K&N 57-1561 Performance Air Intake System for 2009-2018 Ram 1500 5.7L V8
The K&N 57-1561 Performance Air Intake System delivers more airflow to the 5.7L HEMI V8 engine in 2009-2018 Ram 1500 models including Laramie SLT Sport ST TRX Big Horn Express and more. This cold air intake replaces the factory air filter and tube with a roto-molded HDPE intake tube and oversized high-flow air filter for guaranteed horsepower and torque gains. A custom heat shield blocks engine bay heat while the washable filter needs service only every 100000 miles under highway conditions.
Key Features
- High-Density Polyethylene Tube: Roto-molded HDPE design increases intake volume and airflow to the engine for dyno-proven power gains.
- Washable High-Flow Air Filter: Oiled cotton media in oversized conical shape provides superior filtration and lasts up to 100000 miles between cleanings.
- Custom Heat Shield: Protects incoming air from underhood heat to maintain cooler denser air charge for better performance.
- Easy Installation: Bolts on in 60 minutes or less using basic hand tools with no cutting or permanent modifications.
- Lifetime Limited Warranty: Backed by K&N No-Hassle Lifetime Limited Warranty and will not void your vehicle warranty.
