K&N 04 Acura TL Blue Typhoon Short Ram Intake

The K&N 69-0021TB Typhoon cold-air intake system is a free-flowing, mandrel-bent aluminum tube air induction system designed to fit some Acura TL models. The restrictive factory air filter and air intake housing are replaced by the K&N Typhoon cold-air intake which is designed to pull in relatively cooler air and dramatically reduce air flow restriction by smoothing and straightening air flow. This allows your engine to inhale a larger amount of denser air than the factory air intake. More air means more usable power and acceleration throughout the engine's RPM range. The 69-0021TB air intake comes with a black rubber topped K&N high-flow air filter that installs into the front, bottom inner fender to capture cooler outside air. Air is directed through the cold air tube and into a short ram intake tube that leads into the engine's throttle body for a guaranteed power gain. The aluminum tubes have an attractive blue powder-coat finish that's made to last and it accommodates the factory crank case vent hose. The oversized cone shaped air filter comes with a water repellent DryCharger filter wrap to protect the filter from moisture. The air filter can be used for up to 100,000 miles before servicing is needed depending on driving conditions. This air intake is relatively easy to install usually in 90 minutes or less. The tools needed are a screwdriver, ratchet set and pliers. Some Typhoon air intakes are not legal for sale or use in California and other states adopting California emission standards while others are CARB exempt and 50 state legal. Check the K&N catalog or website for vehicle applications and specific CARB status for each vehicle and air intake. K&N's easy-to-install Typhoon air intake system replaces the restrictive factory air filter and air intake housing delivering a guaranteed power gain. The low-restriction aluminum tubes come in a blue powder coat finish.
