K&N Air Filter Designed to Boost Horsepower on 2017 Ford Super Duty Trucks

The K&N E-0644 air filter is designed to boost horsepower on 2017 Ford F-Series Super Duty Trucks. The key for superb air filter performance is to limit the differential of air pressure within and without the filter as it prevents dirt particles from entering the engine. The K&N E-0644 replacement air filter achieves this due to its filter medium that features multi-layered cotton gauze that has been treated with a special grade of oil that makes the strands very sticky. So the filter blocks and holds the tiniest yet most relevant contaminants that could damage the engine. This ensures that the filter provides an overall filtration efficiency in the range of 96% to 99%. Moreover, airflow can have certain characteristics that could cause it to deposit the particles in a filter that can assist in affecting the air pressure differential within and without the air filter. If this occurs, then airflow is restricted limiting the filter’s performance. The physics of airflow has identified three principles that determine how an air filter removes dirt particles from the air stream. Each principle can affect the air pressure within the filter. These principles include interception, impaction, and diffusion. The first principle is known as interception. This references the dirt particles that travel through the filter with the air stream. Studies show that airflow will always take the shortest path. As the airflow carries the particles through the filter fibers, they contact the sides of the fibers and are captured and then held in place due to the tacky oil that is covering the cotton strands. The K&N E-0644 comes oiled and ready to install in a matter of minutes into your Super Duty Impaction, which affects mostly the larger or heavier dirt particles, occurs when the inertia or momentum of the particles causes them to deviate from the path of the airflow. Studies show that the heavier dirt particles do not follow the air stream around the filter’s fibers. Instead, they collide into the fibers and are captured. The principle of diffusion deals with the laws of physics that manage the motion of very small dirt particles. Forces in the air stream greatly influence the way small particles travel. These forces include velocity and pressure changes, and turbulence that occurs due to particles interacting with air molecules causing very small particles to travel randomly and chaotically. As a result, the particles do not follow the air stream and their erratic movement causes them to collide with the filter’s fibers. This allows the air filter to capture dirt particles that are much smaller than the openings in the media. Moreover, the multi-layered cotton gauze media offers many levels that are allowed to capture and retain particles. This permits the K&N filter to hold considerably more particles per square inch of media than an average paper filter. To better understand, let’s take a look at how a paper filter works. A paper air filter must be thick and/or the fibers must be tightly compressed and dense to meet minimum filtration standards. As a result, the paper filter is more restrictive to airflow by design. As a paper filter becomes more and more clogged, the pressure within it drops while the atmospheric air pressure outside the filter remains the same. As the pressure differential becomes too great, the filter will become more and more restrictive causing the airflow to pull dirt particles through the paper medium. The ability of the paper air filter to perform due to its restrictive condition adversely affects its ability to protect the engine. As dirt builds, passages are blocked and the paper filter must be replaced after only 10,000 miles of use. The Frazier Permeability Test confirms that the multi-layered cotton gauze medium of the K&N air filters flow more than 300% more air than a paper air filter medium when compared on a square inch per square inch basis. Another added benefit of the K&N replacement air filter with a multi-layered cotton gauze medium is that it is washable and reusable and designed and engineered to last up to 50,000 miles before cleaning is required (depending on driving conditions). K&N is so sure of the quality of the air filter it backs it with a K&N 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty that promises that the filter will perform for up to 10 years or 1,000,000 miles without need of replacement.

Friday, March 31, 2017 K&N Air Intakes Boost 2016-2017 Chevy Camaro SS Torque The increase in horsepower can be credited largely to the oversized conical air filter The Generation V 6.2L small block V8 is the latest chapter in the long, historic legacy of the small-block Chevy engine that stretches back to the mid-1950s. The latest design provides the 2016 Camaro SS not only with immense performance but unheard of efficiency from such a powerful engine. The 455 horsepower LT1 is similar in architecture to the LS family of small-block engines which it superseded, but with a unique aluminum block casting and aluminum cylinder heads, oiling system, and an aggressive 11.5:1 compression ratio. It also incorporates advanced technologies such as direct fuel Injection and continuously variable valve timing. And unlike many other auto manufacturers, GM believes there is plenty of development left in the traditional two valve push rod V8 and proves it with each new engine. To draw an adequate volume of air an entirely new intake manifold design was developed, which provides a straighter path into the combustion chamber. With as much time and development effort that GM engineers put into the LT1, one would assume that the intake system would leave no opportunity for improvement. But it does. There’s an additional way to improve the performance of your 2016 Camaro SS: the K&N 69-4534TP air intake system, which has been chassis dyno-tested proven to deliver an estimated 15.16 rear-wheel horsepower gain over an otherwise stock 2016 Camaro SS. The K&N 69-4534TP air intake system replaces the restrictive factory air filter and air intake housing on the 2016 Camaro SS. K&N AirChargers significantly improve incoming air flow as well as reduce turbulence in the intake tube. Installation of the K&N 69-4534TP is a snap and can be completed in less than a Saturday morning The air intake first enters a chrome capped K&N high-flow air filter sited within a heat shield that’s installed into the original air box