The sixth generation 2015 Ford Mustang is wider, lower, faster, and more efficient than the Mustang it replaces plus it will be available globally in left or right hand drive

The 2015 Ford Mustang broke from decades of tradition in more ways than one. All sixth generation Ford Mustang models feature a fully independent rear suspension. Traditionally, the Ford Mustang has always had a solid live axle rear suspension, save for the special edition 1999-2004 Mustang Cobras. This new independent rear suspension brings Mustang handling, and road manners, up to par with far more expensive cars. Also, for the first time in nearly thirty years, Ford is offering a turbocharged inline-four cylinder engine in the Mustang.

Contrary to most auto makers’ engine line ups, due to an increase in horsepower, torque, and fuel economy, the Ford 2.3L EcoBoost four cylinder engine is an upgrade over the standard 300 horsepower V6. Luckily the traditional V8 powered Ford Mustang still remains and it boasts an incredible 435 peak horsepower for 2015. Yet, the biggest break from Ford Mustang tradition is the fact that the sixth generation car has been designed with a global platform intended for world-wide export as left or right hand drive.

Owners of 2015-2017 Ford Mustangs need not worry that an increase in airflow with a K&N replacement air filter comes at the expense of filtration efficiency and engine protection

Owners of 2015-2017 Ford Mustang models, whether powered by the standard 3.7L V6, Powerful 5.0 V8 or the surprisingly powerful and efficient Ford EcoBoost 2.3L engine can now equip their modern muscle car with the superior filtration and superior performance offered by every K&N washable and reusable cotton gauze air filter. The K&N 2015-2017 Ford Mustang replacement air filter is designed to fit into the stock air filter box of 2.3L EcoBoost, 3.7L V6, and 5.0L V8 models without any need for modifications.

K&N replacement air filters are made with K&N’s specially woven cotton gauze filter media. Because cotton, by nature, is more breathable than the paper found in typical automotive air filters, a K&N replacement air filter can provide an increase in airflow. More air and less restriction for performance engineered 2015-2017 Ford Mustang engines can result in a boost in power and better acceleration.

2015-2017 Ford Mustangs with the standard 3.7L V6, powerful 5.0 V8 GT, or the high-tech Ford EcoBoost 2.3L can be equipped with the filtration and performance expected from K&N

Owners of 2015-2017 Ford Mustang models need not worry that an increase in airflow with a K&N replacement air filter comes at the expense of filtration efficiency and engine protection. K&N engineers place filtration efficiency and dirt retention as a priority when developing a replacement air filter.

K&N performs filtration efficiency testing following the internationally recognized ISO 5011 protocol with ISO coarse test dust to ensure that our air filters will provide high airflow without sacrificing engine protection. The K&N 2015-2017 Ford Mustang air filter 33-5029 was shown to be more than 99% efficient overall when using the ISO 5011 test procedure. As a proof of K&N’s confidence in this replacement air filter the test results have been made available for viewing.

Another benefit of using a cotton gauze air filter media in K&N replacement air filters is that they are also a washable and reusable air filter. The fact that a K&N air filter can be washed and reused means that it will pay for itself over time. The K&N air filter for 2015-2017 Ford Mustang V6, EcoBoost, or 5.0L V8 GT models can be washed and made like new using one of the K&N Recharger air filter service kits. A K&N Recharger air filter cleaning kit contains a specially formulated degreaser and K&N air filter oil necessary to restore air flow efficiency and bring your K&N oiled cotton air filter performance to like new condition.

The K&N reusable air filter for 2014-2016 Mini Cooper 1.5L, Mini Cooper S 2.0L, and BMW Active Tourer models is designed to increase airflow and reduce restriction over stock

The Mini has a long and influential production history dating back to 1959. John Cooper, owner of the Cooper Car Company and builder of race cars, saw the potential to create a performance car out of the Mini and after appealing to British Motor Corporation (BMC) management the Mini Cooper and Mini Cooper S were born in 1961. These days the Mini marque is owned by German auto manufacturer BMW and the Mini Cooper shares a platform with the BMW Active Tourer series.

