aFe Magnum FORCE Cold Air Intake System

2003–2007 Dodge Ram 2500 / Ram 3500

54-10412

Overview:

The aFe Magnum FORCE Stage 2 Cold Air Intake System is a complete replacement for the factory air intake on 2003 to 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 trucks. Designed for diesel and gas-powered models within this range, this system delivers a significant upgrade in airflow and engine breathing. By drawing in cooler, denser air, it improves combustion efficiency, resulting in increased horsepower, torque, and overall engine performance. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking a reliable and effective power enhancement without extensive modifications.

This intake system features a high-flow Pro 5R air filter combined with a large open-element airbox and a rotomolded intake tube engineered for smooth airflow. The sealed heat shield isolates the filter from engine heat, ensuring the air entering the engine remains cool for optimal combustion.

Key Features:

Engineered to maximize airflow and filtration, the aFe Magnum FORCE Cold Air Intake System offers the following benefits:

• Pro 5R air filter with 5 layers of medical-grade cotton gauze for 98.6% filtration efficiency
• Rotomolded plastic intake tube with smooth bends to reduce airflow restriction
• One-piece powder-coated 16-gauge aluminum heat shield that blocks engine heat and seals against the hood
• Massive 4-inch flange with inverted top design for secure filter mounting
• 117% increase in airflow (CFM) compared to stock intake
• Estimated gains of +18 horsepower and +24 ft-lb of torque
• Washable and reusable air filter media for long-term use
• Durable polyurethane sealing surfaces to withstand extreme engine temperatures
• Easy installation using factory mounting points with no cutting or drilling required
• Backed by a 2-year limited warranty and proudly made in the USA

Construction & Design:

The Magnum FORCE Stage 2 intake system is built with high-quality materials designed for durability and performance. The intake tube is rotomolded plastic, chosen for its smooth internal surface and resistance to heat soak, which helps maintain cooler air temperatures. The heat shield is crafted from heavy-duty 16-gauge aluminum with a black powder-coated finish to resist corrosion and engine bay wear.

The Pro 5R air filter features a multi-layer cotton gauze design that balances maximum airflow with superior filtration. Its progressive layering traps contaminants effectively while allowing the engine to breathe freely. The entire assembly is engineered to fit precisely within the engine bay, ensuring a secure seal and protection from hot engine air.

Performance & Sound

By increasing the volume of cooler, oxygen-rich air entering the engine, this cold air intake system enhances combustion efficiency, resulting in noticeable improvements in horsepower and torque. The smooth airflow path reduces turbulence, allowing the engine to respond quicker to throttle inputs. Additionally, the intake produces a subtle, aggressive induction sound that enhances the driving experience without being intrusive.

Installation & Fitment:

The aFe Magnum FORCE Cold Air Intake System is designed for a straightforward installation process using existing factory mounting points. No cutting, drilling, or permanent modifications are necessary, making it a hassle-free upgrade for DIY enthusiasts and professional installers alike. Comprehensive instructions are included to guide you through each step, ensuring a secure and proper fit on 2003–2007 Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 models.

What's Included:

• Pro 5R high-flow air filter
• Rotomolded plastic intake tube with velocity stack
• Powder-coated one-piece aluminum heat shield
