SEMA 2013: K&N’s Sleek New Blackhawk Induction Systems

If you haven’t seen K&N’s new line of Blackhawk Induction air intakes, you should definitely check them out! New is their Dryflow filter technology that makes it’s debut in the Blackhawk line. Though what makes these kits different is the fact that they’re outfitted with an inconspicuous all-black finish.

Designed and manufactured in Riverside, California, the Blackhawk Induction air intakes use lightweight aluminum tubing that is cut and shaped to precise specifications. The tube’s surface is then carfully hand-worked to remove any rough edges or metal burs.

Once the tube has all of the imperfections worked out, a K&N engraved plaque is then welded to the intake tube. The intake tubes are then powdercoated with a durable matte black finish to give that extra sleek look. To top off the aesthetics of the kit, the hose clamps are black and so is the Dryflow air filter.

The Blackhawk Induction air intakes are easy to install, as were K&N’s previous intake kits, and can be done in the comfort of your own garage using common tools. In most cases the intakes will be mounted using factory mouting points and can be installed in 90 minutes or less. And for those wondering – yes, the Blackhawk Induction intakes come with K&N’s million mile warranty.

These sleek, inconspicuous air intake kits are a great way to help the engine breathe better, gain a healthy amount of horsepower, and overall maintain a stock looking engine bay. Head on over to K&N’s website for a complete list of applications and pricing on these under-the-radar intake kits.
