Your channel is an inspiration to me , how you started with a regular challenger with a high APR and how upgrading to a HEMI V8 lol. 1 day I'll get there , I'm still with a Charger V6 for the meantime 🙏
Fijiizz yeah I'm rocking with a 2019 charger GT it has the Blacktop edition and the Scatpack body it's fucking nice, as long as your happy fuck what people think , only thing it lacks is performance but I don't care since I don't got $$ to be spending on gas 24/7
@@kaneki467 man bro the GTs are sick. I rented one from my job for a road trip and MPG was golden haha and for a heavy sedan with a V6 it hides its weight very well with that 300hp
I've got an aFe CAI on my challenger srt8, and is much better when done together with performance exhaust. She's got 3" pipe with 2 open chamber racing bullets, which also eliminates the resos and sounds awesome
Your stock lower air box looks identical to the hellcat’s lower intake box where it has a inlet hole that you weren’t sure of. That works if you purchase a mopar air duct that fits right onto that hole and the whole air duct just extends all the way to the fender grill area sucking that fresh air right into the box. Same if you bought an AFE GT momentum kit instead of this one, that one has a same inlet hole specially designed to fit the mopar air inlet duct. The one you bought is very good at collecting heat at idle, because the air box is not sealed like the stock box or AFE GT momentum one, and the heat generated by the radiator is blown right at the intake filter. If you want a better performance, definitely go back to your stock box and get the mopar air duct and a radiator shield to fit along with, (they dont cost much) that would give you so much more air as well as dropping your intake temp significantly both at running and idling. Or spend more at the GT momentum kit along with the air duct kit too but i dont see a necessity for it other than its look. Hopefully this helps!
Idk about R/ts but 392s I bought the afe gt momentum on the dyno I only gained 6whp I returned it for a K&n typhoon aluminum I gained 16whp only down side for K&n at idle or sitting it gets hot fast but cools down fast too
I feel like intakes make the biggest difference on a 6 cylinder. A v8 will always sound good but a v6 really gets woken up. That doesn’t mean I wouldn’t put one on a v8 car because i would.
lol yea it def makes a world of a difference on V6s and as far as V8s go it allows it to breath a lot better and really allows the cooler air to flow in
Love your channel man! You got Rams and chargers! I just got a 2013 charger R/t plus and I was looking for upgrades, and found you! What brand is your phone holder on the side?
It's all about the power of suggestion, not cost effective in my opinion. Besides, there's rarely any "cold" air in the desert, and no "cold" air this time of year.
@Doggy-style1994 That's my point, the term "cold air intake box" is a misnomer. Technically speaking the stock air intake box on the Challengers and Chargers are "cold air intake boxes" because they are sealed from drawing air from the engine bay. The term "cold air intake" is a marketing gimmick and not worth the money. You could install a Hellcat air intake for a third of the cost. BTW, it looks like he already has a Hellcat box but no duct to suck air from behind the grille, unlike the Challenger which sucks air from the inner headlight and from the bottom of the box which is sealed.
Get a 180 t stat and port your 5.7 Manifold and upgrade your throttle body to 85mm or 87mm max size on 5.7. But I'm upgrading to a 6.4 intake manifold, 87mm throttle body and corsa CAI(6.4) for for my 5.7 and I already have a 180 t stat
Hey quick question I also have a 57 and I plan on getting a six for intake manifold and on the cold air intake should I get the 64,s Version of a cold air intake instead of the 57?
I don’t know about 17HP.. You should see if it improved your 0 to 60 time. When I installed mine, I actually couldn’t match my best time before the install. The other thing that bothers me is calling it a CAI. Its pulling air from the same spots so I don’t see how the intake temps could improve. Whats your thoughts.
@@challengerman6076 I actually had a CAI installed on my 19 challenger rt and definitely noticed a power difference. It wasn't a placebo effect. I had it dyno'd before and after the CAI installation. Gained 11hp and 13 tq.
SDolemite92 That’s not bad, I’ll take an 11HP gain. I just changed my PCM with diablosport and their 91oct tune on my 2018 RT Challenger. I turned the 4cyl mode off. Really love the results, you should consider doing that. The tune really makes a difference. It is a little expensive, I opted to buy an additional PCM rather then a swap. That way I could always go back for any warranty issues.
