There’s no mistake, your Dodge Challenger is a fast and powerful vehicle. But even though its OEM parts are designed to make it stand out, you can get manifold upgrades that can unlock the Challenger’s high-performance potential. Top-tier intake manifold tubes, bypass valves, and air scoops, for example, will help the engine breathe better and stay cooler for longer. This is because these components come in larger sizes and boast less-restrictive designs. Meanwhile, some products, like air filter wraps, are designed to protect certain components of the system. This is to ensure that the parts that make up the manifold will last for a long time. When buying parts and accessories for Dodge Challenger manifolds, it’s important to find a reliable source. This way, you can be confident that the upgrades you’re getting have high-quality construction and performance. Luckily, you can rest assured that the products at AmericanMuscle are built to meet quality and industry standards. We carry items made by trusted and well-known manufacturers because we’re committed to providing only the best components that are worth your time and money. We also boast a wide range of intake manifold parts and plenums. Thanks to this, you can definitely get the upgrades you need to enhance your Challenger’s performance. Our catalog includes high-quality dynamic air scoops, air intake bypass valves, air intake tubes, and air filter minder restriction gauges.

Understanding 2008-2023 Dodge Challenger Intake Manifolds & Plenums
Your Dodge Challenger comes with a lot of power from the factory, even if you have a V6 engine under the hood, and you can thank your intake manifold for that. The intake manifold is located above the cylinder heads, and it has the important role of ensuring that the right amount of air and fuel is mixed in the cylinders for combustion. This is important because, without the right air and fuel mixture in the cylinders, you can kiss combustion goodbye. In fact, worn-out manifolds can misfire and cause other types of damage. While the intake manifold is important, it's not the only part that makes up the Challenger intake system, which is where the air intake and plenum come into play. The intake is what funnels air into the manifold, and the plenum acts as a storage area for the air before it flows into the cylinder heads to be mixed with fuel. All these parts have to work together to ensure maximum efficiency.
Benefits of 2008-2023 Dodge Challenger Intake Manifolds & Plenums
The biggest benefit of a new intake manifold is an immediate boost to your Dodge Challenger’s performance, especially when you pair it with a cold air intake and a tune. Even without a supporting cast of new parts, you'll find that you can net 10 to 20 horsepower with a new Holley or Edelbrock intake manifold. Intake manifolds will also help your Challenger engine breathe more clearly, which improves fuel efficiency, reduces the risk of misfires, and of course, makes your engine sound even better. There are also a few options you have to choose from, so you can customize your engine’s power at different RPMs when you swap out the manifold. Options tend to include high-ram Dodge Challenger manifolds that improve power at high RPMs (perfect for racing), and low-ram manifolds that improve power at mid-range RPMs, which is great for street driving. Each option is viable, so it comes down to your specific build. If you need a new Scat Pack intake manifold or a replacement option for your V6, we have everything you need. Our sales techs will help you find the perfect fit for your vehicle and build goals.
