Air Intake for Dodge Charger RT & SRT-8 (2006-2018) Hemi 5.7L 6.1L Engines

Maximize Volumetric Efficiency for your 2006-2018 Dodge Charger Gen III Hemi V8

Who It’s For: Designed specifically for Dodge Charger owners running the legendary Gen III Hemi engine family, including the 5.7L Eagle and the high-revving 6.1L SRT-8 variants.

The Problem: From the factory, the Gen III Hemi is strangled by a restrictive plastic air box and accordion-style intake tube designed more for silencing the engine than moving air. This creates a bottleneck that limits the natural breathing capabilities of these large-displacement V8s, especially during high-RPM pulls or heavy acceleration where heat soak becomes a performance killer.

The Solution: We engineered this intake system to eliminate the factory intake restrictions, providing a direct, high-velocity path for cold air to reach the throttle body. By replacing the baffled stock housing, we allow the Hemi V8 to draw in a higher volume of oxygen, resulting in improved combustion efficiency and a more aggressive acoustic profile under load.

Why This is the Ultimate Upgrade

• Optimized Airflow: High-flow conical filter provides significantly more surface area than the stock paper element, reducing pressure drop and improving throttle response across the entire powerband.
• Enthusiast Sound Profile: Removes the factory resonators to give your Charger that deep, throaty induction roar that a V8 engine deserves without being obnoxious at highway cruising speeds.
• Direct Bolt-On Installation: This is a true "Saturday morning" project. It utilizes factory mounting points and includes all necessary hardware. For 6.1L owners, please note the upper fan shroud requires removal for proper clearance of the oversized intake piping.

Technical Notes:

6.1L SRT-8 models require removal of the upper fan shroud for installation. For best results, disconnect the negative battery terminal for 10 minutes post-install to allow the ECU to recalibrate long-term fuel trims for the increased airflow.
