EVIL ENERGY Cold Air Intake for Dodge RAM 1500 5.7L (2019–2024) — Black, Aluminum Tube & Heat Shield

EVIL ENERGY Cold Air Intake for Dodge RAM 1500 (2019–2024) is a complete intake kit with an aluminum tube, steel heat shield, and washable pre-filter that improves cold air delivery and protects the engine’s airflow.

This EVIL ENERGY kit is built for the 5.7L HEMI in Dodge RAM 1500 models from 2019 through 2024 and arrives with everything needed for a straightforward installation: precision-formed aluminum tubing, a steel heat shield, and a multi-layer synthetic non-woven filter with a washable pre-filter. The system is designed to move cooler air to the throttle while resisting road dust and debris, offering a balance of usable performance gains and long-term filter life without complex tuning.

How does this cold air intake change throttle response and everyday driving?

Expect crisper throttle response and a more assertive engine note under acceleration while retaining smooth operation at cruising speeds. The larger, smoother aluminum tube reduces intake turbulence and helps the engine breathe more freely, translating to quicker response when you press the accelerator.

• Smoother-walled aluminum tube for steadier airflow
• Heat shield limits engine bay heat to help maintain denser intake air
• Deeper tone under acceleration with quiet cruising behavior
• Designed to complement stock fuel and ignition mapping—no required ECU changes in most cases

Will the filter and pre-filter handle dusty or off-road use?

Yes—this intake uses a multi-layer synthetic non-woven filter that delivers high filtration efficiency with washable, reusable media to cut running costs. The included pre-filter catches larger particles first, extending the service interval in dusty environments and preserving the primary filter’s performance.

• Multi-layer synthetic media with over 98% filtration efficiency
• Washable and reusable to reduce replacement frequency and cost
• Pre-filter screens out larger debris during dusty or off-road driving
• Simple cleaning routine restores original flow characteristics

How difficult is installation, and what tools are required?

Installation is designed to be completed in about 40 minutes using basic hand tools, making it suitable for DIYers familiar with under-hood work. The kit includes precision-cut tubing and mounting hardware; follow manufacturer instructions for secure fitment and hose clamp torque.

• Estimated install time: ~40 minutes with common tools
• Includes heat shield, tubing, filter, and mounting hardware
• No special tuning usually required—verify sensor connections and clamps
• Clearances and fitment engineered for 2019–2024 Dodge RAM 1500 5.7L

What materials and build features ensure durability?

The intake uses a smooth-walled aluminum tube for corrosion resistance and consistent airflow, paired with a heavy-gauge steel heat shield that isolates hot engine air. Hardware and clamps are selected to withstand vibration and temperature cycles common to truck use.

• Aluminum intake tube with precision bends and smooth interior
• Steel heat shield to reduce heat soak from the engine bay
• Durable, reusable synthetic filter media with washable pre-filter
• Robust clamps and brackets sized for truck duty

Who this is for: Drivers who own a 2019–2024 Dodge RAM 1500 with the 5.7L engine and want a practical, bolt-on intake that improves throttle feel and engine sound while maintaining filtration and long-term serviceability. It’s a solid option for daily drivers who occasionally tow or carry loads, as well as owners who enjoy a simple, reversible modification without complex tuning. Always confirm fitment to your specific model year and follow all local regulations regarding aftermarket intake modifications.
