There are two short ram aluminum tubes, two K&N high-flow air filters, RU-5147, and two powder coated steel heat shields. Testing shows the 69-2003TFK gets an amazing 20.77 more horsepower @ 5700 RPM for these models.

Comrie-Picard and co-driver Marc Goldfarb brought their Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 1X with K&N Engineering products across the finish line. “We work in a high-dust, high-speed environment with a motor built right to the edge of the envelope,” said Comrie-Picard. “We just can’t let any contaminants get in and K&N has been our choice for a decade.”

Comrie-Picard is known throughout the circuit for his talent in the tighter, more technical stages and opted to take a conservative approach to the high-speed Olympus Rally course. “The event was about bravery and horsepower, along with full points,” he said. “There was no need to take risks here.”

Top crews hit speeds close to 130 mph on the slippery gravel course roads. The team’s Mitsubishi performed almost flawlessly over the two-day race.

In addition to the championship title, drivers are vying for a chance to compete at the high-profile X Games this summer in Los Angeles, California. After the first five rounds of competition top teams receive invitations to the ESPN contest.

“We’re looking forward to another good run in the X Games this season,” said Comrie-Picard. “We’ve competed there since the beginning in 2006 and can’t wait to go back in 2008.”

With two round left in the qualification series, Comrie-Picard has earned more points this season than he accumulated when earned his invitation in 2007.

The next Rally America race will be at the Oregon Trail Rally in May.
