Will this work on 19 ram 1500?
Just installed this Series 63 on my 2013 Dodge Ram 5.7. Took a half hour start to finish. You can feel the difference for sure. Sounds better also. A must have for your Ram
Lol 😂 it seems that way but it doesn’t add anything. You could put a sticker on your truck and think it feels faster 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

waiting for mine in the mail !!! excited
Love the sound ❤
Just installed mine today no more cutting required. Simple as ABC and works perfectly.
Just installed one on my 2012 RAM 1500. The new hose fitting doesn't require you to cut the hose anymore. Fit right in perfect!
What bracket did you use for the heat shield same ones?
What the factory heat shield for motor messing with hose?
Which hose would u cut?
Thanks a lot for the install, did mine in a little over an hour, looks great and had no issues!
Happy to hear you got it installed without any issues! Thanks for watching! -Zach
To add to my last comment I have 2013 ram 1500 sport and the performance with it is awesome thanks
For anyone using this video as a guide to install, there is no need to cut the provided tube. There is a new process for fitting the tube in the newer kits provided by K&N. Refer to the instruction manual for directions
God I wish I read this before following his instructions to cut it
@@Cloudwalker_Exploring tell me about it, I cut it as well
@@Cloudwalker_Exploring @btw6060 - I wish I read this as well because I did the same thing - howvever for anyone that does it, a 2 foot section of 5/8" tubing is what you need to replace it, and you can get it right from any AutoZone or Advance Auto along with two small hose clamps. One of those moments where I wish I had read the directions first before just watching the video and following along with it lol. But its an easy fix and was only $8 for the tubing and 2 small clamps. But thanks for trying to give us the heads up lol
I had a hell of a time getting the barb fittings into the pipe!! Thanks for the video though 🙌
Thank you for watching! -Zach
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls
Just bought a 2009 ram 1500 that came with this filter. Just finished sand blasting the metal case and going to just paint it black again.
I love the roaring sound of the intake when I accelerate.
But it wasn't that easy to install thought 😁😄🤯
At least you got it installed though! Glad to hear you're happy with it! -Zach
Very informative video. I love it! Great job sir!
Thanks a bunch! We always appreciate the feedback! -Zach
AmericanTrucks Ram Because of this video, I was able to throw away the instructions manual because the video was very detailed! I installed the cold intake in less than two hours… You did a very good job!!
Love the video pretty straightforward since my oldest Son likes to work on cars I will let him do it his reward is what ever he wants Probably with that he would want breakfast 😄😄😄😄
Thanks for watching! -Zach
Great video but the K&N kit only came with a screw in right angle for the breather. Used the straight barb and routed the breather down and around the new heat shield. Now time to drive and test it.
I have concerns! I have the same instake but the parts are different! i dont have the small clamps and the hose adapter conected to the intake tube is already un elbow shape!
Great video easy to follow. takes like 2 hours 30 minutes + 😂😂😂
Does not cutting the hose, and making a longer tube cause the air intake to decrease the amount of power output?
Nice video, you could turn it on after to install!
Thanks for the video its really helpful.
😀
Thanks for watching! -Zach
Installed on my 2018 1500, improved overall mpg by 2mpg. 65mph on interstate I'm getting 23mpg. 55mph-27mpg
My sensor is different from that. Mines a short stubby one , not the long needle looking one. And now I have a check engine light So which one would I buy to replace. Cause the long one and short one pull up when I search it. It’s a 2012 ram Rt 1500
I’m looking to buy a K&N for my 2014 ram what would be the best one gains wise? Thanks in advance
Thanks for your video very helpful I did it step by step paused as I needed life saver only problem is the hose trick with the elbow didnt work out for me without a kink in hose so I had no choice but to cut my stock one thank god I had a dremel made it so much easier but everything else worked out great
Thanks again 👍
Hey Anthony I’m installing the cold air intake on my truck now the crank case ventilation reroute that k and n provided kinda works but I’m a little worried about it pinching while I’m driving do you have a picture of what you did when you cut the stock tube "
@@415sparky9 sorry no I dont all I did was eye it up
In the video I followed his directions when it came to what he says what size to cut hose that what I did I used that hose part cut the stock and connected it
U gotta do it kinda on the fly like make up as you go
But dont cut to short also I think I used some of the factory better hose to make it work
Hope this helps I dont have picture and not have my truck today in my charger sorry
@@415sparky9 from what I remember I think its 11 inch hose says to.cut 5 inches off I believe I might be mistaking but I used what ever end lined up best and cut the factory with a dremel clamped it and it was done
I had to cut the stock vent hose 8 inches back , then added the rubber hose with the elbow then another 4 inches up to the tube . The stock plastic vent tube ran way past the K&N housing so it needed to be cut . I also had a problem with the rubber hose provided inside diameter. I just about blew a nut pushing and pounding the elbow on even using a bit of soapy water . No need for a clamp . Anyway , it’s in and I’m satisfied. With having installed a flowmaster American Thunder muffler my 19 Ram 1500 5.7 means business. Just one more mod to do for now is the throttle body from a stock 80MM to a 90
I have a weird question I have one installed on my 2013 outdoorsman it looks dirty how do I clean it or do I replace it?
