Add Performance to the Fiat Grande Punto with K&N 57i Induction Kit
- 18 Oct 2006
The Fiat Grande Punto is from the larger hatchback sector, available in the 1.2
liter and 1.4 liter. The 1.4 liter engine generates an extra 12 BHP over the 1.2
with a maximum power output of 77 BHP. It is very popular in Europe, the Middle
East and Africa. The Fiat Grande Punto is a smaller sporty car, liked by the
young crowd. K&N Engineering has developed a 57i Series Air Intake Kit (57-0655) for the 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 Fiat Grande Punto 1.4L L4 and the 2005 to 2010 Fiat Grande Punto 1.2L L4 and the 2007 to 2015 Fiat 500 1.2L L4 and 2009 to 2016 Ford KA 1.2L. "This K&N Kit (57-0655) is very easy to install," said K&N Air Filter Project Manager Joost Adriaans. "The filter bolts directly onto the throttle body. A vent hose is connected to the base of the filter with a vent adaptor." The cold air hose is typical for most K&N 57i kits. "It is a flexible hose that is attached to the front (usually the grill) of the car," said Adriaans. "While in motion, the hose feeds cold air to the filter for maximum performance." Each K&N 57i Series Kit is designed to provide power throughout the RPM range. "The 1.2 liter tests show around a 3 BHP gain," said Ian Burdis of K&N Filters (Europe) Ltd. "The 1.4 liter dyno tests show around a 4 BHP gain with the 57-0655."
