aFe Momentum HD Cold Air Intake

2020–2021 Jeep Wrangler 3.0L EcoDiesel / 2021–2023 Jeep Gladiator 3.0L EcoDiesel

Part #: 50-70062T

Overview

The aFe Momentum HD Cold Air Intake System with Pro 10R Filter is engineered specifically for the 3.0L EcoDiesel engines found in the 2020–2021 Jeep Wrangler and 2021–2023 Jeep Gladiator models. Designed to replace the restrictive factory intake, this system enhances airflow by 23%, resulting in improved throttle response and increased low-end torque. Ideal for Jeep enthusiasts seeking reliable performance gains without sacrificing durability or emissions compliance, the Momentum HD intake delivers a balance of power, filtration efficiency, and ease of installation.

Built to withstand off-road conditions and daily driving demands, this intake system features a washable and reusable Pro 10R air filter that maximizes dust holding capacity and longevity. Its custom molded hood seal blocks hot engine air, ensuring cooler, denser air reaches the engine for optimal combustion.

Key Features

The aFe Momentum HD Cold Air Intake combines advanced engineering with premium materials to deliver superior performance and reliability:

• Outflows factory intake by 23% for enhanced power and throttle response
• Washable and reusable Pro 10R air filter with ten layers of progressively finer cotton gauze media
• Large 8-inch tall, 360-degree radial flow filter with reinforced metal frame to prevent collapse
• Custom molded hood seal to block hot engine air and maintain cooler intake temperatures
• Silicone coupling with custom aluminum insert to ensure proper emissions control integration
• One-piece sealed housing made from heat-resistant cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE)
• Clear sight window for easy filter inspection without disassembly
• Dyno-tuned intake tube designed for maximum power gains and perfect fitment
• Direct-fit design using factory mounting points with no cutting or modifications required
• Includes all necessary T-bolt clamps, couplings, and hardware for a complete installation

Construction & Design

The Momentum HD intake system features a unique one-piece housing constructed from durable, heat-resistant cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), which resists heat soak and maintains structural integrity under demanding conditions. The patented filter-to-housing interface allows for the largest possible air filter, maximizing airflow and filtration surface area. The housing’s smooth design reduces turbulence and promotes efficient air delivery to the engine.

The Pro 10R air filter is engineered with ten layers of progressively finer cotton gauze media, pre-oiled for immediate use. Its inverted top and large surface area extend maintenance intervals, while the reinforced metal frame prevents filter collapse during heavy off-road use. The silicone coupling includes a custom aluminum insert to maintain emissions compliance and ensure a secure connection.

Performance & Sound

By increasing airflow by 23% over the factory intake, the aFe Momentum HD Cold Air Intake improves throttle response and boosts low-end torque, enhancing overall engine performance. The dyno-tuned intake tube is designed to optimize airflow dynamics, contributing to smoother power delivery. Additionally, the intake produces a subtle, aggressive induction sound that enhances the driving experience without excessive noise.

Installation & Fitment

This intake system is a direct-fit replacement for the factory air intake on 2020–2021 Jeep Wrangler and 2021–2023 Jeep Gladiator models equipped with the 3.0L EcoDiesel engine. Installation is straightforward and requires no cutting, drilling, or modifications. The system uses factory mounting points and includes all necessary hardware, clamps, and couplings for a secure and professional fit. The custom molded hood seal ensures a perfect seal to the hood, preventing hot air intrusion.

What's Included
