Your videos have really helped me out lately, I have a ‘13 charger rt with the same exact lifter problem at 114k on the motor. What a shame haha however I’m going with a cam and heads set up from demon performance and can’t wait to get it back. Very cool channel man!
I'm glad my videos are helping you out bro And thanks for hanging out on the channel very Much appreciated. Every mod and repair I do on frostbite I do myself I'm trying to make this channel a very helpful DIY channel for all 5.7 hemi's no matter what the engine is in. Yes it's a shame that Chrysler made such a crapy lifter design but it is what it is. once you upgrade it and go with those hellcat lifters you will make a ton more power and be much more reliable.
Frostbite Ram I’ll definitely post a video or two of it when it gets done, I’m going with the “Chucky Norris” cam, it’s basically a comp 270 just easier to tune. What part of Ga are you from man?
@@colegardner165 I'm in gwinnett county
Frostbite Ram I’m not too far from you, I’d love to meet up one day with you whenever I get my car back, maybe do some runs on motor against each other for your channel.
@@colegardner165 definitely sounds good
A good thing about the mopar performance upgrade is you add value to your vehicle its not considered aftermarket its factory performance.
Exactly
Great video bro and very detailed don't listen to that guy in the comments about you talking too much if you don't articulate you cannot communicate you know what I mean that's what RUclips is for. For people to help each other and relay information anyway great job will be subscribing from now🍺👍
Awesome thanks for stopping by the channel 👍
I'd rather buy this setup than an aftermarket CAI. Pricey but I know it was designed for my truck only. Where can I buy that hood? ADD: Money comes and goes my friend. Work hard and spend it on what you enjoy!
You can get it from mopar performance
That is actually a really awesome intake setup - very big upgrade!
Thanks man I really love it and its mopar 😜
You have inspired me to start modifying my ram rt !!
That's awesome I appreciate you supporting the channel I'm doing my best to put up content and work a full time job lol.
I know this is an older video, but I just picked up a 2022 1500 Built To Serve Edition and the Mopar cold air intake "lower" kit is $944, over double of a K&N or S&B kit. I could not believe the price I was quoted... good video though!
Dang I would look on ebay and Amazon
Most cold air kits 400 dollars and less do not add a lot of hp.
A full function factory ram air hood, along with the pickup from the lower may be worth 800 bucks if you have a high flow exhaust and a tuner.
I cant see any other air kit that would be true ram air.
To you Sir I say thank you, I stumbled upon your channel while looking for something totally not dealing with the Ram. I am glad I stumbled upon you because I said to myself many times that I wished they made an intake system that made the hood vents functional and you have made my day. The price is a bit high but I think I would bite the bullet for that setup. Seeing that it does work very good and add in again that the hood vents aren't just there for show. Thank You Sir & I also subbed for more content on your channel. God Bless
Thanks brother for the support I'm happy the channel helped you out.
What’s the bottom line? Does it improve on the mileage? Better than 14 mpg? Or was that 14 gpm?
Why didn’t they make the rubber tube smooth? With the grooves in it it seems a little inefficient!
I think you will find that the single scoop inlet (especially when shooting nitrous) does not flow enough. Granted it does flow cold outside air but so does the fender inlet. This is why Mopar factory cars always had huge hood scoops. I doubt if both scoops would flow enough. The advantage is that even the small amount of cold air gained is better than none at all, especially when mixed with the air from the fender. I went to a supercharger, which uses an intercooler mounted in front of the radiator, but that is a completely different animal.
Quick question bro I have the kit and I’m getting ready to install but I’m in Ohio and the weather is crazy should I worry about rain or snow going through the vent or will it be fine with just regular maintenance
Not at all
Bro that's a nice setup. I like how it's a 2 way system to get more air flowing in.
Yea, I love the kit plus it's a factory part so fits like a glove.
@@FrostbiteRam what if you have plastic wheel well covers?? it blocks the air. and that little vent on the hood seems too small to get enough air into the air box.
@@berardoferrari gets plenty of air from the fender and hood
Anyone know if the 2500 cold air will fit the1500?
Thanks for all your videos they very informative. I'd like to get some advice on a project I have coming up for my 05 ram 1500 slt. Thanks for your time
Hey I’m very interested in going this route after having the s&b the only thing that stopping me from going this route is could I upgrade the manifold possibly the 6.4 one but could I still use it
How much did the Cai and the ram air scooter run you?
It’s about $933 for both kits for me.
So many ideas. I've been researching for almost three weeks straight. I need to find some custom spots in paulding County 💨💨💨
2 part question Q#1 do you have to get a tune after install cold air intake or can you still keep factory specs? Q#2 does the upper setup allow water or moisture to be sucked into the box and possibly get into the throttle?
No tune necessary and I never had water get in to be a problem its a genuine mopar factory part if it didn't work they wouldn't offer it.
@@FrostbiteRam okay thank you ... i might get me the lower part
What type and year is your Ram? I have the 2019 new body style, 5.7 eTorque. Trying to get a CIA, but I've been told that mopar hasn't released one yet for that year, unless it's the classic. I'm thinking either Mopar or Vararam. And seeing your video, now I'm thinking maybe to cutouts for the hood as well.
Hi,
I had a Vararam intake and in my opinion, it was not worth the money. Negligible performance gains without a tune and really, negligible performance gains over other CAIs.
It didn't fit very well. The filter is really frustrating to attach in the body of the intake. The kit requires that you cut or remove the front sight shield on top of the radiator so the intake scoop can have access to the grille. Bolt holes didn't line up where the scoop attached to the body of the intake. The only thing supporting the weight of the intake is the rubberized tube that sits on top of the throttle body.
My biggest gripe with it was that it looked really junky. The rubber bellows on the bottom of the intake look weird and are obviously a design afterthought. It seriously looked like an unfinished test rig for a future finished product.
I would go with literally any other CAI and a good tune.
Let me ask , with the rt sport hood , don't you get rain and dirt in there ..?? This is the only thing I'm afraid of because I have the mopar instake and mopar exhaust on mine but I'm going to order the hood but wondering if I should order the functional or nonfunctional hood because of the rain and dirt which I. Afraid of
I didn't have any issues at all .
Thank you for the review!
Question:
Mopar Performance Cold Air Kit 5.7L, Part# 77072428AB. Is this the cold air intake that you are reviewing? Thanks.
Any problems with water would it suck in all the rain and car washes
No problems with that
Im getting one thats awesome
Thanks for the honest review. Nice system
Thanks 👍
What’s your take on ported throttle
Or should I just buy bigger throttle from my local parts place
Stock tb is more than enough I'm still using the stock 5.7 bigger is waste of money.
This is the only 15+ second channel intro that I don’t mind
Hot damn hell yea🤘👍👊
Is the other one that nba guy.
Is this cold air intake a good match with the factory exhaust? Or do you recommend after market like corsa or borla?
It works great with either.
go with Carven Competitor system
I will soon be buying a RAM and planned on adding Mopar Accessories. Question - driving in the rain - won't that cause problems with water getting into the box?
No issues at all
So I hear if you install an after market intake you will void the factory warranty. Does using the Mopar intake system protect from that. Been wanting to install one on my RAM.
The Mopar system is a factory part should not void the warranty.
Looks great . but I don't think that 4 in intake would still fit after installation of a supercharger ?? I have a 2014 crew cab Dodge Ram 1500 . no sport hood . I was thinking of letter box the hood for my intake.
Probably not
Do you think the cold air intake and an APM air hood would do well for a 2500 with the 6.4 hemi?
I would think so,probably not huge difference but should help.
“Air can actually ram through the vent” I see what you did there lol
I bought this about 5 years ago. I don't have a sport hood and still don't use the Mopar lid 🤣
Awesome 👍
I got a sport hood now 😂
What u think if I just get the top set up I have a k&n intake but don’t want to spin 500 on the bottom set up just want the hood working
Just drill and mill out your factory scoops with a dremel.
Had a cai in my last truck man it seemed to get the oil dirty quicker after i installed it idk if i wanna do rhat again
This is mopar oem works great
I know it's 2 years old but I just got a 3.6L 2017 Dodge Journey. Would this be a good idea?
I would probably just get a drop in k&n filter for that personally
Thank Upper Kit is BAD ASS!!!!
Did you remove the felt underneath the hood? Does that make it hotter inside the engine???
Yes I did and didn't notice any difference at all.
if you install one of these Mopar kits what happens to that small hose that goes to the box if you have a oil catch can?
It has a hook up for breather
Does a cold intake adds more hp?
Some people say they do and others said no. I’m confused 🫤
Very little but helps the overall setup with other mods
looks nice, but not sure why they used aluminum tube...seems like it'd heatsoak
My cold air. I use vents on top of top of hood. Lots of air and lots of water n salt to
Hello. Great review.
I just ordered mine from local dealer.
Curious if after all this time you would still recommend installing this and for a daily driver.
Thanks.
Definitely this is my favorite cai
hey man, great vid. about to install the ram air hood vent on mine. just wondering : in your vid, about 3:30 , to the right of your cold air you can see some aftermarket wiring or hoses? how do I do that or what did you replace. I like the look. looks clean as hell up under that hood
Perhaps your talking about the nitrous kit wires?
@@FrostbiteRam oh snap! You got nitrous in your ram haha? That's crazy! Cool af though
You ever get rid of this set up (air intake and hood dump) let me know I’ll buy it ASAP
I sold the lower unit and I'm still using the upper for the supercharger it works well with blowing air on the supercharger.