@@challengerman6076 I might as well. I'm going to need a tune once my other planned mods are installed anyway lol. I need better tires too. I got it about 2 months ago and I'm still on the stock 245's. Which suck btw.
@@zorionmeeks1373 im guessing he barely pushed it and he took it out of sport mode for his runs for some reason. but my performance pages in my RT shows my car pushin around 402hp and a little more torque stock on full throttle from a dig and low speed roll
Dont forget he lives in a hot area his intake temp was 113 I'm sure your stock r/t wont even push 370 with it being over 100 outside. My r/t stock a few weeks ago pushed 380 something but it was 50 degrees outside which is a huge difference
@craigwilson1284 do not put an open air box on your car, this is the worst thing u could possibly do all that engine heat is getting sucked into the intake get a closed box like the hellcat oem or a momentum gt that's what I have my intake temp went from 150+ from an open box air raid intake to 1 to 2 degrees above ambient with the momentum gt. You will get way more power gains and it will be way better for your engine
If you live in a hot climate keep that car in a garage, 2 of my door panels separated from heat. Mine is only 2 years old with 25k miles, thankfully it's under warranty but a $700 repair per door out of warranty
@@PeRRXX yep, top part curled up and away from the door. The back order for replacement panels is pretty bad right now, they only fixed one door and waiting on another panel. Oh and my 8.4 screen started to separate too... I've also seen that on other chargers and it took a week to get one in.
So I was thinking about getting this cold air Intake for my newly purchased Dodge Charger GT. But I'm scared its going to make it slower. I say that because I purchased a K&N air filter for my Kia Optima SX and it made it alot slower for whatever reason. So I'm curious if anyone else has had this problem or if it was just me?
@@carlosbishop6386 Every V8 muscle car should have a catch can, a lot of oil will end up going through your intake if you don't. I catch about 4-5oz of oil per oil change and the Hellcat guys capture 2-3 times that much due to high crankcase pressures. Even the turbo 4 guys run catch cans for the same reason.
@@carlosbishop6386 Catch Can's are snake oil and have been proven to be so for years. It's just another product they sell. Just like a CAI. You gain 2-5 HP at most but they sell it as 15+ HP increases which is not true.
Get some 305 or 315 tires in the rear ???? Those 245s don't do justice 😉 my v6 Challenger stock is Incredible and not using sport mode I got 315/35/20 on 10.5x20s
I’ve installed both actually(I installed a K&n on my friend’s 300) As far as quality the aFe is way nicer and a lot easier to install, Performance wise you can never really tell a difference.
Possibly better gas mileage since the engine can breathe better and the air is "Colder" but you dont need to change your manifold just for an air intake because its not forced air going into the engine... You are thinking about turbos or superchagers
Z 100 on my drive from Dallas to Houston, my average would be 28, are you putting cruise control on? That’s the only way it stays in 4 cylinder mode :/
@@brandonUwanawich954 The GT Momentum is 100% better than the Typhoon wtf are you talking about? Aluminum Intakes also have higher Temps. If you wanted to save money cool but the Typhoon isn't better.
Man, all these RT's I see on RU-vid and no one has the Daytona package. WHHYYYYY????? For an extra $3K it's a steal of an option and it comes with the Mopar CAI and a BUNCH of other goodies. Can't wait for my 2021 RT Daytona arrives at my dealership up here in Canada!
I installed an AFE CAI just yesterday and at first I had no check engine light but after driving it around a couple of times the light came on. Do you or anyone know why ?
To give you an idea on how unnecessary this filter is for the stock 345 hemi, unless you tune the pcp and engine, a hellcat filter for the stock air box is overkill
He was only doing a quick pull so you’re not going to see 370 you’d have to hold it at full throttle to see all the horses. Does anyone do homework anymore
TheTOMMINATOR dude you can lmao all you want bro but if you’ve ever seen how a dino works they run them at full throttle pulls to get the average hp specs so next time you lmao read a book or something first lol
