Part #: 50-70062G

Overview

The aFe Momentum HD Cold Air Intake System with Pro GUARD7 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 delivers improved throttle response, enhanced low-end torque, and increased airflow for better overall engine performance. Ideal for off-road enthusiasts and daily drivers alike, the Momentum HD intake provides a durable, high-quality upgrade that maximizes power while maintaining factory fit and finish.

With a focus on filtration efficiency and heat management, this intake system ensures your engine breathes cleaner, cooler air, contributing to longevity and reliability under demanding conditions.

Key Features

The Momentum HD Cold Air Intake combines advanced filtration technology and precision engineering to optimize your Jeep’s performance. Key features include:

• Patented Pro GUARD7 filter media with 99.7% cumulative efficiency for superior filtration and protection against contaminants
• 23% increased airflow compared to the factory intake, enhancing engine breathing and power output
• Up to +39 lb-ft of torque gains below 2000 RPM for improved low-end grunt and throttle response
• 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 and secure fitment
• Unique tire tread design on the housing for a rugged aesthetic and functional grip during installation
• Large, seven-layer, 8-inch tall radial flow air filter with a 4-inch flange for maximum surface area and airflow
• Clear sight window for easy filter inspection without disassembly
• Dyno-tuned intake tube made from heat-resistant cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) for durability and performance
• Direct-fit design using factory mounting points, requiring no cutting or modifications

Construction & Design

The Momentum HD intake system features a one-piece sealed housing constructed from heat-resistant cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), which offers exceptional durability and resistance to heat soak. This material choice helps maintain cooler intake air temperatures, contributing to consistent performance gains. The patented filter-to-housing interface minimizes the number of parts, simplifying installation and enhancing system integrity.

The Pro GUARD7 air filter is engineered with five layers of progressive cotton media combined with two layers of synthetic media, delivering a robust 99.7% filtration efficiency. Its inverted top design and reinforced metal frame prevent collapse and extend service intervals, making it especially suited for off-road and dusty environments.

Performance & Sound

By increasing airflow by 23% over the factory intake, the aFe Momentum HD Cold Air Intake significantly improves engine breathing, resulting in noticeable torque gains of up to 39 lb-ft below 2000 RPM. This translates to enhanced throttle response and stronger low-end power, ideal for towing, off-roading, and everyday driving. The dyno-tuned intake tube is designed to optimize airflow dynamics, ensuring smooth power delivery without compromising emissions compliance.

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 3.0L EcoDiesel models. It installs quickly using existing factory mounting points and includes all necessary hardware, silicone couplings, and T-bolt clamps. No cutting, drilling, or modifications are required, making it an accessible upgrade for enthusiasts and professional installers alike.

What's Included

• One-piece sealed intake housing with custom molded hood seal
• Pro GUARD7 pre-oiled performance air filter (8” tall, 4” flange)
• Dyno-tuned intake tube made from heat-resistant XLPE
• Silicone coupling with custom aluminum insert
• All necessary T-bolt clamps, couplings, and mounting hardware
• Installation instructions

Ideal For

This intake system is perfect for Jeep Gladiator and Wrangler owners seeking improved engine performance, enhanced throttle response, and superior filtration in both on-road and off-road conditions. It is especially suited for drivers who demand reliable power delivery in low RPM ranges and want a durable, maintenance-friendly air intake solution designed to withstand harsh environments.
