This year Dodge has managed to beef up their advertising campaigns to initiate the rebirth of the Durango. The 2011 Dodge Durango includes distinctive styling, updated entertainment system options, and a 3.6 liter V6 engine. Towing capacity for the 3.6L Durango is quite impressive and is rated at around 6,000 pounds. Improved steering response gives the driver a feeling like they are behind the wheel of a midsize sedan. The new Dodge Durango is a breeze to maneuver. Dodge has really done a fantastic job with 2011 Durango models.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee also received an update for 2011 in its quest for a comeback. It is arguable but, most would say the Grand Cherokee was stuck in a rut for the last decade. A slump normally signifies the bottom of an upward climb. Last year's Grand Cherokee must have been rock bottom because this year's model is quite impressive. The 2011 Grand Cherokee still provides excellent off road support and stays true to the one of a kind Jeep styling. It utilizes a 3.6 liter engine and offers three four wheel drive systems depending on driving needs.

Luckily for these returning veterans, K&N manufactures a power gaining air intake system that matches both vehicle specifications. 2011 Dodge Durango and 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee models with the 3.6 liter engine can now benefit from increased air flow and performance by replacing the factory intake system with the K&N's 77-1560KTK air intake.

This K&N air intake system is designed to increase vehicle power and acceleration, by reducing restriction in the intake path. K&N's 77-1560KTK power testing showed an estimated gain of 10.75 horsepower at 5447 rpm.

The 77-1560KTK comes with a powder coated steel heat shield that isolates the filter from the rest of the engine compartment. This directs cooler air toward the air filter. The intake's tube is a free-flowing mandrel-bent aluminum tube with a textured black finish.  Installation of the 77-1560KTK air intake system is made simple with K&N's detailed instructions. This air intake system attaches using all existing mounting points and can be done in 90 minutes or less.

The K&N air filter can go up to 100,000 miles before servicing is needed, depending on driving conditions. K&N recommends servicing this K&N air filter using a K&N Recharger kit.  K&N is so confident in their products they back the 77-1560KTK air intake with their million mile limited warranty.
