Engine Air Filtration Facts & Technical Information
K&N users would probably be surprised by the
amount of air filtration testing and scientific research that goes on in K&N
facilities as well as in independent laboratories. As the leader and
originator of the high flow performance air filter we are always looking for new
ways to provide excellent protection and maximum power for your car, truck,
motorcycle, and just about anything else with an engine. In 2005 more than
1600 vehicles were tested by K&N's R&D group on dynamometers in the US,
United Kingdom, and the Netherlands. In addition to these power and torque
tests, we also performed more than 110 filtration tests and more than 1,200 air
flow tests with our in-house state-of-the-art test equipment. Select one

science behind their design and function.