space. A bulk of the horsepower increase can be credited to the oversized conical air filter manufactured from multiple layers of oiled cotton filter media - which offers less resistance than traditional filters. The multi-layered red cotton material also filters out microparticles that could damage your engine, to help ensure a long engine life. Each design is verified through K&N’s in-house filtration testing lab, which adheres to ISO 5011 standards, ensuring that your K&N filter provides high airflow without putting engine protection at risk. Air is then directed through an aerodynamically-verified polished aluminum intake tube into the engine’s throttle body for an estimated 15 horsepower gain. The intake tube includes fittings for the factory mass air sensor and crank case vent hose. Best of all, the K&N 69-4534TP air intake system can be installed in 90 minutes or less with simple hand tools In addition to more power, this air intake system improves engine sound with more aggressive and deeper acoustics during acceleration. And once you’ve installed your K&N cold air intake system you’ve eliminated the need to buy another air filter for the life of your covered 2016 Camaro SS. The only maintenance is a service you can do yourself in no time at all. At intervals of 100,000 miles (depending upon your driving conditions) use the K&N 99-5000 recharger kit to clean and refresh your air filter, preparing it for another 100,000 miles of driving. The K&N air filter you purchase is designed to last for the lifetime of your vehicle, which K&N guarantees will perform for up to 10 years or 1,000,000 miles without requiring replacement. The K&N 69-4534TP cold air intake is designed for the following vehicles: 2017 CHEVROLET CAMARO SS 6.2L V8 Fuel Injection - All Models 2016 CHEVROLET CAMARO SS 6.2L V8 Fuel Injection - All Models Tuesday, November 8, 2016 How do Cold Air Intake Systems Work? Cold Air Intake Systems 101 Cold Air Intake System 101 If you have even a casual interest in cars, then you've probably heard that installing a cold air intake system will give your car more power. And that's largely true, but the performance gains ultimately depend on the vehicle, and the type of performance intake system that's being used. A traditional type of performance intake uses a heat shield to prevent the air filter from ingesting warm engine bay air. This type of system can increase performance, by simply changing the quality of air going into the engine. But there's nothing 'simple' about engineering one of these cold air intake systems. Why cold air is so important? Fire can't exist in a vacuum, because it needs oxygen to fuel itself. So before the spark plugs can ignite the gasoline, the valves have to allow air into each cylinder. This oxygen is fed to the throttle body through an air intake system, which pulls air from a high-pressure zone, typically located at the front of the hot engine bay. Although this air is usually fairly cool, it can heat up as it travels through the intake tube. This reduces its potency, and causes power to be lost during each combustion cycle. If you think back to 7th grade science class, you may remember that cold air has a higher density than warm air, because it contains more oxygen molecules. And since horsepower comes from the intensity of each fuel detonation, increasing the volume of oxygen in the fuel/air mixture will cause the fuel to burn more intensely. In laymen's terms, adding more cold air/oxygen will make the gas burn hotter, which will create more power. Following that simple horsepower formula has allowed K&N cold air intake systems to become one of the most popular performance upgrades on the market today. Factory air intake systems When car company engineers develop an air intake system, they have to factor in things like noise suppression, emission regulations, and the amount of room they have to work with (often referred to as 'packaging'). To meet the performance objectives for a particular model, they'll study the air temperature and air pressure zones under the hood. The air box is then placed in a low temperature zone, and the air box inlet is positioned in a high-pressure area, so it can collect cool outside air as flows through the bodywork. And finally, a sealed lid is used to keep the air filter from ingesting hot air coming off the engine. Factory air intakes might limit engine performance, but a lot of science goes into choosing that air box location. K&N Cold air intake system installed Classic cold air intake systems Since the OEM air box is usually located in a low-temperature, high-pressure zone. Cold air intake systems can increase horsepower by replacing the restrictive stock intake, with components that are designed to handle a much larger volume of air. To ensure all that extra oxygen is cold, a low-restriction K&N performance air filter is positioned where the stock air box used to be. A rugged heat shield is then placed around the oversized air filter, to prevent hot engine air from getting into the system. The shape of the heat shield is specifically engineered to funnel cold air from that high pressure zone, directly into the air filter. While the outer edges of the K&N heat shield are often fitted with a special gasket, thus sealing against the underside of the hood to control the temperature and pressure of the air entering the system. This allows a K&N cold air intake system to boost performance, by simply improving on the factory design. Choosing the right cold air intake system Besides the performance benefits, legality is something that you need to consider. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) has very strict rules about performance intake systems. Many high performance cold air intake systems are not street legal in California, or any other state that has adopted California Emissions Standards. The K&N 57-Series FIPK performance intake systems on the other hand, is completely street legal in all 50 states, and it even comes with a CARB EO (executive order) number to comply with smog inspection. K&N cold air intake systems mount the air cleaner high above the road surface. So engine performance won't be effected by the weather, or environmental conditions. But if you are concerned about those type of issues, K&N offers a water repellant DryCharger filter wrap. To find out which K&N cold air intake systems will fit your ride, use the search by vehicle tool, or use the dealer search tool to find a K&N dealer near you.