I’d by it too and I don’t even have the truck
I'm sure this has been answered, but I cant seem to find it.
Any issues with rain?
Washing?
No problems with water at all for me.
@@FrostbiteRam
Any issues with it at all?
Check engine light?
Mass airflow sensor?
@@jbirdbson nope fits and works great factory manufactured part
Anyone know where to buy vents that already have the holes open, I know I can drill mine, but rather just buy them.
You can buy the passenger side vent for the kit but for the driver I had to drill mine out.
Frostbite Ram got a link, or name of website, please.
What happens when you drive 4-5 hours in a downpour of rain? There’s no way the filter doesn’t get wet right? Just wondering. Thanks!!!
No problems at all, considering it's Manufactured from mopar I'm sure they thought about that. I've been in plenty of rain never a problem.
Does Mopar make this style intake for the 2020 ram? I can't seem to find one , can only find the upper style for almost a thousand bucks🤷🏼♂️
Not sure on the newer trucks.
Awesome video! Just wondering if you've ever looked at the Vararam air grabber intake? Wondering if it's any better. Massively less expensive. I've looked at your system and the price is the only thing stopping me.
Yes it's good as well but not a factory part. I also like the hood being functional also.
Thats true. Just trying to justify the price. I'm in Canada and the price for me is over a grand for top & bottom so have to think on it a little longer.
Best place to get the lower and upper???
I purchased on ebay.
Nice set up bro all it needs is an oil catch can
Frostbite ram would you say that would be the best intake for the ram trucks in your opinion
It's very expensive, but I believe so and it's a factory mopar performance part.
I have the vararam and it made a noticeable difference even without a tune.
Do you know the part numbers on this Mopar parts
The other hood vent is for heat extraction
I'm running the vararam I like it..
That's a good one also.
Big Joe, what year is yours? I'm looking at a vararam for my 2019. I'm worried about it not fitting.
@@SuperSaiyanX-0014 mine is a 2011 ram RT
That was my thought in a money comparison.
You could get a vararam intake and a ported or bigger throttle body vs. the cost of the complete mopar air intake.
Would been nice and more useful if you started ut so we could hear the difference
Did you had any issues lining up the top part with the bottom box, I bought mine and I can not get it to line up, the reason I'm asking is because I noticed your 4 inch tube looks like is bend?
The top was tricky to get in but it all fits great for me.
This may help you

@@FrostbiteRam I think my box bottom may be a little warped with the heat since I have had it for about 3 1/2 years now(2 years on a 2014 and 1 1/2 on a 2018 Rebel. No matter how I try to rearrange the box it will not line up, I wonder if it has warranty?
@@12ez4U it might but your sure you got the top piece in right.
@@FrostbiteRam I'm sure everything seats and lines up perfectly on the top, especially since I still have the hood liner and I cut the hole with the paper that comes in the installation kit. The hole lined up perfectly with the hood light and the other metal bracket on the side that holds the side of the liner. I'm not sure what else could I adjust on the top.
Where can I buy the mopar cold air and the duct intake 2019 ram classic I’m in Canada and can’t seem to find it anywhere

Really don’t get why they just can’t make “air vents” real and not just some fake “looks” cool part
Do you have a video installing the upper kit?
Will this kit fit a 2021 ram rebel 5.7?? Or do they have a different kit for it??
Should fit fine the hood kit only fits the sport hoods like mine.
@@FrostbiteRam nice brother thank you. Yeah the RT hood. I looked up if they had the hood kit for the rebel hood but no luck 😞
Ram trucks are so awesome!!!
Hell yea🍻
Loving The channel, Hey Frostbite I have the lower mopar intake system for my ram rt, would you say its worth it to buy the upper ram air kit? Been debating if I should pull the trigger or not
If you have the lower already and the sport hood I would for sure
Frostbite Ram Thank You, just pulled the trigger on it, also did the breather tube delete thanks to your video !
@@moralescesar19 you wont be disappointed it's a very good kit,the upper hood kit can be a little aggravating to install but fits like a glove. Thanks for the support with the channel 🤙
@@FrostbiteRam Was there a noticeable difference in performance before and after the upper part was installed.

When it rains, is water an issue?
Nope not at all and drive it alot 🤘
I use my hood vents for clean air. U got sitting in a box. Open it up flow flow brother
I am looking to have my hemi cammed but I can’t find a person around who can install it and tune it. Everyone around me just does Chevy LS engines. I’m in Alabama. Anyone have any ideas on what I should do?
If you bring it to GA I would recommend allpar garage in Lilburn
Frostbite Ram oh my gosh thank you. I just checked out their webpage and they do everything that needs to be done. Thank you so much. It’s only 2hr 40 minutes which isn’t even a bad drive.
