Anyone running the K&N intake on the 6.4 ?

I can't figure out from any of the pictures how it's getting fresh/outside air.

Yeah that motor takes up so much room it doesn't seem to be a good spot for the CAI. My old Dakota I was able to extend & move the filter to an area right behind the passenger side headlight. With the gaps around the headlight & also drilled some extra holes & was able to bring in more fresh air. Have to see have I will configure this once I get my truck. First mod will be step bars for the ma ma to get in.

mine comes tomorrow. will post my thoughts when i have time to install. 2 friends - one with a magnum, and one with a durango both said 2 mpg increase alone with no other mods to their vehicles. i didnt buy this truck for mpg, but thats a nice bonus, along with a little torque and the " noise. " cheers!

Please do I have a coupon to order it for $244! Expires in a couple days! Grab a beer and call in sick at work to install that sucker. Then test it after you're sober of course! Lol

I've had mine on since early December. Easy install. Don't know about additional power but looks cool. Butt dyno says more power, but little if any. Makes some noise when hammering on the loud pedal, but I also have a Spintech Muffler without a resonator, so that's obviously not an issue with me.
Just did a 3k mile trip from Spokane to AZ and back with no complaints. On the way back I pulled an 18 foot trailer with a Fridge Truck loaded on it, and had no issues.

Did you notice any mpg increase? You truck looks sharp!

I honestly don't pay attention to the MPG, as my company gives me a gas card. EVIC showed 9.5 on the way back, at 75mph with a trailer for 1500 miles, I'm good with that. But i'm sure 10 guys can chime in to say that the EVIC is BS.
Thanks for the kind words on the truck.

This might have to be my next mod here very soon....

Your friends didn't gain 2 mpg's. From intake, headers, exhaust, and tuner sure, but not from just an intake swap.

TheOPWK when installing this do u use factory box or a piece of? Thought I read some where that u do

The lower portion of the airbox, yeah. It stays bolted in the truck. You only replace the top portion with the heat shield, filter, and the tube.

Lets keep it friendly! All I care about is this intake lol.

 

[Underarock13]

Maybe y'all should donate for me to buy this so I can test it and tell y'all if it's worth it lol.... Still no sure...

With the way Ram has designed theirs going into the wheel well to grab cold air do any of you think the kit is worth the purchase? Would a drop in K&N be very close to the same performance? Ram's tube is flex plastic which might not be the smoothest air delivery & the cone filter might give more surface area to grab air? $50 compared to $250 what do you all think?

 

[reloaderguy]

I'd be interested in the K&N if I could dump the metal enclosure and shorten the intake tube. The fender inlet is a hydrolock waiting to happen and I want to use the air box location for a battery.

I have been considering getting just the drop in k&n, thoughts anyone?

if you're going to do that just get the AEM dryflow filter. Which I believe is actually made by K&N anyway. At least then there's no chance of oil getting on a sensor.

Replaced mine with an AEM at 30K miles(dirty!). Made zero difference in anything you can feel or hear. Not that I think it should have, but don't expect anything from a simple air filter swap.
