Description:
3-Angle Adapter: A 3-angle adapter is used to speed up the air flow for improved performance and throttle response.
This air intake system produces up to 7 HP, 7 lbs. x ft. torque and out-flows the factory intake by 45%. This air intake system offers a washable/reusable "oil-free" synthetic conical air filter with inverted top. Also included is a heat-insulating molded plastic tube that replaces the stock intake tract and directs increased air flow with improved volumetric efficiency for maximum performance. One-piece black powder-coated heat shield requires little or no assembly easy installation and the filter is constructed with 100% polyurethane for long life and multiple cleaning cycles.
One-Piece Filter Housing: The air filter is housed in a one-piece, black powder coated 16-gauge heat shield that keeps warm engine air out for maximum performance. This one-piece heat shield uses factory mounting locations and comes with all hardware for a hassle-free installation.
6 IN Conical Pro DRY S Air Filter: This intake utilizes a huge, 6 IN conical Pro DRY S performance air filter. This 3-layer progressive, synthetic material air filter requires no oil and cleans with soap and water for maximum convenience.
