K&N Performance Air Intake Kit 63-1561 with Lifetime Red Oiled Filter for 2009 Dodge Ram Pickup Truck 1500 2500 5.7L V8

Passgenauigkeit und Ableitung sind sehr gut. Einbau war kein Problem. Klingt ordentlich. Mehrleistung stelle ich nicht unbedingt fest. Ist mir aber auch relativ egal

After installing the K&N Cold Air Intake Kit, my RAM gained approximately 247 HP (according to my dynosense) and now makes aggressive "PSSSHHHH" sounds that let everyone at the gas station know I'm a serious racer. The installation was easy enough that even I managed it without breaking anything important, and now my engine breathes like a yoga instructor while making my wallet feel lighter — which technically makes the car faster due to weight reduction. The best part is hearing that sweet induction noise every time I floor it to merge onto the highway, convincing myself that the extra 5-10 HP was totally worth it while my passengers ask if something's broken. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who wants their work truck to sound like it's about to challenge a Hellcat at the next stoplight.

I don’t see a change in house power (might be a myth) but does sound better and gives a bit of improvement on torque

Superb noise great stuff and easy to fit

Purchased this for a 2010 RAM 1500, 5.7L HEMI. The package and contents were all in good condition when I received it. No missing parts. Spent about 45 minutes assembling what I could without needing to touch the vehicle. Installing it in the vehicle took about 45 minutes; I would say the estimated 90 minute install time is pretty accurate. No problems with installing it per the instructions, but I did make some notes on the instructions that may help save you some time with your installation. I recommend watching the install video on the MFG website for this product if you want to know how easy it is to install! ►Installation Notes • You don't need to disconnect your negative battery cable to install this kit. Just make sure the key isn't in the ignition switch, i.e. that the ignition is turned OFF. This is a lot easier than writing down all the settings, reactivating radios, etc. This step was only mentioned to prevent the engine controller from reading a fault if power was applied to the IAT sensor while it was disconnected. • I trimmed the crank case vent tube 12 inches and still wound up trimming the provided vent hose (PN 5-4015) about 4 inches in order to install it on the vent -- plenty to spare so don't worry about precisely measuring the crank case vent tube. • Recommend using a tubing/PVC cutter to trim the vent tube, provided vent hose, and the edge trim. This makes the cuts super easy, especially for the hard plastic of the vent tube, and provided the edge trim! The edge trim has a metal insert (clip) in it to help it retain its shape and bite the edge of the heat shield. • The 4mm Allen wrench mentioned in the instructions is used on the M6 button head screws only. You will need a 3mm Allen wrench (not listed) for the M5 button head screws used to assemble the heat shield. • The zip-tie provided to secure the IAT extension harness is not long enough to go around the intake tube so plan on having some extra zip-ties handy. I used four (4), 8 inch zip-ties (two attached to each other to make two bands to secure the extension harness to the inlet tube. ►Performance Results There was nothing truly remarkable about the this intake when I started it up after the install. However, the results were immediately apparent when I took it for a test drive. The difference in the sound of the engine when accelerating is definitely noticeable, and truly amazing! You can tell right away that she can breath better with this intake because the sound of her HEMI rumble tells you so!! There was definitely a noticeable increase in HP, which I expect is around the value of the K&N test results (+15 HP). It is too early to say how much it will improve fuel efficiency, especially since it sounds so good...it'll be hard to keep my foot out of it! From what I found doing some research, most people see a 1.5 to 2 MPG increase in their fuel efficiency.
