Installing a S&B Cold Air Intake onto my 2021 Ram 2500 with the 6.7L Cummins. First reaction? Can definitely hear the turbo and engine brake more! Whatcha think?

I always ran cold air intakes on my trucks. I’ve noticed better throttle response better sound and better mpg. Not only that it makes the engine bay look nicer! 👍
Yes..S&B all the way. Awesome. Throttle was definitely noticeable and keeping the side panel off you can hear that turbo clear as day.
I'd like to add, if anyone has problems with check engine lights, it was probably because they didn't disconnect the negative battery cable before they unplugged the sensors and that is what caused the issue. Disconnect the cable, then gently disconnect your sensors and be careful with them, I wrapped mine in clean rags as I removed them. Perform the installation, yes getting the filter on the end of the tube with the filter in the air box is a pain in the ass, but have a small flat blade screwdriver available to help get the last of the filter lip over the tube. After that its pretty easy.
Here's some recommendations:
If you even think you might be close to needing to change your serpentine belt, do it while you have the box out. Per alldata, you should remove the airbox to change the belt anyway. I have a 2020 Ram 3500 and I wish I would have thought about doing that when I did my install. As far as sound goes, I rarely hear the turbo but I definitely have a deeper growl with the engine brake, but I do tow a lot with my truck.
Thank you. Researching to add this system in my truck tomorrow and this was very helpful.
This truck’s looking good! Looking forward to all the content!
Take the hood insulator pad off for even more sound.
Thanks for the video. Besides sound the whole idea with a new air intake is cooler air temperatures. I am wondering what the temp reading differences from stock to your S&B are? Can you please give us the Intake Air Temp readings? Thank you
I just ordered this S&B intake for my 22' 3500 cummins. I've never had one on a diesel before, but always installed the K&N ones on my Hemi's in the past. Excited!
Have to take to your service department to find out if this will effect your warranty?
I agree. I could trip my air intake sensor on a new stock air filter just by pulling out and passing on a hill the sensor would trip the dash light to tell me to replace my air intake filter. My S&B filter never does that. So the stock filter is choking your engine plus the cost on a stock air filter is off the chart.
She's a beauty!
Appreciate that!
How many mpg did you pick up after you made the change? I'm VERY satisfied with mine.
Straight from S&B website in the FAQ's section:
Installing an S&B Intake Kit or Filter will not void your vehicle's warranty as long as you properly install and maintain your intake/filter.
It is illegal for a dealership to void your warranty based solely on the fact that you have installed an aftermarket product. Your rights are protected by the Consumer Product Warranties Law, often referred to as the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.
If a dealer threatens to void your warranty, S&B will step in to assist you. "S&B commits that our customers will not be charged for a repair due to the manufacturer denying their warranty claim because of the presence of an S&B intake kit or OE replacement filter. We warrant that using an S&B intake kit or OE filter will not result in the denial of your vehicle’s warranty.
Thanks for making this video..I was kind of on the fence about getting on for my diesel and I think you pretty much sold me on it. If it gets me me more noise I'm in Lol!!
You won’t be disappointed!
More noise. And increase in mpg
I need all the help I can in the mpg game since I'm doing a 10 inch lift on 40's Lol
Sick truck, I recognize that section of 30 anywhere lol, just picked up a 22 yesterday definitely getting some ideas
Hell yeah man I’ll see you cruising around then!!
Dude you forgot to lower it and throw on the spinners.
Hey I need help with my intake I’m having problems with codes saying service exhaust system but I put everything on the same way you did and the sensors how it came on the stock one
Can’t wait to pick up my 22 Dually I’m outside of Pittsburgh/ Monroeville if you know, you know
nashville! you been down here man? id love to see you out in town here , love your videos!
Haha yessir came down a month or so ago for the NATDA trade show! Nashville was a blast! Appreciate the support ✊🏼
Hey thanks for the video. When ordering the intake did you choose the cleanable filter or the dry disposable filter? Thanks in advance.
It’s the cleanable filter.. I know a lot of guys don’t like them, but I’ve been running cleanable filters on a few of the other vehicles and have never had any issues.
@@JohnWargo93 Right on. Yah I like the idea of having the cleanable filter. Thanks again for the video and I look forward to pickin one of these intakes up!
I run mine without the window and get around 13.5 mpg . I put the window and the side plug on and ended up at 12.7 mpg. Only difference is more throttle response with the window but I hear the turbo n all that the same 🤷🏽♂️
I got a 2022 as soon as they get the tunes released for it I’m deleting mine I wonder if they fixed the head issue with them on my earlier 6.7 I blew the head and the fuel plug due to increased pressure all I had was a H&S mini max on it
S&b is an awesome product I have one on my 5.3 TB
Well I know what I’m about to be getting for my new 2500 haha
Well worth it in my opinion!