K&N engineers place filtration efficiency and dirt retention as a priority when developing a replacement air filter and part number 33-3025 was shown to be 98.35% efficient overall

As part of a global movement to reduce environmental impact the third generation F56 Mini Cooper, Mini Cooper S, and the BMW Active Tourer series have adopted twin scroll turbocharged, direct injection engines for a combination of power and fuel efficiency. The standard engine for the Mini Cooper Hardtop is a 1.5-liter three-cylinder TwinPower engine which makes considerably more horsepower and torque than the outgoing second generation 2013 R56 Mini Cooper Hardtop. The 2014 Mini Cooper Hardtop, equipped with a smaller engine, is said to accelerate from 0-60 mph 2.3 seconds faster than the 2013 model. It goes without saying that the 2.0-liter TwinPower turbo engine used in the Mini Cooper S makes more power, and accelerates even quicker than the base model.

Owners of 2014, 2015 and 2016 Mini Cooper 1.5L, and 2.0-liter Mini Cooper S models can now equip these surprisingly powerful TwinPower engines with a replacement air filter, K&N 33-3025. This reusable air filter is designed to fit into the stock air filter box of 2014-2016 Mini Cooper 1.5L, Mini Cooper S 2.0L, and BMW Active Tourer models without any need for modifications. K&N replacement air filters are made with specially woven cotton gauze. Cotton, by nature, is more breathable than paper, a K&N replacement air filter can flow more air than a typical paper automotive air filter. More air and less restriction for such a highly tuned engine can result in a boost in performance and better acceleration.

Perhaps more exciting than an increase in performance from installing a K&N replacement air filter is the fact that they are also a washable and reusable air filter. The ability to wash and reuse a K&N air filter means that it will pay for itself over time. The K&N washable air filter 33-3025 for 2014-2016 Mini Cooper 1.5L, Mini Cooper S 2.0L, and BMW Active Tourer models with a 1.5L, 2.0L turbo, or 2.0L diesel engine can be washed and made like new using one of the K&N Recharger air filter service kits.

It would be false to assume that an increase in airflow with a K&N high-flow air filter comes at the expense of filtration efficiency and engine protection. K&N engineers place filtration efficiency and dirt retention as a priority when developing a replacement air filter. K&N performs filtration efficiency testing following the internationally recognized ISO 5011 protocol with ISO coarse test dust to ensure that our air filters will provide high airflow without sacrificing engine protection. When tested according to the ISO 5011 protocol, K&N replacement air filter 33-3025 was shown to have a 98.35% overall efficiency rating.

The replacement K&N reusable air filter for 2014-2016 Mini Cooper 1.5L, Mini Cooper S 2.0L, and BMW Active Tourer models with a 1.5L, 2.0L turbo, or 2.0L diesel engine is manufactured in the United States and backed by the K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty.

The top triple clamps were modified with mounts to support the gauges originally housed in the factory fairing and handlebar risers to adapt the top mounted RSD handlebars

The TL’s paint scheme came to life by way of Chris Redpath at MotoGP Werks but takes inspiration from 2-time AMA Superbike champ Wes Cooley & his factory Yoshimura Suzuki motorcycles

The American novelist Ray Bradbury, probably best known for his novel Fahrenheit 451, once said “Love what you do and do what you love.” While we can’t all be professional artists, sports figures, or racers; working for a company such as K&N Air Filters does allow the opportunity to apply a passion for performance into a real world career. Nick O’Kane, who serves as K&N’s Powersports Sales Manager, is just one of many examples of K&N employees who, in their spare time, build, customize, and even race vehicles with two wheels or four. Nick has a particular flair for building custom motorcycles that ride just as good as they look. Nick’s latest creation is a salvaged 2002 Suzuki TL1000R reincarnated as a beautiful café racer blending modern technology with styling cues from the past.

Nick was born and raised just outside the city of Liverpool in England. While Liverpool is famous for being home to The Beatles, Nick prefers to draw inspiration for his custom motorcycle builds from classic European and American motorcycle racing. The café racer look is a uniquely British style created by a subculture of young Britons which modern society would describe as hooligans. Early café racer motorcycles were stripped down Triumph, BSA, Norton, or even Vincent motorcycles intended, not for comfort, but for speed and handling. The café racer look has developed into a very unique style that continues today, usually with classic or modern British twins. Nick’s 2002 Suzuki TL1000R café racer is a bit out of the norm, but the TL’s excellent presentation is sure to please café racer purists.

