Engineered specifically for 2006 through 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD/3500 and GMC Sierra 2500HD/3500 trucks powered by the 6.6L Duramax V8 turbo diesel engine (LBZ and late LLY codes), the aFe Momentum HD Cold Air Intake System (Part # 50-74003) is designed to supply unrestricted, dense airflow. Factory intake boxes on common-rail diesels restrict high-volume airflow under demanding towing and performance tuning applications.

The aFe Momentum HD system solves this by enclosing a massive 360-degree radial flow air filter inside a unique one-piece sealed roto-molded housing. This design captures cool ambient air directly from the front of the truck while preventing hot under-hood engine air from entering. Featuring a clear sight window for effortless filter inspection and premium stainless steel hardware, this bolt-on kit installs seamlessly using factory mounting locations with zero core charge.

Key Features & Benefits

• +57% Airflow Increase: Outflows the restrictive factory airbox significantly, reducing turbo spool lag and lowering exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs).
• Proven Dyno Gains: Delivers measured laboratory gains of up to +21 horsepower and +56 lbs. x ft. of torque.
• Massive Pro 10R Air Filter: Utilizes a huge 9-inch tall, 1,000 CFM filter featuring 10 layers of progressive oiled cotton media for superior dust-holding capacity and 99.59% cumulative filtration efficiency.
• Unique One-Piece Sealed Housing: Roto-molded XLPE housing features an integrated auxiliary air scoop and a clear sight window for quick visual filter checks without disassembly.
• Dyno-Tuned Intake Tube: Computer-designed, heat-resistant cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) intake tube ensures a smooth, turbulent-free air charge into the turbocharger.
• Zero Core Charge: Brand-new outright performance upgrade requiring no core deposit or core return shipping.
