Damn sure didn't hurt it .. cause it's pulling the same bottom and headlight airflow.. just with a more open and sound producing filter. Coming from a scat pack owner.. all i have to say is... THAT WINE THO!! nice shit mane!
The fact that there is such controversy and discussion around this subject tells me it's absolutely not worth it; else there wouldn't be! It'd be a few comments leading to the simple decision "yes" or "no"!
Just finished the pulley change on my Redeye. Had put a K&N CAI on it about a month ago. Loved the blower whine. After the engine work and dyno it all came to light. The K&N cost me many hp. The best of all by far was the factory unit. No question, no doubt. Car is an animal now. I'm sticking with the factory CAI. We are adding an intercooler tank to bring the temps way down. These cars are incredible.
I’m new to cars and just got myself a 2018 GT. Def no hellcat but it’s cool to become a part of the community. I’m already looking into mods 😂 great vid, man!
I have a 2018 5.0. I bought a roush cold air intake with tune. I had the cold air intake installed but there were no roush dealers who could tune the car. With just the cold air intake there is a noticeable difference over the factory cold air intake. When I take off the throttle response is immediate. The car feels much quicker. I’m not certain that it’s faster but it definitely quicker.
Bro thanks for keeping it real I have to subscribe because your straight up honest if I decide to have friends they have to be like you REAL…Thanks bro
There was an experiment about ambient temp on open vs enclosed intake. The enclosed air was cooler because less air from around the engine was used. Of course the enclosed intake was quieter and produced less airflow. Honestly the hellcat is tuned amazing, no reason to mess with the intake or exhaust imo. I like the whine.
Very true! Thanks for that input. I totally agree it probably was just fine from stock setup. Sometimes I get my head wrapped around MODS (some I don't necessarily even need).
@@curt1star05 I just purchased the stock 2019 Redeye intake used which is identical to the demon intake...it was a hard decision between the afe and the redeye intake but your video helped with my decision. Who knows i may still get it for my 2nd challenger later for looks only. It does look good lol
Thanks for making this vid bro. I see you added the air catcher tube after making some modifications. Any difference with that add-on? I have a 2021 Challenger Scat Pack Wide Body with Rhombi Illuminated Air Catcher Headlights and aFe says the GT Momentum won’t fit.
I slapped one in my Charger along with ported upper and lower intakes with a 80mm ported throttle body with adapter, RIPP Ignition coils coupled with NGK LASER IRIDIUM plugs and my charger dummy quick and responsive in everyway especially on COLD STARTS it's QUICK. And I've got the 2019 BLACKTOP PENTA STAR 🥴😂😀 THE AFE DOES WORK. IT GIVES ME 18+ ADDITIONAL HORSEPOWER. The only way you can see the results in before and after is on the DYNO! For example, the first thing I did was installed the AFE. I had it DYNO and it read 17 additional horsepower. Then I put the upper, lower intakes with throttle body all ported and the DYNO pick up an additional 30 + horsepower. Even after upgrading to the RIPP Coils and NGK'S that gave me 10 horsepower on the DYNO. And finally I upgraded the exhaust and slapped a pair of MRT VERSION 1 CAT BACK'S and one single FLOW MASTER ORIGINAL 40 and that gave me 15 ponies and allowed it to really breath. My shit sounds crazy. And if you add up them numbers it all comes out to major gains compared to when I purchased it off the lot. AFE WORKS!
Well I spent way too much time trying to decide on what cai to choose but u jus helped me decide against the enclosed one I had my eye on... So I tried to order an airaid and then a k&n filter only to realize they won't ship to CA 😩
Do you notice any difference in the whining sound after you got the intake? I’m asking because I got the bass hellcat and I noticed that the redeye is a lot louder, and it also comes with that open intake
If they would make a duct system that allowed air coming into the engine through the scoop to feed directly into the air filter.....but I guess it does help keep the engine cooler with cool air coming into the scoop..dang it they make one for the scat pack challenger but nada for the charger.
