Looking for an air cleaner assembly with a bit more flair and period-correct aesthetics, look no further than K&N Nostalgia Air Cleaner assemblies. These air cleaner assemblies, available in a round open, or louvered bonnet style, fit nearly all early model carburetors with a 2-3/16" or 2-5/8" flange diameter. These assemblies are 4" in diameter and measure 3" from base to the top of the wing nut.

While most wouldn’t intentionally drive their hot rod out in the rain, there could always be the unexpected storm that rolls through and a K&N Drycharger Pre-Filter Wrap can add peace of mind

Both style K&N Nostalgia Air Cleaner assemblies include a high-flow washable K&N air filter, number E-3120, to ensure that performance won't come second to style. While K&N Nostalgia Air Cleaner assemblies and the included high-flow K&N air filter will protect the engine from dust and debris, there is still a chance of exposing the carburetor(s) to water when used in an open engine compartment. Because they aren’t normally used as a daily driver, the chances of getting caught in the rain in a rat rod or hot rod are probably pretty slim.

Most people wouldn’t take their hot rod out in the rain, but there could always be the unexpected rain storm that rolls through on the way to, during, or even home from a car show. So with that in mind K&N offers a Drycharger pre-filter wrap, number E-3120DK, which will work with K&N Nostalgia Air Cleaner assemblies 60-0400 / 60-0403 and 60-0500 / 60-0503. A K&N Drycharger air filter wrap is pre-treated with a proprietary hydrophobic process designed to prevent splashes of water or mud from saturating a K&N air filter. A K&N Drycharger will provide an extra barrier of protection for K&N air filters, yet add minimal airflow restriction.

Depending on conditions, and usage, the water repellent treatment for a K&N Drycharger is good for 1 to 2 years. K&N Drycharger air filter pre-filter wraps are custom made to fit specific K&N air filters for an excellent fit. K&N Drycharger air filter wraps are meant to be run dry and can be cleaned with K&N Power Kleen air filter cleaner. K&N Drycharger pre-filter wraps are available wherever K&N performance filters are sold. Find an authorized K&N dealer nearby using the K&N Dealer Search. Or, buy a K&N Drycharger directly from K&N at KNFilters.com.

K&N high-flow replacement air filter 33-5034 can help to provide better throttle response and quicker acceleration for 2014, 2015, & 2016 Jeep Renegade or Fiat 500X gas & diesel models

The 2014, 2015, & 2016 Jeep Renegade is a subcompact crossover SUV from Jeep. Although it is a Jeep, the Jeep Renegade BU is built in Melfi, Italy alongside the related Fiat 500X. Both vehicles share the Small US Wide 4x4 architecture platform. In a bold move for Jeep, the Renegade is the first Jeep model to be produced exclusively outside of North America. Engine options for 2014-2016 Jeep Renegade models, as well as the 2016 Fiat 500X, are also courtesy of Fiat. In the U.S. market the base engine is the 1.4L MultiAir turbo, with the 2.4L Tigershark Multi-Air engine and nine speed transmission available as an option. Outside of the United States, the 2014, 2015, & 2016 Jeep Renegade can be equipped with a 1.6L I4 E.torQ petrol engine, a 1.6L I4 MultiJet2 turbo diesel, or even a 2.0-litre L4 MultiJet2 turbo diesel under the hood.

While any of these engines provide reasonable performance considering the small size of the Jeep Renegade BU, or the Fiat 500X, a K&N high-flow replacement air filter can help to provide better throttle response and quicker acceleration. A K&N high-flow replacement air filter is different from the factory or standard replacement air filter in that K&N uses cotton gauze filter media woven to exacting specifications. Cotton, by nature, is more breathable than the paper or sometimes foam media used in most automotive air filters.

K&N replacement air filter, number 33-5034, is designed to fit 2014, 2015, & 2016 Jeep Renegade or Fiat 500X models with gas, petrol, or diesel engines without any need for modification

The ability to get more air into an engine with less energy wasted on drawing in air can result in improved performance, quicker acceleration, and better throttle response. Fortunately K&N’s in-house air filter filtration efficiency testing, following the ISO 5011 protocol, ensures that K&N replacement air filters can provide high airflow without sacrificing engine protection. Following this internationally recognized testing protocol, K&N replacement air filter 33-5034 was shown to provide a 98.59% overall filtration efficiency rating.

Besides enhanced performance, a K&N replacement air filter offers years of reusability. The cotton air filter media and sturdy construction of K&N replacement air filters allow them to be washed and reused time and again. Cleaning can be easily performed using a readily available K&N Recharger air filter service kit. Most K&N replacement air filters are designed to install just like the factory air filter and without any need for modifications or fuel management changes. Plus K&N air filters are backed by a 10-year/million mile limited warranty (1.6 million kilometres) and will pay for themselves over time.

VF1012 K&N replacement cabin air filter will provide years of clean air inside the cabin of the Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, Buick Enclave, and discontinued Saturn Outlook

Many late model 7 to 8-passenger SUVs, including the Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, Buick Enclave, and discontinued Saturn Outlook include a disposable air filter to clean the air inside the vehicle

By now many people are aware of the benefits added by installing a K&N high-flow reusable engine air filter. However, an often overlooked fact is that the driver and passengers need clean filtered air too. Many late model 7 to 8-passenger SUVs, including the Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, Buick Enclave, and discontinued Saturn Outlook have been designed with a disposable air filter to clean the air inside the vehicle. K&N has developed a line of replacement reusable cabin air filters, including a direct replacement cabin air filter for these same 2007-2016 General Motors Lambda platform based SUVs.

K&N cabin air filters are designed with a synthetic, electrostatically charged media to help clean and freshen incoming air. The filter media is pleated to provide a large surface area to capture mold, mildew, fungus, spores, bacteria and germs. A K&N cabin air filter is able to do this while also flowing more air for longer periods of time than a typical disposable cabin air filter. K&N cabin air filters are housed in a sturdy molded urethane frame for a precise fit in the factory cabin air filter box.

A dirty or clogged cabin air filter can significantly decrease airflow and cause undue strain on a vehicle’s heating and air conditioning system. With a washable replacement cabin air filter from K&N, owners of 2007-2016 Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, Buick Enclave, & Saturn Outlook models won’t have to replace disposable cabin air filters over and over again. Approximately every 12,000 to 15,000 miles, or about once a year, remove the K&N cabin air filter and service it with a K&N Refresher Kit following the easy step-by-step instructions.

K&N replacement cabin air filters are backed by a 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty so owners can rest assured that their filters will provide years of clean air inside the cabin of the Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, Buick Enclave, and discontinued Saturn Outlook.
