2014, 2015 & 2016 K&N Kia Soul Short Ram Intake System Even Some Party Rock Hamsters Can Appreciate
- 29.09.2014
The Kia Soul was made popular by the award winning “A new way to roll” advertising campaign featuring a car full of hamsters breaking free of the rat race by choosing to roll in a Soul. Perhaps one of the most memorable commercials from this advertising campaign was aired during the MTV Video Music Awards (VMA’s) and featured the song “Party Rock Anthem” by the group LMFAO.
Despite the implications of the “A new way to roll” ad campaign, the 2014-2016 Kia soul isn’t powered by a hamster running on a wheel. In fact, the 2014, 2015 and 2016 Kia Soul has an optional 2.0-liter NU MPI engine that packs 162 ponies under the hood. 162 horsepower is respectable, but reducing air intake restriction can help this engine perform even better. Owners seeking some extra boost in the power department can now install the 69-5313TS K&N performance short ram intake system. By replacing the maze of air ducting, stock air filter box, and disposable car air filters, K&N intake systems are able to reduce restriction and increase power. 69-5313TS 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, allowing your engine to breathe easier. The larger than stock intake tube is mated to the original equipment throttle body with a reinforced stepped coupler. 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 69-5313TS with the oversized RU-4600 reusable air filter, providing a large surface to help increase airflow without sacrificing engine protection. The reusable air filter is made with K&N’s famous high-flow filter media so it’s a washable and reusable air filter that can go up to 100,000 miles between cleanings, depending on driving conditions. A heat shield shrouds the air filter under the hood, helping to deflect engine heat away from air entering the short ram intake. All of the design features of the 69-5313TS performance short ram air intake system work in harmony to deliver increased performance. On the dyno, 69-5313TS produced an estimated additional 5.35 horsepower at 5852 rpm and an equally beneficial 5.42 pound-feet of torque at 4726 rpm over the factory air filter box system when installed on an otherwise stock 2014-2016 Kia Soul with the 2.0-liter NU MPI engine. The 69-5313TS short ram air intake system is an excellent upgrade for a 2014, 2015 and 2016 Kia Soul with the 2.0-liter NU MPI engine. With simple to follow instructions and no need to make any other modifications to the vehicle, even a Party Rock Hamster can appreciate a new way to roll their Kia Soul. If all that weren’t enough, K&N backs the 69-5313TS with the industry-leading K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty®. If you’re looking to put a few more ponies under the hood of a 2014-2016 Kia Soul with the 2.0-liter NU MPI engine, look no further than the 69-5313TS Typhoon short ram intake system. K&N Air Intake System 69-5313TS is designed to provide a lifetime of increased power on the following Kia Soul models:
