Better flowing intake for 5.7 w/Ecodiesel lower airbox

[HEMI_Finn]

I checked with my local dealer and I'm at $83 +tax and at the links OP posted, with s/h I'm at $83. Anyone find a better deal or have a coupon code?

Hell, my shipping cost $30 from the links posted. I ended up paying $121 total for the box, air duct, filter and shipping.

Im all for trying the bigger inlet/cut 5.7 box idea!
Hows it stay in place on the box? I just got my 2016 and not looking at it right now.....
I did however add my afe pro dry filter from my 2008, seems to be a good flowing washable filter.

Got mine done. Just a note though.... On mine it had a foam seal on the inner fender. The new snorkel has a much thicker "lip" around the inlet than my stock one. I had to grind it down to about 1/4" to match the stock one to get it to go in there. Without trimming it down, it was mashing the crap out of the foam and distorting it.

Now I'm thinking... Was I supposed to remove the foam? Either way, it's in there and it's all good now.

1st pic. The 3.0 Diesel airbox and un modded snorkel.
2nd pic. The thickness of the lip on my factory 5.7 snorkel.
3rd pic. How it fits now after trimming.

it just snaps in place and the tabs hold it in there. Pretty solid too.

There are tabs on each side of the inlet tube that lock into opening of airbox.
If you zoom in on this pic you can see the one on the top where inlet tube connects to box!

Maybe try eBay? Quirkparts on eBay has free shipping often...

 

[HEMI_Finn]

I ended up at amoparstore.com and was $68.68 - shipping was $10, that's a hell of a lot better than $26!

Orders over 50 can use a free shipping coupon code on allmoparparts.

I don't know if Benny wants that code broadcasted but I can PM it.

It would've been nice to know that earlier!

Sorry. Just double checked and it does indeed work. Brings the cost of this down to $58 for me.

Thanks,

Tossed my new one in yesterday! Simple and quick little mod. I like it.
Funny thing is I ordered my intake box and tube from ebay... I received THREE intake boxes and one tube!! So....
Now I have two extra boxes!...

Give us a review of it if you get the chance, esp. if any mpg gain/loss and noise difference!
Ok, I guess you can throw in any butt dyno changes Lower rpm, mid and upper rpm changes.
thanks!

 

[Georgiasport]

What did it end up costing you from eBay?

 

[Matts175]

I, personally, saw zero change in the butt dyno. My engine is bone stock though... not even a tuner. I'm not disappointed though. I'm sure it'll make more of a difference when I start adding some bolt ons.

So did anyone else have to trim that "lip" like I did?

This seems like a no brainer but any negatives doing this?
