Aftermarket company purchases AIRAID

News Release

K&N has purchased the AIRAID company headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona.

We are very fortunate to bring the AIRAID brand into the K&N Engineering family.

AIRAID was founded in 1997 with the introduction of its AIRAID Intakes brand of air intake systems.

Initially developed for light trucks and sport utility vehicles, the first AIRAID kits combined an open-element cotton gauze filter with an intake tube to produce an innovative, easy-to-install intake kit which dramatically increased air flow, horsepower and torque while improving overall engine performance.

Within five years, explosive sales proved that AIRAID’s blend of technology and state-of-the-art materials were just what the performance parts market was missing. AIRAID Premium Filters were introduced in November 2002, securing AIRAID’s place as a leader in air management for both gasoline and diesel power plants. AIRAID’s product base now includes a wide variety of AIRAID Intake Systems, PowerAid Throttle Body Spacers and OEM replacement filters.