Yea, that would be nice. I like the shaker edition. The air is coming straight in from the shaker scoop. Don’t know how true it is but I’ve heard the shakers usually beat the other scats 🤔
The gauge on your dash computer read the temperature post combustion, thus it does not give you any difference. You need to measure at the tube right after the filter to read différences
Does everyone forget that there is a heat extractor directly above the intake? That exact reason is why I got it. Although, I did not take into account how often the filter needs serviced because of it being exposed to the elements, so be mindful of that
@@curt1star05 I've seen heat extractor block off plates and covers for many different ones, but none for the SRT Durango intake. At least I can't seem to find it
To be real, look at the computer readings....it was definitely a little higher with the inclosed system and it most definitely sounded way better before.
Heh: TLDW: It's a Supercharger Sound Suppressor? I wonder if they've considered that as a selling option? Thanks for the video and I look forward to your recommendation!
ON A SP 392 NO SUPER CHARGER, IS THE HEADLIGHT CAI REALLY WORK? CAN YOU FEEL THE DIFFERENCE? OR IS IT A WASTE OF TIME AND $$$$? BETTER TO KEEP IT FACTORY STOCK?
This is 4 years too late, but the difference in air flow comes from the pipes installed between the two. Meaning if both closed and open CAI’s are installed correctly with the heat shield on the open CAI. Also the colder air occurs more when the car is in motion, not when it is at a light. More people prefer the open due to the sound. However, if you’re looking to maximize your CAI, get it tuned. You’ll get a bigger boost in HP.
They have some high temp adhesive insulation you can apply to the inside of the box and to the outside of the intake tube. I guarantee you will see lower temps.
wait what how were you running 40 degrees hotter then out side thats weird. on my 5.7 charger i bought the open box K&N and when im idling its bad ill get up to a 180 when its 95 out but when im driving im within 10 degrease. but im thinking about going to get the hellcat intake with the snorkle that squeezes by the head light.
I’m debating on which one of the two to purchase for my vehicle which is the same.. I liked the sound a little more on the open intake. Which one would you recommend?
Numbers don't lie... If it's the same it's the same.. but that headlight cone you added helps. You had a hole taking in more hot air. What was it after?
Thanks for telling the truth about these aftermarket air intake. I have wasted money on these intake too bro. My stock intake runs better in my Hellcat.
its harder to get cooler air on a hellcat due to the supercharger, i feel like for your car you want to get the supercharger coolant as cool as possible not just the air
@@curt1star05 I have a scatpack. Just ordered a JLT and some self adhesive heat shield insulator that I saw someone else use. My HC intake is only 3 degree difference from ambient. I want to givenit a bit more air. Hate the thought of blocking the heat extractor so ordered a shield to hover an inch over the to of the filter. Hoping to leave extractors open
First did you notice a performance difference? I have seen videos where they say the inclose gets the cooler air.I wanted a cold air intake for performance but I noticed a lot of people just getting them for the sound.
I have a 2014 Chrysler 300S AWD V-6, I made my own cold 🥶 air intake out of the factory air filter box 📦. My 0-60 with an 1/8th inch spacer 4.46sec. In sport mode
It’s not hard, take your air intake filter box out, drill 50 1/8th inch holes 🕳 in the bottom of the filter box. Make sure you clean the bottom of the filter box out. That’s it lol I’m getting 23MPG IN THE CITY 🌆 39MPG HIGHWAY 🛣
@@curt1star05 you may not picked up a lot of horsepower at least 15th 20 horsepower with those hemispheres and you have to unlock the cpu. They make modern cars for not taking tune very well.
Keep it open!! and make a custom air duct with a pipe! So cutout from fog light grille cutout a hole bottom of the air box and make a custom pipe from fog grille to reach bottom of the cutout air box and temperature gets down to 50 degrees ! Air intake filter cone stays cool seriously! Well mine is tuned and this mod i did its giving me lot more whine noise and more power! And i drive it in heavy rain and none of the water reaches up to the airbox or the cone filter
You should have waited a little while for the cpu to adjust to the air/fuel change. After it does, you’re in there! They’ll hear you whining far before they see you.
