Product Description

K&N 57i Generation II Induction Kits are built primarily for European vehicles. They come with K&N's Million Mile Limited Warranty. These intake kits use only non-metallic rotationally molded tubes that can reduce air temperature and decrease intake sound over a metal tube. Restriction can exist BETWEEN an air filter and the engine reducing the benefit of a K&N Air Filter alone. The weakest link in the airflow "chain" robs a vehicle of its natural horsepower. Often that weak point is the factory air path leading to the engine. K&N Air Intake Kits virtually eliminate air path restriction by replacing the air filter and the entire air path to the engine. The aerodynamically engineered tube drives a massive amount of air into an engine, which translates into POWER. 57i Intakes are not legal for use in California and other US States adopting California emission standards.

K&N 57I-6508 Performance Intake Kit Review

I installed the K&N 57i Intake Kit on my 2007 Renault Clio 1.6L, 16 valves, 110 HP. With close to 2 months in the car, I can only give an opinion not supported by hard data. I know that this car is not available in the US, but it is similar to other subcompact 5 door hatchbacks with small engines. Renault and Nissan are managed by the same CEO.

The only other modification that I have in the engine is the use of the Pulstar BE-1 pulse plugs. My first impression of the K&N is a lot more power, I wasn't expecting that punch the first time I drove out of the garage. Second impression was a lot more engine noise, a lot more. I love the sound of engines, but this is a little too much when I go full throttle. I'm considering using Dynamat or any other sound dampening for the firewall and front floor of the car.

The performance is worth 5 stars, but the noise is just a little too much, so I only give it 4 stars.

The instructions are very good, and easy to follow. I did a little change on the lay out of the hose that drives fresh air to the filter, my car doesn't have fog lights (I'm happy with the xenon headlamps), so I cut the front grill where the left light is supposed to be and put there the hose so it can be as far as possible from the radiator.

This car used to have lots of variations while idling (normal on all Clios at Mexico City's altitude) which the K&N improved. It's worth mention that Mexico City is at 2,240 meters above sea level (7,400 feet).

My driving is mostly on city traffic doing a lot of Stop & Go. It takes me 40 minutes to do the 10.5 miles between home and work.