So I’m confused, are you supposed to use an 8mm socket for this? 🤔
Sorry no offend but never ever 44+hp with air intake alone.
Hi, I'm wondering what diameter hose that is and how long so I can purchase it before getting the truck in the shop.
I need the barb fitting, anyone know where and what size I need ?
Fit and finish is great. I can feel the power difference. My issue is that when I'm pulling my trailer uphill and getting into the higher rpms, it feels and sounds like the power falls flat on it's face for a couple seconds and then kicks back up. Then repeats multiple times. Any thoughts? I haven't reprogrammed the truck. I don't have a programmer.
Reinstall the factory filter. This shit is fake.
But it blows hot air is that still ok ?
Hello I need that extension wires for that sensor where can I get it
I wish I had watched this before starting my install, because I had already cut the crankcase breather tube beforehand per the K&N directions.😢
What is the part number on that filter? I cant find one
Does K&N have a closed system? Anyone ever get moisture/water into their their system while off roading??
Has anyone else had the problem where the Allen bolts do not fit and the heat shield will not stay on or am I just doing it incorrectly
I’m not sure which intake to get this ones cheaper, does the plastic intake tube make a difference or is it the same as the metal one that comes in the other kit?
You mean a difference besides aesthetics? Generally, plastic won't conduct as much heat to the inside of the intake tube, but the series 77 does produce more power than series 63, so intake tube material is probably more of a visual difference than performance. The size and curvature of the tube itself makes a bigger difference in these kind of applications. Use-case will help determine that as well -- repeated runs at a drag track will especially prefer the better-insulated intake tubes.
My kit didn't come with most of this. I made it work but I need to go buy 3 of those small clamps. What size are they?
Mine didn’t come with those little clamps either , what the hell K&N ? I bought the clamps at the local hardware store . You can tell by eye what size to use and bring the hose with you if you really want to make sure.
Two questions : 1. I've got a 2018 Ram 2500 with the 5.7... Any difference in the install between 1500 and 2500? 2. Does the intake increase MPG, or just add more HP? Anyone?
More horse more gas unfortunately
I’m assuming those gains were after a tune and exhaust… never seen a cai bump numbers like that on a stock motor without a tune
Thats what I was thinking. 40 horse power from an intake alone would be insane
Interesting that the graph only starts at 3500rpm... What is happening below 3500rpm?
That's a good eye. Probably no gain or negative down low.
Open air design, I would expect you will need to clean the filter element more often but at least you can visually see it easily.
Mine kept coming without the rubber coupler 😑
Which one is better k&n or s&b air intakes?
They both make extremely solid intakes, you can't go wrong with either! -Zach
Hi does anyone know where I can buy the air temp sensor harness extension separately. For a 2014 Ram 1500 5.7. Thanks.
Check reviews and they state works for yr truck and engine
I did this MOD but now my O2 sensor keeps tripping my engine light to come on. Anyone else have this issue?
Check for air leaks here if your install looks like his, 13:40 incorrect way to install hose on the intake. Hose too big and not on barbs, Clamp where it is may not seal properly and risk squeezing off. Bigger barbed fitting or smaller hose needed here. I hope he checked all those clamps with hand tools afterwards.
Are you supposed to disconnect the negative battery cable ?
Dang! your question is similar to my worries as well. Is this Airflow Kit *Smog* *Test* Legal when I'm taking care of business for the *DMV* ?
Lou Indorato I’m sure you already installed by now but you don’t have to. K&N says do it (just for a precaution) but you don’t have too.
Compared to the S&B this looks a little cheap. Does the K&N work better?
Why do u see comments about people installing this cold air intake and they say it causes a code...engine light comes on......
Haha! Bet they forgot to push that dang heat sensor stem unit into the big tube hole.