Bro u need to hold the camera straight..... After so many clips we get dizzy and then comes your interesting videos and my shits all blury
Great video. Question any engine light with this setup
Appreciate it. I’m 6K miles into it, never a light 🤟🏼
So im stuck between this one and banks options as well as other banks parts, any recommendations?
Frickin awesome
I live in Florida would recommend covering the box or leaving it open? And great video thank you I have a 2019 2500 6.7
Florida I’d probably plug the box up just because of the heat 🥵
@@JohnWargo93 thank you for the information and quick response..
beautiful truck!! what kind of mpg you getting on it?
If I daily it I’m averaging 17ish… get 21 on longer highway trips
Yeah, I’ll be ordering one just for the noise.
I don’t see any reason why this wouldn’t fit my 2022 6.7..
Ram didn’t change anything engine wise 21-22 so I’d imagine you’ll be good to go!
Hello,
Any updates of you 2022 with the intake?
@@anthonyvp22 - Install was simple and it makes more noise 😀 Seems to have better throttle response and I haven’t experienced any issues.
My wife has a 21 Ram Rodeo 2500 Diesel. I've got a question about these cold air intakes from BANKS and S&B. I understood from your video about the intake baffle and the directional air it provides to the turbo, and that if the baffle is removed then air displacement to the turbo is deficient and causes stress on the bearings. These two brands eliminate the baffle, so are these causing possible harm to the turbo? Your comments are greatly appreciated.
Oddly enough, the 5th Gen trucks don’t even have that come baffle that the previous generation trucks did.. I was surprised myself. Must’ve done away with it at some point. I feel like 80% of diesel truck guys run a cold air intake without any issues. Mines been golden thus far 👌🏼
Did it throw any codes?. I saw a couple videos where people had issues with codes
No sir, I’m about a month in with maybe 2000 miles and no codes so far ✌🏼
i seen that S&B has redesigned the down pipe with a baffle to replicate the factory intake. the ones that were throwing codes did not have the baffle in them .
When you clean the filter, can you just take the clear cover off and the filter will fit through that window? Or do you have to take the hole box out?
It fits through the window 🪟
Anybody who says that the factory air intake is better than the aftermarket air intake has never talked to Gail Banks or seen his videos they're very ignorant...
John, do you leave the baffle in when installing the cold air intake? Or it's completely removed?
Gets completely removed. The new piping from the intake goes directly into the turbo
@@JohnWargo93 thanks buddy - waiting on fedex and then its going in!
@@JohnWargo93 bro - you weren’t lying! Turbo screams! 😎 but i had to take the whole intake assembly out, I thought I could just squeak the box in without doing that but not enough room.
You have the bigger gauge cluster screen but I have the fancier radio .. whaaa
How so?
they have two different radios system
@@destiny1901 3 actually… the smaller “tradesman” style one, the 8.4” screen I have, and then the full 12”… I was just asking what Mr. Davis was referring to when the video is about a CAI system and whatnot. Also, maybe he means speaker system? Which would be false because I have the upgraded Alpine 9 speaker system with sub.
@@JohnWargo93 just now seeing but i also have the alpine system etc but you have the bigger gauge cluster but mine just has the fancier head unit ( gloss finish around it ) just trying to figure out why bc I really want that gauge cluster set up lol
Hey John, I have been hesitant to install mine since getting it in. My dealer was back and forth about whether I could do it, got two different answers, asking two different people in the service department. Have you had any issues with it effecting your warranty or them denying you warranty work?
Hey man! Honestly I’m not sure.. I voided my warranty long ago now with the weight loss. However, I’ve run intakes on a lot of my other vehicles as well. Best bet is if you added one, swap it back out to the OEM intake for warranty service. I did that once with my Silverado when I took it in for some recalls. Sucks to do the extra work, but worth it so they don’t say anything about it! Lol
@@JohnWargo93 Right on, yeah, mine is too new to be voiding anything lol. S&B is going to send me info to help me with my decision. So I reckon we shall see.
@@kansasjake1223 I’m pretty positive that S&B went through tons of lawsuits to prove that a CAI will not and should not void a manufacturer warranty. Might be something about it in their website.
@@JohnWargo93 there is, I'm just torn because regardless of what the law says, they cab just tie you up in court if they really want to, then you just lose no matter what lol.
Looks like it’s been a couple months with the S&B, still no codes?
Yessir, still no codes, no issues to date 👌🏼 not sure if I mention mileage in this video but I’m coming up on 12,000 right now present day.
Thanks for the post.
Off topic, but my 2020 has never given me that regen notification in the center dash. It has 30k miles so I know it has regen'd but never recieved notification? Thoughts?