@@nathancole9823 no problem bro be sure to tell em I sent you🙏
Frostbite Ram oh yes for sure I will. It will be a bit before I can get down there as I just spent money on other things for my truck I’m doing a race build.
I have a 2014 ram 1500 sport is this any good for it?
It's a great cai kit
Good information 💪
What’s the name of the upper system for good I’m looking for it but can’t find it ?
rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F362598104107
Did it increase your MPG’s
I wouldn't say I could notice but definitely a power increase up top.
I just installed the ram air and it made a big difference one question do u have to take the upper off when I use the lower section
If you have the hood kit then you take off the lid on the lower box to ram air from the hood.
I mean when I'm not racing it do I put the lid back on when I'm daily driving
@@jasonhoover1707 nope no need to
Thanks man ik this intake Is got it dialed in 6.4 heads and manifold is next we going to have to get the twins together ❤
@@jasonhoover1707 awesome 👍
I thought you were saying “sill”, but it was “seal” 😂 Looks like a nice setup!
Good video!
Any idea if it will fit a 2019 Ram Classic with the 5.7?
It should
@@FrostbiteRam How about the 2019 New Body 5.7 with eTorque? My local mopar dealer claims that Mopar has yet to release a CIA for the All new 2019 models.
@@SuperSaiyanX-0014 go to mopars website and they have a 5th gen CAI system available
Great vid! Does it sound different now??
Yes it did make it sound really throaty
Yea I can’t find one for 2020 ram ... ughhh
Can anyone tell me where I can get that black rubber elbow ??
Probably have to check with dealership or mopar parts online.
My question is from the functional sport hood is it any water and dirt come in the air box / filter??
Nope I never had any issues
Frostbite Ram awesome thank you!!! Have you notice any significant HP increase or dyno test? Asking to see if the price can get justified as like the whole set up!! Thanks bro
I'm sure gains would be minimal just like any other cai but atleast this one is mopar made.
Frostbite Ram excellent thank you bro keep up the honest reviews!!!
YES, you do get dust and bug parts, if you didn’t you would never have to clean your filter!
Whats about rain water running through the hood scoop
Not an issue
Does the mpg go up with that system?
Cant say I noticed a difference but it definitely didn't go down.
Not without a tune. The mass air flow sensor adjusts for the increase in air flow.
Great informant video frostbite sir ! I had installed the low mopar cold air intake 4 years ago never had any issues. After seeing your video hearing your opinion on it I’m glad I made the purchase but I have ran in to a problem and wondering if this has occurred to you if you still have yours. I still have some of my mopar air intake filter cleaner but just enough for one more cleaning. For some reason I can’t find the official mopar cold air intake cleaning kit no where on line or either showing out of stock have you ran into that problem and if so can or do the cold air intake filter for changer have a cleaning kit cause I saw 1 video where the guy one installed and the filter looked exactly like my filter same blue color ,size and shape. Thank You it you know any other Sesser to to clean my filter
K&n sells filter cleaner its the same thing.
Thanks for replying back. But from reading Mopar only recommends their cleaning kit. Also K&N air intake filter is black and I think the oil is gonna be black.
Anyway i’ll figure it out I’ll call the dealership tomorrow and see was going on but hey man thanks for replying and give me your info on it have a great start of the new year 2021

Hi. Is this street legal in California? Carb #?
Not sure i would think so its a factory mopar part.
I'm guessing you need a tune with this? Also, what year is that truck?
2011 and no tune needed but you will get the most power out with a tune.
@@FrostbiteRam did you use diablo tuner to tune it?

@@MrHRDGAMER I believe the rt will have better gearing in the rear possibly
Brother I meant no offense by my comment of you going this route because I myself am going to take this route 😆 any way you have any info where I can find the intake and the kit to the hood my truck is 2018
I've seen them on ebay and online mopar parts dealers. Not cheap but worth it. The lower setup is around 500$ and the upper piece is about 300$ however I still have the upper hood kit if intrested i could sell it to you a little cheaper then all you need is the lower setup message me on Facebook or Instagram if intrested.
@@FrostbiteRam ok I will try to look you up on instagram and face book
How much water risk for a daily driver?
I daily mine before I went boosted and had no issues with water.
So do you need the hood and upper kit ?
No its optional
How I can get that intake air system?
Mopar website or eBay has them
What years of rams is this compatible with ?
Any with the hemi and the sport hood pretty much all the 4th gens
@@FrostbiteRam ok but nothing like this for 3rd gens
Cool beans!
I’ve been considering getting one of these. I think I’m going to bite the bullet and expense.
Its definitely a nice piece you will like it.
How does it keep the water out?
The filter is set back away from any drips but I've never had water get on the filter
Will this fit a 2016 Rebel?
Yes should fit fine
Whats the part number for the upper kit?
Not sure any more but ill see if I can find it.