@@designertjp-utube exactly....lol
Where can i get the crank ventalation hose and temperature sensor
Mopar
Would this be the ssme for a 2019 ram 1500 classic???
Yes it would it's the same thing as the 2018 just with a classic badge on it .
I thought the 5.7 had 395hp out of the box ???
With a tuner
I have a 2015 single cab, short bed 5.7. 395HP, 410LBs. Stock.
To the crank yes not to the wheels
WARNING: The new kits by K&N DO NOT REQUIRE CUTTING the hoses provided.
Will this same cold air intake work on a 3.6 ram?
Will it ?
@@lildruggy8063 no.
Has anyone ever broke the sensor? I broke mine and now I cant get the new one in the tube..... Help lol
Dude.. i just broke mine trying to get it in. The tolerance is waaaay to tight. that should slide in with pretty much minimal force. K&N should figure this out. Getting the plug in there was even tough.
Is this better than the Blackhawk ?
I think the only difference between black hawk and the regular one is the color of the filter I do some more research for you I let u know what I come up with
I just looked at other videos about black hawk difference is black clamps black filter aluminium tube I think performance will be the same in either one you choose good luck
Will this work on the 2019 ram 1500?
No, mounting locations are completely different.
Justin Hommel how come the part numbers match?
@@Snakes709 that is a good question. Maybe I'm wrong then. I can look into it today.
Would probably fit the 2019 Ram 1500 Classic.
I have the 7 series but had to finesse the chrome hose into the hoses but it fit my 19 1500 classic
Will this trip my check engine light?
You'll be able to install this guy without any issues or check engine lights! -Zach
Why is your hp lower then mine? I got 395hp stock on my 2013 ram, ur not even running 300 with the intake
The oldest and dumbest question that everyone asks when theres a dyno sheet
Read the directions it’s much more helpful he’s using parts that are not in the kit at all
Hmmm, that hose over the barbed fitting looks terrible, makes me question the whole kit. Hose was way oversized for that fitting. U had to tighten it onto the nut part of the barb..... that ain't right...
What are all the benefits? performance is affected?
A cold air intake like this will include a high flow filter and smoother intake tube, this will allow your motor to draw in more air easier. Kits like this will give you more throttle response and torque on the low end and a little more horsepower on the high end of your RPM band. -Zach
AmericanTrucks Ram 👌
13:40 incorrect way to install hose on the intake. Hose too big and not on barbs, Clamp where it is may not seal properly and risk squeezing off. Bigger barbed fitting or smaller hose needed here. I hope he checked all those clamps with hand tools afterwards.
Could you still put in a 4.7 hemi ??
There’s no such thing as a 4.7 hemi. And no you can’t put that particular intake on the 4.7. You need to find one just for the 4.7. Not the 5.7 hemi
How come this truck made less than 300 HP at max?
400hp is tested at the motor, dyno test at the wheels... there is alot of loss through the drivetrain. So they are just showing real world gains at the wheels..
Why is this better than the factory air intake?
Better airflow
But why wouldn’t they go ahead and make a better one in it already?
@@chrisalbritton5026 government requirements
@@chrisalbritton5026 Factory air intakes provide a quieter ride and less engine noise in the cab. These provide more power at the cost of sound quality.
And that solely depends on the individual, some prefer more engine noise 😎
I’m confused now I thought the 5.7L came with 395 hp
It does! Drivetrain loss changes that number when you measure it at the tire though. -Zach
I wouldn’t discard your stock shit, that’s just nuts.
I thought 5.7 ram has 395 hp????
395 at the engine, when they run the,m on the dyno its HP at the wheels which will always be lower than what the manufacture claims the HP is
For Model Year 2013 and later, yes, at the flywheel. Of course, every dyno is different -- some correct for altitude, temperature, and so on.
To the crank, 395hp under optimal conditions, air temp, fuel quality, altitude. The drive train normal equates to a 15-30% loss from these number. The number on the dyno sheet are to the wheel, which is a measurement including the losses that the vehicle puts to the ground.
@@jamesrodgers8320 4x4's are worse with the transfer case sadly
this is the biggest lie ever lol
Don’t switch to these BS CAI systems whatever the brand ! It’s just useless.
Keep your original air box and replace with a good air filter from Green, K&N, JR any reputable brand.
You will get better results !
Waste of money! The maintenance on that filter is expensive and time consuming! Don't waste your money. It does not improve horse power!
Expensive ? You just have to rinse and wash it out with cleaner and re oil it like once or twice a year. Lol. The kit with cleaner and new oil is like $20 and it'll last forever
this is the most pointless video of all time