Make sure your rubber seal on the bottom of the box is on right... my Temps were 30 degrees lower after I fixed the seal (I had had to take it out and get pliers and squeeze the seal onto the intake box And also make sure your headlight tube doesn't have a gap at the top (since heat rises, you wanna make sure the top of the tube is right into the headlight instead of having a gap)
Yo fam this ya boy Kenny Ken. Is it worth changing to a cold air intake, or should I just keep the stock box air keep my k/n air filter. I’m seeing a lot of videos saying keep it the way it is and just change the filter
I got a older model cammed 5.7L charger and I just recently installed a Volant closed box cold air intake and I can admit it's alot quieter driving 😆 seem like it take away the drone from my Flowmaster 44s I don't know
Looking back now 2+ years, what would you recommend in the way of a cold-air intake for a 2022 Dodge Charger GT (V6) at this point? We are looking to pull the trigger at the end of Summer. Thanks!
I just got these momentum cold air I Intakes for my m4 I’m hoping it will add more paid quite a bit for those when I seen AFE had a another one from magnum force giving it way more hp and flow just hoping these will do as goo because I didn’t pay more just for it to perform less than the momentum ya feel me 😂
No not yet man I basically got a couple bolt ons and a race chip just waiting to take it in a shop will definitely get back at the comment once it’s done!
Lol. It’s definitely not as noticeable until you step on it while in the cabin. I have a video coming up showing fly-bys (after my new exhaust) and the whine still sounds pretty loud from the outside surprisingly!
What is the best option for you for sound and power. I don’t care about a crazy amount of power just soemthing noticable even slightly but definitely sound of the whine too. What do you have in mind.
I love the afe momentum but I’ve heard really good things about JLT and another open cai. Either way the open setup is better for me ( the brand I don’t think matters as much). The open setup lets it breathe a whole lot better and amplifies the whine. Downside, more air =more gas used. Lol.
@@shaunrajput5210 that’s why it’s important to use quality cai system with good filters. But honestly I’ve installed the top cover for my setup. If you go enclosed I only have experience with the afe, and can’t guarantee much of a difference in sound than stock.
Let me be honest the only reason you can hear the noise on that super charger is cuz it was a dry filter that you had before to a blue oil base filter...
Well the hellcat already ready fast its definitely hard to add a lil more power to it without a pulley swap i like the close box look better. Like you said the engine bay does get hot. I have a corsa cai on my rt and my temps average about 5-7 degrees difference from outside air. But my car is na
HOW ABOUT JUST OPENING BOTH FRONT INNER LIGHTS TO GET MORE COLD AIR INTO ENGINE? THIS WILL NOT COST ANY $$$$ ..THIS WILL ADD ADDITIONAL COLD AIR IN ADDITION TO THE CENTER RAM AIR SCOOP ON HOOD WITH THE 2 HEAT EXTRACTORS ON SP HOOD. MORE COLD AIR WILL COOL ENGINE COMPARTMENT.
Yep agree! It’ll definitely cool everything off. But I’m not sure about pushing more air into the intake without a different air box. But just opening the inner lights should help!
@@curt1star05 It won't cost $$$ and most simple to do. I don't think this will mess up anything or cause any problems like some modifications can and do cost alot of $$$$.
The rad induction is open on top but the hood seals it off. At least that is the goal. So, basically the Momentum look mores sleek, is quieter, and has a little bigger filter. That really doesn't to most cars since they are not modded to need much more than stock. The RAD versus is just so much more throaty. The other sounds like the dog barking through a tube. Let er Rumble I say. You don't run a Hellcat to have a Sleeper.
its harder to get cooler air on a hellcat due to the supercharger, i feel like for your car you want to get the supercharger coolant as cool as possible not just the air
brittany freeman No. Wouldn’t even know where to start. Lol. I’m gonna have to due to reading up so I can educate myself on it. Not very familiar with supercharger.
