K&N Engineering has developed a 77 Series High-Flow Air Intake System (77-9030KP) with a bright finish for the 2007, 2008 and 2009 Toyota FJ Cruiser V6 4.0 liter engine. K&N dynamometer tests show a horsepower gain of 8.17 @ 4785 rpm.

"The factory air box is mounted to the intake manifold," said K&N Performance Kit Manager Bert Heck. "We gained horsepower by removing the factory intake system and replacing it with our smoother, less restrictive air intake. We also put in an oversized cone shaped K&N Air Filter (RF-1048) which allows for more dirt retention before cleaning is required. This is great for weekend warriors who love to go on the dirty and dusty back roads. The heat shield on 77-9030KP is secured using existing mounting points near the power steering reservoir and on the inner fender. "

The K&N Air Intake System is free-flowing which results in more power. "The mass air sensor is installed in the K&N Intake tube with the provided hardware," said Heck. "The placement of the mass air sensor was an important part of gaining horsepower on this kit."

The factory engine cover fits in its original location once the K&N Intake System is in place. It takes less than 90 minutes to install most K&N air intakes with common tools. K&N air intakes come with the famous K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty.

K&N Sprint Car Racer is Points Leader in Golden State Challenge Series

Sprint car racer Jonathan Allard is the points leader in the Golden State Challenge Series.

Jonathan Allard Jonathan Allard
Allard and Williams Motorsports ran in the double header at Kings Speedway in Hanford, California this past weekend.

K&N Filters, Red Line Oil No.0K&N Filters, Red Line Oil No.0
On Friday, Allard qualified sixth with the K&N Filters, Red Line Oil No.0 and ended up with the outside row number two starting spot for the 30-lap feature. “We use K&N Engineering Oil and Air Filters along with K&N’s Carbon Fiber Air Box,” said Allard. “K&N makes the best products, the oil and air filters are easy to use and maintain. We just wash, assemble and race and we never have to worry about performance.”

Allard made his move early in the feature and took the lead in one turn. There were numerous cautions and the pace began to slow. At lap 20 Brad Sweet took back the lead, but another caution stopped the race again. Roger Crockett was able to get by Allard for second place. When the white flag came up Allard was out of fuel but managed to make it across the line. He fell from third to seventh on the final lap.

On Saturday, Allard was 28th in the qualifying order but moved his way through lapped traffic to pick up the win and gain five points toward the championship. Allard leads the Golden State Challenge Series point standings by three digits over Sean Becker.

Williams Motorsports heads to Placerville Speedway for Round 5 in the GSC next Saturday.

Defending World of Outlaws Champ is 2007 Points Leader

Defending World of Outlaws champion Donny Schatz continued to set a whirlwind pace in the sprint car world with a one-two finish in the south. Schatz raced his ParkerStore sponsored No. 15 J&J with Shaver power to victory on Friday night near Houston, Texas and came home second Saturday in Mississippi.

“I would have been happier had we won both nights to tell you the truth,” said Schatz. “Things went really well in Houston and we came up a bit short in Mississippi. We’ve built our program to expect a certain level of results and we’ve got to continue pushing ourselves every night. This team still has a relatively new group of guys working together and we’re still working towards getting better.”

The Fargo, North Dakota racer finished inside the top three in eight of the first nine races for a strong early season. He maintains the lead in the WoO series standings. Schatz and the ParkerStore Team use K&N Engineering Products. The K&N Airbox works flawlessly,” he said. “We are able to attain maximum horsepower. I have to thank all the folks at K&N for their dedication to building a superior product.”

On Friday night Schatz dominated the program at Houston Raceway Park near Bayton, Texas. He won the heat, the dash event and led all 35 laps of the feature.

Following the event the ParkerStore team traveled to Magnolia, Mississippi and Pike County Speedway where they were one of 31 cars on the field. During the 35-lap feature Schatz started inside the second row. He pulled next to early leader Joey Saldana several times as the two raced side-by-side for the lead. Rubber began to come in around the bottom groove of the 3/8-mile dirt oval and there was no safe way to pass. Schatz raced to his first second place finish of the season behind Saldana.

“We figured the rubber would come in, but hoped we had enough time to get the lead,” said Schatz. “We battled Joey pretty good there for a few laps, but didn’t get to race in lapped traffic when there was still a top and bottom groove. That happens in racing I guess, but we’re focused on winning so the second place finish does not sit real well with this team. It’s motivation for next week in Tennessee where hopefully we can be in the hunt for another win.”

The ParkerStore Team returns to action next weekend when the World of Outlaws makes it debut at Volunteer Speedway in Bulls Gap, Tennessee.