The often criticized stock TL1000R shock was swapped for a fully adjustable unit from Hyper-Pro and a custom dual exhaust was created with mufflers sourced from Roland Sands Design

The original TL1000R gas cap and handlebar levers were swapped for anodized billet aluminum pieces from PSR USA which also serve to compliment the VooDoo Moto rear sets

Nick acquired the base for his café racer canvas as a salvaged motorcycle from the nearby shop of Motopia Cycles. Nick described it as a “smashed up dog” when he acquired the crashed bike for a mere $800. Removing the Superbike’s damaged fairings and bent sub-frame revealed a bike with just the right lines to serve as the starting point for this café racer build. The 2002 Suzuki TL1000R was torn down completely with many components, such as the frame, swing arm, and wheels sent off to be powder coated in flat black. To achieve the café racer look several components needed to be fabricated. The entire sub-frame is a custom one-off unit designed around the custom tail section and seat pan. The top triple clamps and gauge mounts were fabricated with risers to adapt the top mounted RSD handlebars and the gauges originally supported by the factory fairing.

Another issue encountered by removing the factory fairings was the lengthy and unsightly OE wiring harness of the Suzuki TL1000R. Nick describes the process of shortening the wiring harness as a “Nightmare which took days of cutting and soldering.” His efforts were not in vain as it allowed Nick to neatly tuck the wiring underneath the fuel tank and behind the Ducati Monster head light. The TL’s paint scheme was inspired by two-time AMA Superbike champion Wes Cooley and his factory Yoshimura Suzuki racing motorcycles from the late 1970’s and early 1980’s. Nick chose to apply the number 7 to the TL’s café racer tail section as a tribute to another of his favorite racers, Barry Sheene, who won the Motorcycle Grand Prix World Championship in 1976 and 1977 aboard a factory Suzuki 500.

Nick chose to apply the number 7 to the TL’s café racer tail section as a tribute to British racer Barry Sheene while the seat is all American from the folks over at Saddlemen Seats

When the fairings were removed the Suzuki TL1000R wiring harness was an unsightly mess, but with a lot of time cutting and soldering it tucks neatly behind the Ducati Monster headlight

As a crashed motorcycle the stock front forks were bent, but instead of repairing the stock units Nick opted to swap them for a set of Suzuki GSX-R forks from a newer motorcycle. To complement the GSX-R forks, and cure the often criticized rear suspension, the stock TL1000R shock was swapped for a fully adjustable unit from Hyper-Pro. Yamaha R6 calipers were adapted to the front Suzuki GSX-R forks. The R6 calipers combined with EBC brake rotors and pads helped to bring the TL’s braking up to par with newer sportbikes. Rear-sets from VooDoo Moto replace the stock foot pegs for a touch of class that is equally at home on the race track.

A custom 2 into 1 into 2 exhaust system was fabricated using mufflers sourced from Roland Sands Design. The custom exhaust was designed to let the TL’s 1,000 cc race inspired v-twin engine exhale, and let others know the TL isn’t your typical inline-four. As a loyal K&N employee, Nick’s 2002 TL1000R café racer is fitted with a high-flow K&N air filter, number SU-0015 and a K&N wrench-off oil filter, number KN-138. A Dynojet Power Commander was installed to supplement the TL1000R’s stock ECU for the increased airflow into and out of the engine. Further engine tuning was performed by MotoGP Werks to ensure Nick’s TL café racer performed well across the entire RPM range.

Nick is quick to admit that this project wouldn’t have been possible without the help of his friends and key industry partners. K&N air filters, Roland Sands Design, Dynojet, MotoGP Werks, EBC Brakes, PSR USA, VooDoo Moto, Hyper-Pro, Goodridge and Continental tires are just a few of the companies Nick would like to thank. As the seventh custom bike on Nick’s resume, this 2002 TL1000R certainly won’t be the last. Something about the TL1000 must have caught Nick’s fancy as he has already picked up another crashed TL with a new design in the planning stages.

The K&N reusable air filter for 2015-2016 Honda Fit models with a 1.5-liter DOHC i-VTEC engine is designed to increase airflow and reduce restriction over the stock automotive air filter

The 2015 and 2016 Honda Fit made its U.S. debut at the 2014 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) and was released for sale in mid-2014. The chassis is said to have been improved by reducing weight while increasing rigidity. Perhaps most exciting about the 2015 and 2016 Honda Fit is the new 1.5L dual overhead cam (DOHC) i-VTEC engine with Earth Dreams Technology. Through improvements in friction reduction, and implementation of direct injection technology, the Earth Dreams Technology equipped 1.5L engine in the 2015-2016 Honda Fit promises a combination of fuel efficiency and high-output.

