Meaning the "Air Hat" that connects directly to the throttle body?? I recently bought an intake kit off of eBay but it was for a 2001 ram not a 2002 and i did not fit in my truck If anyone has any other ideas of how to get rid of the restrictive intake pipe that is in there now please let me know. Thanks.

Won't work on the 5.9, the throttle body is mounted in a completely different way with a much bigger mouth than the one on the 5.7.

Incorrect. A CIA that helps keep the air a little colder by enclosing the filter and sucking the air from outside the hot engine compartment, like a Volant, will work slightly better than any filter setup that pulls hot air from inside the engine bay.

However, I cannot argue with you on price. I got my Volant for my 2001 on a 4th of July sale or something along those lines, at about $250.

He has the 5.9L V8, not the Hemi.
