Mopar’s “Ram Airflow” Cold-Air Intake System For Ram 1500:

[UnloosedChewtoy]

So what speed, tires and gear ratio? I'm getting 17.. if I'm lucky... at about 75ish MPH...

I keep hearing folks north or 20mpg and I'm guessing that's at like 55 or somthing

Before the Ram Airflow, I am pretty sure I could have gotten 20+ if I had done under 75 on my first (and only) road trip so far. At 80+ (speed limits are 80 here), I got 18, because there was no wind that day. I got lucky, its always blowing out here. On the way back, fighting strong headwinds, I got 14. Same route, same miles.

As my sig says... 3.92 gears, and tires are factory equivalent size. (She came with the 22s, but I currently have Rebel 18" rims with 275/65 tires on them. Same overall diameter as factory tires.)

Someday after 'rona is more contained, we'll be taking more road trips again, and we'll see how she does.

I always wanted to add the WS6 to my Trans Am, just couldn’t afford many mods at the time. I just wanted the look of the Ram air hood!

I love my 2000 WS6 , big nasty cam, and a ton of go fast goodies , I also enjoy the new generation on my 2016 Scat Pack Charger. I am also on the edge about this Ram air for my 21 Limited....

Anyone have a link for the best price to get one? I can find a low price, but shipping is through the roof.

Jumped onto this thread to see if maybe the truck RAM AIR was worth it. Ran into Trans AM lovers . I came close to selling mine once and luckily things turned around. 2000 Trans AM WS6 with 7K miles. Truck was hooked to the trailer for a few days so the garage queen got some daily driving.

I have a 2000 WS6 also with 41k , it has a big nasty cam, and a tune.

So I broke down and bought one. Had my body shop paint it to match my truck and highlight the letters on Mopar blue

Looks really good!! I'm thinking of getting one also for mine. Have you seen any noticeable gains in MPG? I know it's gotta sound better also.

Good luck. I got mine for just over that (including shipping) by using a coupon code with BAM Wholesale parts. Sure, the price tag looks great at just under $730, but the shipping is terrible. But that was the best overall price I could find.

Still not as bad as some places. Some are charging $300 for shipping, I kid you not. What a load of baloney.

From what I've seen in this thread—just two pages back, actually—we can pick one up for around $800-850 (depending on taxes) from our local Ram dealer. Why would anyone pay for shipping?

I don't trust my local dealer much, and like I said in previous comments, they don't always honor the accessories coupons Mopar sends out. I would have definitely gone through them if I could trust them to honor pricing/coupon.

If you can get a trusted dealership to do that price, I'd say go for that over shipping, I agree.

I’ll take it, just to keep my Mopar warranty happy. Also looks cool.

Does anybody know why the Mopar site says for off road use only for the new cold air intake?

 

[securityguy]

Probably does not meet CARB.

Curious too since the following is in the installation instructions:

I think they started selling it before they met CARB, so the whole "off road only" may be left-over language from then. Mine was built around July of 2019, according to the instructions' date, and it does not have any steps regarding the E.O. label. It also did not come with one. I bet later on, when it was CARB certified, they added those last steps and the stickers/labels.

Or they just want to cover their butts legally, so throw some extra words in.

Wow really?! They charged me like $20 from Ohio to Oklahoma. My final price I paid was $702.33. here's a screenshot of the invoice they emailed me.

I just tried to order it from them and my shipping cost is 197. bucks.

List price is $924, use the Mopar 15% off accessories coupon (I had a 20% from dealer) and you’re around $785. I’m in South Carolina.

what dealer in SC , I am in Beuafort and I am sure my Local Dealers will be outrageous.