@@curt1star05 i know you guys have a water to air system, i wonder if the radiator in front of the car had a bigger capacity if it would give you cooler air going into the engine. i know the demon uses the AC system to super chill the coolant for better intake temps
Yes sir! With all that trapped hot air under the hood, nothing makes it sick just the cool air in. It’s bringing in all the engine heat in with it. The only time it gets really cool is when you’re moving fast💨
I noticed that too. With the open filter the temp looked to be 113 at it's highest and with the closed it jumped to 116. Doesn't really make sense to me either. Anyway, I'm also about to get that same AFE closed CAI for my 2019 5.7. 👍
I just got the same one , I didn’t install it yet and I feel that I waste my money too but it looks way better , “to much money for just the look” yes ...but I keep it anyways ..
The hellcat is like any other engine, a cold air intake and or exhaust are nothing but noise with out a tune, add mid pipes and a tune to that intake and you will definitely notice a difference.
I did all that under warranty and had my tuned computer warranted, the only real problem has been with Diablo sport, like twice a year my car gets an update and when it does my check engine light won't go off until I call them and get a custom tune.
Yours was supposed to come with a tube that connects the front of the intake to the air catcher headlamp. You probably got the wrong one Edut: nvm. I saw the tube
Forgot to let it idle! Thats the only way you know if its sucking hot air from engine. Running any closed/open intake with headlight vent, will read fresh air. My hellcat intake in my rt is 8 degrees higher than outside when running.
But is it a true temp reading? If the sensor is within the engine bay ( where all the heat is) you don’t think the temperature is affected whether it’s fresh air or not? The engine bay gets way too hot to be an accurate reading whether sensor is in a tube or not. Just my opinion.
it's the supercharger whine that is wanted to be amplified along with exhaust. These are MUSCLE cars ya know. lol. If you can't hear them, where is the muscle???
For the challengers and chargers probably not because they already have exceptionally good cold air intake boxes from the factory. If you ever changed an air intake on one of these cars, you know that it has a special hole in the fender to draw air from that is completely separate from the engine bay. Most cold air intakes do not utilize this properly and so are pulling hot air from the engine bay instead of from the outside. That said even though I'm pretty damn sure a cold air intake does absolutely nothing for these cars I still purchased one just because I like the way it looks.
Yep! Absolutely right. But this intake takes advantage of that with a huge hole at the bottom as it was made especially for this car. So it’s drawing air from bottom as well just like stock.
If it was me I would stay with the open air intake and try to get more air in the engine bay some how. ( try to open events little more,) . So your intake is only taking in hot wile your idling
This guys eyes 👀 at 4:54 is priceless 😂🤙waiting for the supercharger whine I love the content though bro 🤙

Intakes for my m4 I’m hoping it will add more paid quite a bit for those when I seen AFE had a another one from magnum force giving it way more hp and flow just hoping these will do as goo because I didn’t pay more just for it to perform less than the momentum ya feel me 😂
I definitely feel you bro! Did you get it installed? Any difference?
No not yet man I basically got a couple bolt ons and a race chip just waiting to take it in a shop will definitely get back at the comment once it’s done!
I’m deciding between JLT and AFE for the wife’s 392 Durango, not sure 🤔
That’s a hard choice. Both are great if they are the open air setup.
The whine went away. No go.
Lol. It’s definitely not as noticeable until you step on it while in the cabin. I have a video coming up showing fly-bys (after my new exhaust) and the whine still sounds pretty loud from the outside surprisingly!
What is the best option for you for sound and power. I don’t care about a crazy amount of power just soemthing noticable even slightly but definitely sound of the whine too. What do you have in mind.
