Cold Air Intake W/Heat Shield For Dodge Ram 2500 3500 (1994-2002) 5.9L Diesel Blue

Lower EGTs and Faster Spool-Up for the 5.9L Cummins B-Series

Who It’s For: Designed specifically for 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 owners running the legendary 5.9L Cummins B-Series turbo diesel engine.

The Problem: The factory air box on the B-Series Cummins was designed more for noise suppression than high-volume airflow. For 2nd Gen Ram owners, especially those who have adjusted their fuel plates or added programmers, the stock restrictive plumbing and paper filters choke the Holset turbocharger. This leads to sluggish off-the-line response and dangerously high Exhaust Gas Temperatures (EGTs) when pulling a heavy grade with a trailer.

The Solution: We engineered this intake system to eliminate the factory bottlenecks. By utilizing a high-flow dry filter and a dedicated heat shield, we provide a direct path for cool, dense air to reach the turbo compressor. This setup corrects the factory design flaws of the 5.9L Cummins, delivering quicker boost recovery and the thermal headroom needed for heavy towing or performance tuning.

Why This is the Ultimate Upgrade

• Enhanced Turbo Dynamics: By reducing intake restriction, your Holset turbo spools up significantly faster, reducing the "dead zone" before the boost hits.
• Heavy-Duty Heat Shielding: The included powder-coated blue heat shield isolates the intake air from the massive radiant heat generated by the 5.9L engine block and exhaust manifold.
• Direct Bolt-On Fitment: Engineered to utilize existing mounting points, this kit replaces the entire factory assembly without the need for custom fabrication or drilling into your inner fenders.
