The K&N Engineering 57i-0432 Performance Intake Kit is designed for the Volkswagen Beetle with a 1.8L 20V Turbo L4 engine rated at 150 horsepower. This vehicle-specific induction kit replaces the size restrictions associated with the factory air box, using a larger open-air filter to support increased airflow with lower restriction than a K&N original-equipment replacement filter limited by the factory air box.
The washable and reusable K&N air filter provides additional surface area for airflow and can capture and hold more dirt, extending the service interval before cleaning is required for up to 100,000 miles. The filter connects to the engine throttle body through the included adapter arrangement, with adapters made from materials such as steel, aluminum, silicone or reinforced nylon for long service life.
K&N 57i Series induction kits are designed to provide power throughout the RPM range and are intended to be easy to install. This kit includes the large washable and reusable K&N air filter with adapters for connection to the engine’s throttle body. It is backed by K&N’s No-Hassle Lifetime Limited Warranty and K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty.
