New Premium Air Filter Intake from HKS!
HKS provides a "Mature premium sports air filter with high quality driving" with the Premium Suction Kit. Aluminum suction pipe and Super Hybrid Filter reduces intake resistance and enables quick response.
- Replacing the stock intake pipe with the mirror finished aluminum pipe accentuates its appearance in the engine bay and improves performance.
- HKS Premium suction''s materials were selected and layout was designed to reduce the resistance to air passing through the intake compared with the stock intake. Replacing the stock intake pipe with the HKS premium Suction''s aluminum pipe noticeably reduces the intake resistance.
- Newly developed Non-woven fabric collects large dust and polyurethane filter collects small dust. Thus the HKS Super Hybrid Filter''s 3 layers are made of different materials and functions to meet all the requirements for a sports air filter that needs to balance high performance and long life.
HKS
In October 1973, two talented and spirited young engineers had a vision; to design and build high performance engines and components that major OE manufacturers could not or would not produce.Led by Hiroyuki Hasegawa, a former engineer for Yamaha Motor Company, and his partner Goichi Kitagawa, the two secured a capital infusion from Sigma Automotive Co., Ltd. (hence the name “HKS ”), and began tuning gasoline powered engines in a dairy-farming shed at the foot of Mount Fuji in Japan. A year later, Mr. Hasegawa designed and built the first aftermarket turbocharger for passenger cars and has never looked back.
HKS pioneered the Japanese aftermarket performance industry by delivering a host of exciting new products, including the first commercially available electronic turbo timer and boost controller. Other early products included piggy-back fuel computers and sophisticated fuel management tools. Clearly HKS was Driving Performance trends for Japanese vehicles.
