AFE Intake

Buckfat · Jul 19, 2016

AFE now has the 6.4 Hemi CAI on their website.

Glad to see it's enclosed, but would have like to see an additional snorkel added somewhere. For close to $500 I'd also like to have seen at least some test/dyno data. But at least it's something new

$500! I'm keeping my 30 dollar lows fix ahaha. By the way leveled truck today. So worth 275!!!

I see it mates up to the factory snorkel.

The real value of this is the smooth tube, the open filter and the direct air flow path to the throttle body.

I really liked the AFE I had on my MegaCan. I might just have to get this for mine.

It will be interesting to see some test for sure.

Crap, I was really hoping for an open unit. I know a real CAI is enclosed and it performs better but I really want to hear that intake. I had an open aFe on my 300s and it sounded mean!

Lame. The factory snorkel is a hydrolock waiting to happen.

That should be easy to fix.

It should be, especially for $500.

Before computers intake mods did something - today the computer manages the air/gas mixture.

Save you money.

how much would we honestly gain in HP/torque with this thing. the factory air box doesn't look to bad does it?

Bigdaddy · Jul 21, 2016

Yeah I agree want kind of gain will you get, because before I folk out $500 I can buy me another AR15.

I know I am gonna get some booo's here but I have the K&N & I think it sounds really mean on my 6.4 2500 & on my 3.6 Durango. When the MDS kicks in on the 6.4 it sounds almost like a Jake Brake on a semi. Doesn't bother me like some other folks on here. On my truck it sounds great but feel it gave very little in the seat gains & only a quarter to half mpg gain. I added the hardware store 3" tube to the grille that others have done here & feel it added just a little bit more power but seen no additional mpg gains.
Now on my Durango I could tell a noticeable difference in power & averaging about 1 mpg gain. Neither are significant enough to justify the price but it's my money & it's something I wanted to do.

I'm going to get bigger boos when I say - if those add-ons produced the MPG gains you got; mfgs would do them. That the mfgs don't do those mods tell me that there isn't any mpgs gains.

The computer determines the air/fuel mixture and thereby the mpg.

Let's recap:

-No change in airbox location
-Same intake location in fender prone to water intrusion
-Similar or worse air filtration to OE
-No useable improvement of HP
-No noticeable improvement of fuel economy
-Increased intake noise
-$500

These should sell like hotcakes.

I took a look last week and the 6.4L CAI was on the AFE website, checked today and it was gone....

Same here. Might not be ready for prime time and they pulled it back.

So, does anyone know what happened to the intake that they had on the site? It was there for what seemed like a few days and now it's been gone for 5 months!
