aFe Momentum HD Cold Air Intake System

Fits Most Dodge/Ram 6.7L Diesel/5.9L Diesel (10-12)

Part #: 50-72004

Overview

The aFe Momentum HD Cold Air Intake System is a precision-engineered performance upgrade designed specifically for 2010 to 2012 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks equipped with the 6.7L Cummins diesel engine. This system replaces the factory air intake with a sealed, one-piece housing and a high-flow Pro 10R air filter, delivering cooler, denser air to the engine for improved combustion efficiency.

Ideal for truck owners seeking a reliable and cost-effective power enhancement, the Momentum HD system provides noticeable gains in horsepower and torque while maintaining ease of installation and long-term durability. Whether you use your Ram for daily driving, heavy-duty work, or performance applications, this intake system offers a balanced upgrade that enhances throttle response and engine efficiency without complex modifications.

Key Features

The Momentum HD Cold Air Intake System incorporates advanced design elements and premium components to maximize airflow and protect your engine:

• Increases torque by +43 lbs-ft and horsepower by +18 HP over the factory intake
• Delivers 27% more airflow compared to the stock intake system
• One-piece roto-molded sealed airbox with built-in clear sight window for easy filter inspection
• Massive 1,000 CFM Pro 10R high-flow air filter providing superior filtration and airflow
• Sealed airbox design isolates the filter from engine heat by sealing tightly against the hood
• 3-angle velocity stack smoothes airflow transition for optimal engine breathing
• Durable powder-coated steel intake tube with stainless steel hardware for corrosion resistance
• Flexible rubber trim seals the airbox to the hood, preventing hot air intrusion

Construction & Design

The Momentum HD system features a rugged one-piece airbox and heat shield constructed from 16-gauge powder-coated steel, ensuring exceptional durability and resistance to corrosion in harsh environments. The sealed design effectively isolates the intake filter from engine bay heat by sealing tightly against the hood with a flexible rubber trim, allowing the system to draw in cooler ambient air for improved combustion.

An integrated clear sight window built into the airbox allows for quick visual inspection of the filter element without removing the housing, simplifying routine maintenance. The intake tube includes a specially engineered 3-angle velocity stack that optimizes airflow by smoothing the transition from the filter to the intake manifold, reducing turbulence and enhancing engine breathing efficiency.

Performance & Sound

By increasing airflow by 27% over the factory intake, the aFe Momentum HD system delivers measurable gains in horsepower and torque, resulting in improved acceleration and enhanced throttle response. The cooler, denser air charge improves combustion efficiency, which can contribute to better fuel economy under certain driving conditions. Additionally, the intake produces a more aggressive induction sound that enhances the driving experience without excessive noise or drone.

Installation & Fitment

This cold air intake system is designed for direct bolt-on installation on 2010 to 2012 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 models equipped with the 6.7L Cummins diesel engine. Installation requires no cutting, drilling, or permanent modifications, making it accessible for enthusiasts with basic mechanical skills and simple hand tools. The kit includes all necessary hardware and comprehensive instructions, allowing you to complete the upgrade in an hour or less.
