6.4l cai

[Blazin383]

I'd be happy to do that if anyone could make a system that increases HP/TQ in the 2,000 - 3,000 rpm range, but it seems like the only gains from the CAI systems is in the 5,000 rpm range and that just doesn't offer any gain where I need it. In fact, If I remember correctly the system offered by K&N actually showed a loss of HP/TQ from the factory air box in the lower rpm ranges.

Hey guys I sent my requests over to AFE over the weekend. They got back to me and have sent a couple emails back and forth between them. They said they are gaining interest and like the fact that there is only one other competitor right now for it. I am only about 30 minutes from them and they asked me if I will be interested in them using my truck for the r&d so I of course said yes. Keep on sending inquiries so we can get them going. Last I heard he was going to check with the r&d to see when they have time.

Any news? I just ordered a Trinity so I'm gonna be needing that CAI!!!

I would think these other companies would see the demand for K&N's & be throwing out there designs. K&N got a bunch made up & now a week & a half later they are showing sold out again.
I got one & there is just not much design to them. Viking re-engineered his & this looks like the path they should have run this. I will be doing something very similar when I get a minute.

...Viking re-engineered his...

Are you talking about the 3" ducting to the bottom of the air-box?

Yes

Just got this back from them 20 seconds ago:

Yes sir Ryan, we just had a 2016 Power Wagon leave the shop, we are working on the intake as we speak. Give us about 30-40 days and call me back to order one up. Thanks,

That is outstanding!

This will be good to see what they come up with.

Alternative Ideas for those who can't wait

Not to muck up your thread, but it is a 6.4 CAI thread. If you're impatient like me, and don't want to wait 90 days for something that may or may not come to market, you can purchase the K&N 77-1568KTK ...

... and then replace the filter with a ProDryS from AFE. Yes, additional cost, but no oil being sucked into the intake. I know, I've been avoiding K&N for several years now too. I'm actually surprised and impressed with the plunge I took.

I attached the specs which match the K&N RF-1048 real closely. You can always wait and see too.

That was actually my Plan-B in case aFe didn't come through. That said. I just dropped a bunch of money for a Trinity so I have time to wait...and save. Great idea though, and thanks for the specs!

I can see your 2015 6.4 came with the "humidity sensor" For some reason my 2016 did not come with it & I am working with K&N to get me something to fill that void. If I have time this weekend I am going to make a plate myself out of some scrap aluminum to put on it.
Have you seen Viking's setup? I bought some supplies today to do something very similar to his setup. It can't hurt to get some extra cool air up to the box.

I did see it. I am thinking of some reflectix. I plan on adding the AEV snorkel which should work with this according to another guy on the PW Registrary.

One thing though, this F*er seems 100x louder than the Vaaram I had on the 5.7 1500.

Yeah I am not all that jacked up about how loud it is. I also took off the plastic engine cover for heat dissipation which I am sure dampens some engine noise. So far not impressed with it's performance either.

Anyone contact them yet? I looked on their web site and nothing yet...it's been about 44 days since the quoted post.

 

[MADDOG]

Yeah, it is time to check in with them again. I just sent them an email to ask what's up, if anything, with development of a CAI for the 6.4L trucks.

 

[Buckfat]

Sent them an email yesterday.

 

[Stampederfan]

Received a return email from AFE saying they'd have an intake kit ready for the 6.4 heavy duties by September. For those interested in a possible alternative to the K&N kit.....

 

[MADDOG]

I used an AFE on my 2007 MegaCan with the 5.7L in it and liked it.

I'll be anxious to see what they come up with for my 6.4L!

 

[Bigdaddy]

Yes agree, it will be interesting to see.

 

[PaulB]

I enquired to S&B Filters last week, and received a response yesterday that states they will have a CAI available in September; even gave it a part number 75-5087.
