DESCRIPTION

Product Overview

• The 5.9L 24V Cummins Turbo Diesel in 3rd Gen Dodge Ram 2500/3500 trucks delivers strong power and torque, but the factory cast intake elbow features restrictive passages and sharp bends that limit airflow efficiency.
  
• The High-Flow Intake Elbow Tube replaces the stock horn with a smooth mandrel-bent aluminum pipe. Improving airflow transition and intake volume, it helps support faster turbo response, better throttle feel, and improved performance under towing or high-boost conditions. Pre-drilled NPT ports allow easy boost gauge or accessory installation.

Key Features

• Heavy-Duty 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction: Features TIG-welded tubing and CNC-machined mounting flanges for reliable sealing under high boost pressure.
• Faster Turbo Response: Smooths intake airflow transitions to help improve boost response and overall engine performance.
  
• Improved Airflow Under Load: Reduces intake restriction to help support better throttle response and airflow during towing and high-boost conditions.
  
• Maximized Airflow Design: Replaces the restrictive OEM cast elbow with a smooth mandrel-bent aluminum pipe to improve airflow efficiency into the intake manifold.
  

FAQ

Q: What are the benefits over the OEM cast horn?

A: The larger 3.5" smooth-radius design reduces airflow restriction, improves throttle response, and supports better airflow on towing and high-performance Cummins builds.

Q: What are the two 1/8" NPT ports used for?

A: They allow easy installation of boost gauges, sensors, or other performance accessories without drilling and tapping the intake elbow. Unused ports can be sealed with the included brass plugs.

Q: Do I need to remove the factory grid heater?

A: No. This intake elbow retains the factory grid heater flange and installs directly using the included gasket and hardware.
