K&N Short Ram Performance Air Intake for Kia Forte & Forte Koup 2.0L
- 16 Oct 2014
It’s fairly obvious that when Kia Motors America engineers designed the Kia Forte, they had their sights set on the traditional Honda Civic owner. This is especially obvious when you consider that the Kia Forte Koup is the only 2-door car in direct competition with the Honda Civic outside of the rebadged Hyundai Elantra. The naturally aspirated gasoline direct injection (GDI) 2.0-liter engine found in the 2014 Kia Forte and Kia Forte Koup is rated at 173 horsepower and 154 lb-ft of torque from the factory, but reducing air intake restriction can help this advanced engine perform even better. Owners seeking some extra boost in the power department can now install the 69-5314TS K&N performance short ram intake system. By replacing the maze of convoluted air intake tubes, stock air filter box, and disposable car air filters, K&N intake systems are able to reduce restriction and increase power.
The 2014 Kia Forte 2.0L short ram intake from K&N is precision-engineered to be a simple-to-install performance add-on. The backbone of this intake system is a free-flowing mandrel-bent aluminum intake tube which helps to minimize restriction, and prevent turbulence, allowing your engine to breathe easier. A durable silver color powder coated finish is applied to the tube, providing an attractive appearance under the hood that will look great for years to come..
K&N equips the 69-5314TS short ram intake with the oversized RU-4600 reusable air filter, providing a large surface to help increase airflow while providing outstanding engine protection. The washable air filter is made with K&N’s famous high-flow filter media so it’s washable and reusable and can even go up to 100,000 miles between cleanings, depending on driving conditions. To top it all off, a heat shield designed specifically for the 2014 Kia Forte 2.0L is included with the short ram intake, helping to deflect engine heat away from incoming air. All of the design features of this short ram intake system work in harmony to deliver increased performance. On the dyno, 69-5314TS produced an estimated additional 8.2 horsepower at 5467 rpm and an impressive 7.03 pound-feet of torque at 4007 rpm over the factory air filter box and convoluted air intake tubes when installed on a 2014 Kia Forte Koup 2.0L. This short ram intake system is guaranteed to provide a boost in power for 2014 Kia Forte and Kia Forte Koup models with the naturally aspirated GDI 2.0L engine. With simple to follow instructions and no need to make any other modifications to the vehicle, you’ll be on the road in approximately 90 minutes with more horsepower under your right foot. If all that weren’t enough, K&N backs its short ram intake and cold air intake systems with the industry-leading K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty®. If you’re looking to take your 2014 Kia Forte and Kia Forte Koup models with the naturally aspirated GDI 2.0L engine almost to the performance level of the 1.6L turbo engine, look no further than the 69-5314TS Typhoon short ram intake system. K&N short ram intake system 69-5314TS is designed to provide a lifetime of increased power on the following Kia Forte models:
