aFe Momentum GT Cold Air Intake

2011–2015 Dodge Challenger / Charger 3.6L V6

Part #: 54-72201

Overview

The aFe Momentum GT Cold Air Intake is engineered to unlock the full potential of your 3.6L V6 Dodge Challenger or Charger from model years 2011 through 2015. Designed for enthusiasts seeking noticeable gains in horsepower, torque, and throttle response, this intake system optimizes airflow while maintaining reliable filtration. Whether you're looking to enhance daily driving or improve performance on the street, the Momentum GT delivers a seamless upgrade that blends durability with precision engineering.

With a focus on maximizing engine breathing, this cold air intake replaces the restrictive factory airbox and intake tube with a high-flow, roto-molded housing and a large performance air filter. The result is improved combustion efficiency and a more responsive driving experience without compromising reliability or fitment.

Key Features

The Momentum GT Cold Air Intake combines advanced design and quality materials to provide a superior airflow solution for your Dodge 3.6L V6. Key features include:

• One-piece roto-molded housing constructed from heat-resistant black cross-linked polyethylene for durability and thermal insulation
• Large clear sight window for easy, hassle-free filter inspection without disassembly
• CAD-designed and dyno-tuned intake tube ensuring perfect fitment and optimized airflow
• Injection-molded sensor port for seamless integration with the factory temperature sensor
• Massive 9" tall inverted-top performance air filter with a large oval flange for maximum filtration surface area
• Premium stainless steel T-bolt clamps and reinforced silicone couplings for a secure, leak-free seal
• Supports factory "Hellcat" headlight air inlet integration on 2015 Dodge Challenger models (requires separate scoop p/n 54-72203-S)
• Minimal parts design for quick, bolt-on installation with no cutting or modifications required

Filter Options

The Momentum GT intake offers two high-performance filter media options tailored to different driving needs and maintenance preferences:

• Pro DRY S (Non-Oiled): Features three layers of progressively finer synthetic media, providing excellent filtration efficiency without the need for oiling. This washable and reusable filter is ideal for daily drivers and dusty environments where easy maintenance is a priority.
• Pro 5R (Oiled): Constructed with five layers of oiled cotton gauze media, this filter delivers maximum airflow and performance even when dirty. It is washable and reusable, making it perfect for enthusiasts and high-output applications seeking the best possible engine breathing.

Construction & Design

The aFe Momentum GT Cold Air Intake is built with premium materials engineered for longevity and performance. The roto-molded housing is crafted from black cross-linked polyethylene, a heat-resistant polymer that protects the intake charge from engine bay heat soak, preserving cooler air temperatures for improved combustion. The intake tube’s CAD design and dyno tuning ensure a precise fit and optimized airflow path, reducing turbulence and restriction.

Stainless steel T-bolt clamps and reinforced silicone couplings secure the system components, providing a durable, leak-free seal that withstands heat and vibration. The clear sight window integrated into the housing allows for quick visual inspection of the air filter, simplifying maintenance without disassembly.

Performance & Sound

By replacing the restrictive factory air intake, the Momentum GT system enhances airflow to the engine, resulting in improved throttle response, increased horsepower, and better torque delivery. The large, high-flow air filter and smooth intake tube design reduce intake restrictions, allowing your 3.6L V6 to breathe more efficiently. Additionally, the system produces a subtle, aggressive induction sound that enhances the driving experience without excessive noise.

Installation & Fitment

The Momentum GT Cold Air Intake is designed for a straightforward, bolt-on installation on 2011–2015 Dodge Challenger and Charger models equipped with the 3.6L V6 engine. No cutting, drilling, or permanent modifications are required, making it an ideal upgrade for enthusiasts seeking performance gains with minimal effort. The system includes all necessary hardware and detailed instructions to ensure a smooth installation process.