The USDM Honda Fit is now in its third generation of production and improvements, such as Earth Dream Technology, have made this car better than the first generation

Owners of 2015-2016 Honda Fit 1.5L models can now equip this surprisingly powerful and efficient engine with a the high-flow technology used in every K&N washable and reusable cotton gauze air filter. The K&N 2015-2016 Honda Fit air filter is designed to fit into the stock air filter box of 1.5L DOHC i-VTEC models 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, a K&N replacement air filter can flow more air than a typical paper automotive air filter. More air and less restriction for such a high tech engine can result in a boost in performance and better acceleration.

Racing in temperatures well below the freezing point takes its toll on man and machine “I have never been so tired after a race, this cold weather does something to you,” said Menzies

The Red Bull Frozen Rush event is intended to put nine invitation only off-road truck racers to the test as they compete on the snow and ice of the Sunday River Ski Resort in Newry, Maine

By invitation only, nine professional off-road truck drivers traveled to Newry, Maine to take part in the second running of the Red Bull Frozen Rush event. These drivers are highly skilled at short-course stadium truck and desert style off-road racing. However, the Red Bull Frozen Rush is intended to put these racers to the test as they must compete on the snow and ice of the Sunday River Ski Resort. The 2015 Red Bull Frozen Rush course featured extreme jumps, eight-foot tall berms, various obstacles, 50 foot gaps, and bracket-style elimination racing for the trophy. The trucks were equipped with one-off spiked tires specifically made for this event and other than set-up adjustments, these trucks were identical to those they race in the Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing series.

Of the nine racers invited to the 2015 Red Bull Frozen Rush event, five of them are K&N sponsored drivers. In the end it was the K&N sponsored Red Bull Menzies Motorsports team of Bryce Menzies and Ricky Johnson standing upon the podium in first and second places. Motocross racing legend, and accomplished K&N sponsored Pro-4 truck driver, Ricky Johnson won the inaugural Red Bull Frozen Rush in 2014 and if not for a mistake in the final round may have taken the checkers once again.

Ricky Johnson got the better start off the line; however Bryce Menzies was literally right on his tail. Menzies made contact with the back of Johnson’s truck with the spiked tires chewing up and spitting out bits of Johnson’s Red Bull Pro-4 truck body panels. After the race Bryce Menzies stated, “Off the start he got me, and then I got a little traction and almost drove over the back of him. That start was a little scary for a second.” Johnson held his lead for a few more turns until he nearly spun out following one of the biggest jumps on the course. “My wheels landed a little bit off the groove and sent me sideways,” said Johnson.

While Johnson was able to recover much of the time he lost, Bryce Menzies held a commanding lead for the remainder of the six-lap race. “It’s amazing, (Ricky has) been my teammate for four years and he’s helped me through pretty much everything…and to start off the season with a win is huge,” said Menzies after the race. Rob MacCachren and Scott Douglas battled it out in the Trophy Race to determine who would place third. The four-lap race saw the two drivers swap the lead several times, yet in the end MacCachren crossed the finish line in the lead and claimed the third spot upon the podium. Chad Hord finished fifth, K&N racer RJ Anderson took sixth, Brian Deegan claimed seventh, K&N driver Carl Renezeder ended in eighth, and the K&N Filters sponsored racer Todd Leduc finished ninth. LeDuc had blown his engine in practice and missed qualifying. Renezeder and LeDuc battled it out in the closest contested race of the event during the last chance qualifier.

The final round of the 2015 Red Bull Frozen Rush saw Menzies Motorsports teammates Bryce Menzies and the 2014 Frozen Rush winner Ricky Johnson lined up together on the starting line

In the end it was the K&N sponsored Red Bull Menzies Motorsports team of Bryce Menzies and Ricky Johnson standing upon the 2015 Frozen Rush podium in first and second places

An excited Bryce Menzies said of winning the race “I have never been so tired after a race, this cold weather does something to you. I just want to thank my team, and all of my sponsors. Thank you to the wonderful people here in Maine that came out to show all of us support and allowing us to race up your mountain!” The 2015 Red Bull Frozen Rush will air on NBC Sunday, March 1st, 2015 at 2:00 pm ET.
