Toyota Land Cruiser Cold Air Intake System - K&N 63-9040 AirCharger

For several decades now, the world's top three SUVs have been the Range Rover, Mercedes G-Wagon, and the Toyota Land Cruiser. These de-militarized brutes offer unsurpassed off-roading capability, combined with the luxurious isolation of a private jet. The most practical of these three luxury SUVs is the Toyota Land Cruiser, because it can combine prodigious continent conquering performance, with the reliability of a Toyota. In fact, in the United States market, the Land Cruiser routinely sits in the top 5 of the top 10 vehicles that people own for the longest amount of time. Besides the luxury and reliability, the Toyota 3UR-FE 5.7L certainly has enough horsepower and torque to propel you to the lake, the mall, or across the back-40. But since you can never have too much of a good thing, a K&N 63-9040 AirCharger performance intake system can give you an estimated increase of 17.05 horsepower and 11.82 lb-ft of torque. And it can even save you money on maintenance too.

The secret to the Toyota Land Cruiser, lies in the combustion cycle. Each Toyota 3UR-FE 5.7L V8 uses something called dual variable valve timing (Dual VVTi), which allows the computer to instantly adjust both the exhaust and intake camshafts. This helps the motor to vary the amount of fuel and air being injected into the cylinders, based on the current throttle position. Air is a very important part of this equation, because it takes oxygen molecules to fuel the explosion that occurs when the spark plug ignites the fuel/air mix. To quickly increase the amount of horsepower and torque that your 2016–2017 Toyota Land Cruiser makes, you need to increase the number of oxygen molecules that are present during the combustion cycle. If you paid attention in school, you would know that warm air contains fewer oxygen molecules than warm air. And that can be a bit of a problem if you're trying to create more power.

Eliminate airflow restrictions with a K&N Toyota Land Cruiser Performance Intake - K&N 63-90

Eliminate airflow restrictions with a K&N Toyota Land Cruiser Performance Intake - K&N 63-9040

To fix this problem, the K&N 63-9040 AirCharger performance intake system utilizes a number of low restriction components. To start, the stock intake tube is replaced by a custom molded K&N intake tube that is designed to reduce air turbulence by providing a more direct airflow path to the engine. This high-flow Toyota 5.7L intake tube also has integrated fittings for the factory sensors, which allows for an average installation time of just 90 minutes. Attached to that is a low restriction K&N performance air filter, surrounded by a specially designed heat shield that seals itself against the underside of the hood. This reduces the amount of warm engine bay air entering the system. Inside the heat shield is an oversized K&N performance air filter, which is made from a unique low restriction cotton gauze material. Unlike the paper OE Toyota Land Cruiser 5.7L air filter, the K&N Toyota Land Cruiser performance air filter uses a proprietary oil treatment that soaks into the cotton fibers, creating a sticky web that traps and holds up to 97% of airborne contaminants. Since all of that dirt stays trapped inside the filter material (called 'depth loading'), it won't have to be cleaned for up to 100,000 miles (depending on driving conditions). Plus, this entire Toyota Land Cruiser cold air intake system is backed by the K&N 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty.

All of the additional cold air provided by the K&N 63-9040 cold air intake system, will give your 2016-2017 Toyota Land Cruiser more horsepower and torque at low RPMs, and much quicker throttle response when you step on the 'Go Pedal'. In fact, K&N dyno tests show an estimated 17 HP increase with the K&N cold air intake installed.

The K&N 63-9040 is designed to fit the following vehicles:

2017 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER 5.7L V8 Fuel Injection - All Models
2016 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER 5.7L V8 Fuel Injection - All Models