It’ll only give you the notice if you’re on the “DPF Filter” screen!
@@JohnWargo93 Thank you
what do i buy? DRY or WET? what would sway my decision?
I always buy the wet filter. I think it’s more of a preference more than anything. I treat it like my dirt bikes, oil the filter and let it catch the dirt.
What tires and rims do you run?
@@ChunkyBoyzFishing in this video those are 22x12” TIS 544s and 33x12.50 Radars
Nice truck man and thank you for the video. Im sold. Ordering now. lol
Appreciate the support! Glad I can help! Don’t think you’ll regret the decision!!
What’s the update? Any check engine lights?
Update is good. Trucks at 16k miles now. No issues or lights 👌🏼
Did you disconnect the battery to do that?
I did, yes sir
What off set are your wheels i have 20x10 wheel with a -24 off set
These are a -44 offset
Nice! Did you notice more sound with the windows up too?!
I think you hear more sound with the windows up in general actually.. with windows down you can definitely here some but you also hear a lot of wind noise!
Under the hood nothing is cold how they can call it cold air intake 😂,,,the best way to try 'em is not only by talking but putting it on a dyno b4 and after,,
Question can the front engine bay shroud that sit above the radiator in front fit on a 2021 1500 Rebel I want to get that ram air scoop that you have e
I’m not too sure how the engine bay is setup on the 1500s to be honest 🤔 Sure someone on a Facebook group for Rebels will be able to answer that for ya!
@@JohnWargo93 yeah probably I don’t Facebook tho lol. All good I just ordered a radiator upper seal tonight and going to just try it out. If anything maybe I will be able to mod it some to use if not just another part to add to my list of parts for m trying to sell . Thank for replying. I’d just like to take full advantage of the S&B box air intakes it has. Not to much of a fan of just open filtering it in the engine bay either. To much heat even tho the box can trap some and not to meantion the intakes don’t really add that much just help with sound
Before the delete other than sound did you notice any difference?
Yeah you could hear the engine break more and some more turbo noice in the cab. Not crazy though. A normal person not listening for it probably won’t recognize it. You will though listening for it.
@@JohnWargo93 any gains other than sound?
@@spaniky73 eh the only way to get proper HP and TQ gains is to tune the truck for it. Can be placebo, but I felt like throttle response and turbo spool were both a little quicker. I do them on all my trucks. Have a video on RUclips with my Silverado with a few hundred thousand views showing the data before and after the intake. Gained almost 2mpg with the gas truck after adding a CAI. No crazy gains on the Cummins though.
@@spaniky73 ruclips.net/video/QdlHHAlg_k8/видео.html
@JohnWargo93 Thank you. That is what I was looking for. I plan to buy a 5th Gen HO dually later this year. My current truck is a modified 3rd gen 5.9. Just trying to see what kind of Non warranty voiding mods are doing to these trucks.
Does installation ruin warranty?
No sir. Throw one on all of my vehicles. S&B actually has a team of lawyers who fight dealerships if they try to claim that it does. Also…. Can always swap it out for the stock box if it needs to go to the dealership to be safe ✌🏼
Nice
Did you notice any mpg gain?
It could be placebo… but normally every vehicle I put these on it seems like a gain about 1mpg on average. This is the same thing.
How does the high idle sound with the intake?
Gotta be honest, I did the intake and then 2 weeks later deleted the truck.. so I’m not entirely too sure just with intake. Never went into it when I just had it itself. Check out 2nd to latest video on the channel with high idle and delete! Either way, I take is worth it in my opinion. For sound alone! But can’t complain about the better throttle response and slight gain in fuel mileage!
@@JohnWargo93 i bet it’ll sound like a jet ready to take off 😁
Is there a change in power or feel during regen?
Nope.. never was able to feel it. Just can hear it and smell it
@@JohnWargo93 how often does regen happen
@@brettlynch2707 maybe once every thousand miles or so
No way its 1000. More like 325-350 average running empty. Maybe 500 if towing and under boost and temps up.
you got better mpg or the same ?
After driving about 500 miles, seems that I gained about 1mpg in total
More sound. More mpg. I'm doing it. 22 cummins.
Void warranty?
This one, no
Sleek!
any cons on doing this
Nothing that I’m aware of!
Is this truck deleted?
It is now. Yes. Wasn’t at the time of this video.
What year truck and at what mileage did it go on a diet?
🤣 says 2021 in the title and I mention it a few times 😝 did it at 8k miles 🤙🏼🤙🏼
You got to stop moving the camera around so much and so fast.
Mine is packed with snow anytime I drive through snow.
Dode junk engineering.
Never again
What are you talking about packed with snow. What is