Also the safest, not really feeling the open intake idea cus my previous car hydrolocked and that wasn’t fun to repair lol
I love the afe momentum but I’ve heard really good things about JLT and another open cai. Either way the open setup is better for me ( the brand I don’t think matters as much). The open setup lets it breathe a whole lot better and amplifies the whine. Downside, more air =more gas used. Lol.
@@shaunrajput5210 that’s why it’s important to use quality cai system with good filters. But honestly I’ve installed the top cover for my setup. If you go enclosed I only have experience with the afe, and can’t guarantee much of a difference in sound than stock.
Let me be honest the only reason you can hear the noise on that super charger is cuz it was a dry filter that you had before to a blue oil base filter...
That could be true. But do you know this to be a fact? I never knew the dry filters would give you a better sound to pass through.
The Troopers gonna take dat from you, when they catch ya!
Well the hellcat already ready fast its definitely hard to add a lil more power to it without a pulley swap i like the close box look better. Like you said the engine bay does get hot. I have a corsa cai on my rt and my temps average about 5-7 degrees difference from outside air. But my car is na
You make a good point! Since the video, I actually switched back to original setup and sold the enclosed style
@@curt1star05 i have seen most switch the jlt set up legmaker set up say they did gain power mostly JLT set up on hellcat
Bruh has anyone ever told you that you look like dude from Wild'n Out 😆
Yea, I heard that a few times. Smh. 😂
HOW ABOUT JUST OPENING BOTH FRONT INNER LIGHTS TO GET MORE COLD AIR INTO ENGINE? THIS WILL NOT COST ANY $$$$ ..THIS WILL ADD ADDITIONAL COLD AIR IN ADDITION TO THE CENTER RAM AIR SCOOP ON HOOD WITH THE 2 HEAT EXTRACTORS ON SP HOOD. MORE COLD AIR WILL COOL ENGINE COMPARTMENT.
Yep agree! It’ll definitely cool everything off. But I’m not sure about pushing more air into the intake without a different air box. But just opening the inner lights should help!
@@curt1star05 It won't cost $$$ and most simple to do. I don't think this will mess up anything or cause any problems like some modifications can and do cost alot of $$$$.
Stock intake I keep telling everyone no way around it built and engineered and tuned well
Agreed!
The rad induction is open on top but the hood seals it off. At least that is the goal. So, basically the Momentum look mores sleek, is quieter, and has a little bigger filter. That really doesn't to most cars since they are not modded to need much more than stock. The RAD versus is just so much more throaty. The other sounds like the dog barking through a tube. Let er Rumble I say. You don't run a Hellcat to have a Sleeper.
Check the iat at idle
Yea, I think I skipped that.
My airbox have the removable see through top so I'm gonna try that it screws off and on
Yes sir! Did that help?
@@curt1star05 haven't done it yet will do it when it warms up here in michigan it's like single digits up here
its harder to get cooler air on a hellcat due to the supercharger, i feel like for your car you want to get the supercharger coolant as cool as possible not just the air
Yea. You’re right. Cooler air is difficult. I ended up going with the open intake. It seems that the more air makes the biggest difference.
@@curt1star05 have you tried to see if you could make the water to air exchanger more efficient at removing heat?
brittany freeman No. Wouldn’t even know where to start. Lol. I’m gonna have to due to reading up so I can educate myself on it. Not very familiar with supercharger.
@@curt1star05 i know you guys have a water to air system, i wonder if the radiator in front of the car had a bigger capacity if it would give you cooler air going into the engine. i know the demon uses the AC system to super chill the coolant for better intake temps
KPI killer chiller will achieve what she is speaking abt
Hey man, did the scoop help at all once installed?
I honestly don’t think it made much of a difference
@@curt1star05 damn it..not the response I was hoping for but appreciate the honesty.
