Product Description

The K&N 50-1561D NextGen Dryflow Cold Air Intake is a full air intake upgrade engineered specifically for Dodge/Ram trucks equipped with the 5.7 L HEMI V8 - model years 2009-2024 (including 1500, 2500, 3500, and 1500 Classic variants). By replacing the restrictive factory airbox and intake tube with a high-capacity, flow-optimized HDPE tube and a large synthetic Dryflow filter, this system substantially increases airflow to the engine - translating into stronger throttle response, improved low-end torque, and noticeable horsepower gains even without tuning.

Beyond performance, the Dryflow filter's oil-free, washable, reusable design makes maintenance cleaner and simpler compared to traditional oiled filters - just rinse and reinstall. The included semi-enclosed airbox helps draw in cooler, denser air while protecting against engine-bay heat, improving combustion efficiency. For anyone looking to wake up the HEMI's performance with a bolt-on mod that's easy to install (typically under 1 hour), 50-1561D offers a compelling balance of power, convenience and long-term durability.

WARNING: Fitment Note: Before purchasing or installing, verify your truck's year, engine (5.7 L HEMI), and model (Ram 1500/2500/3500 or 1500 Classic) to ensure compatibility. This intake kit is not legal for sale or use on pollution-controlled vehicles in some states (e.g. California). Installation requires basic hand tools and proper hose-clamp torque.
