Review on πŸ’¨ K&N Cold Air Intake Kit for Jeep/Dodge (Grand Cherokee, Durango) 5.7L V8: High Performance, Guaranteed Horsepower Boost (2011-2019) by Bruce Cavett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy install, varoom varoom

Got this for my 2013 Dodge Durango R/T. It took about 30 minutes to install, but we already had it installed on the charger so everything was known (took about an hour). I haven't driven it on a full tank of gas yet, but I see an improvement in gas mileage (although anything over 12.5mpg is an improvement). Intake air noise is a welcome addition, and I hear a little more grunt, not much, but a little more. I know it increased my horsepower, but since I ride a Durango and not a Charger, I can't say I've noticed an increase. One note: when removing the sensor, the instructions mention a clamp. There is no clip of the 2013 Dodge Durango. However, there is a small piece of plastic sticking out of the sensor (don't break it!) and then there is a raised, ramped plastic ridge where the sensor sits so the small piece of plastic on top of the sensor is flush with the feeler. the highest part of the ramp, and this prevents it from rotating and extending. I just used the pliers on the ramp to crush the (very technical here) plastic ramp, flatten it out somehow, and then the sensor was able to flip over and come out unharmed. I had no intention of selling or using a replacement air intake. So if you are thinking of selling this item you should use some lithium grease and gently pry this tiny plastic sensor up and over the rail part. But ironing the ramp is much easier. giggle