Yes sir! With all that trapped hot air under the hood, nothing makes it sick just the cool air in. It’s bringing in all the engine heat in with it. The only time it gets really cool is when you’re moving fast💨
I noticed that too. With the open filter the temp looked to be 113 at it's highest and with the closed it jumped to 116. Doesn't really make sense to me either. Anyway, I'm also about to get that same AFE closed CAI for my 2019 5.7. 👍
Nice! Good choice
He was missing that peice he put on after at the end that's probably why
That probably had a big play in it.
I have this coming this week for my hellcat. Was the blower louder?
Yes sir!!! The open one is two times louder.
@@curt1star05 which one do you recommend. Opened or closed?
@@707Tyree open all day long!
Stock seems better. Now to look at Legmaker lol
Got to put it on a dyno to see the difference bruh.
I just got the same one , I didn’t install it yet and I feel that I waste my money too but it looks way better , “to much money for just the look” yes ...but I keep it anyways ..
Lol. Yea I know. I went back to the open setup. I love the whine!!!
The hellcat is like any other engine, a cold air intake and or exhaust are nothing but noise with out a tune, add mid pipes and a tune to that intake and you will definitely notice a difference.
Yes sir! That’s next since my warranty just ran out.
I did all that under warranty and had my tuned computer warranted, the only real problem has been with Diablo sport, like twice a year my car gets an update and when it does my check engine light won't go off until I call them and get a custom tune.
JLT intake or bust! Louder whine, bigger filter, more air flow
It looks better than the stock intake So that’s part of a beautiful car is inside and out 👍✌️🇨🇦
Yours was supposed to come with a tube that connects the front of the intake to the air catcher headlamp. You probably got the wrong one
Edut: nvm. I saw the tube
Appreciate it bro
Well I think it protects it from water
I have a cover from afe that protects it from water though without restricting it from air
it needs to be tuned,
Forgot to let it idle! Thats the only way you know if its sucking hot air from engine. Running any closed/open intake with headlight vent, will read fresh air. My hellcat intake in my rt is 8 degrees higher than outside when running.
But is it a true temp reading? If the sensor is within the engine bay ( where all the heat is) you don’t think the temperature is affected whether it’s fresh air or not? The engine bay gets way too hot to be an accurate reading whether sensor is in a tube or not. Just my opinion.
Definitely cooler air enclosed
I don't understand why ppl want a loud car i don't like all that noise and the fastest cars in the world you'll never hear coming
it's the supercharger whine that is wanted to be amplified along with exhaust. These are MUSCLE cars ya know. lol. If you can't hear them, where is the muscle???
For the challengers and chargers probably not because they already have exceptionally good cold air intake boxes from the factory.
If you ever changed an air intake on one of these cars, you know that it has a special hole in the fender to draw air from that is completely separate from the engine bay. Most cold air intakes do not utilize this properly and so are pulling hot air from the engine bay instead of from the outside.
That said even though I'm pretty damn sure a cold air intake does absolutely nothing for these cars I still purchased one just because I like the way it looks.
Yep! Absolutely right. But this intake takes advantage of that with a huge hole at the bottom as it was made especially for this car. So it’s drawing air from bottom as well just like stock.
Does the open CAI suck cold air from the vent in the hood though?
Yes, it does
Inter cooler will solve that. Water to air one
If it was me I would stay with the open air intake and try to get more air in the engine bay some how. ( try to open events little more,) . So your intake is only taking in hot wile your idling
True! When the air isn’t circulating under there at idle, the air is crazy hot.
Is there a horsepower difference ? Between the 2 intakes
It felt like the open setup gave it way more torque, maybe a few horses, but not many
@@curt1star05 Torque is more important than HP.
@@curt1star05 You should have them compared on a Dynamometer.
Very true!!!
Lol. At least you have peace in you mind.
Yep! 😂. Appreciate you checking out the video!
Yes sir. I subscribed. Keep up the great work.
so you saying you got less whine than stock with this?
More whine than setup, even more whine with the open intake setup.
@@curt1star05 than setup?
Yep
whats "setup"? more whine than stock you mean?
@@hrantmelody the open afe setup. Or jlt open setup. They are super loud
