The K&N 69-2544TP is a Typhoon cold air intake for the 3.6L V6 in the Chrysler 300, Dodge Challenger, and Dodge Charger. It uses a mandrel-bent aluminum intake tube in a polished finish, paired with an oversized conical filter in red cotton gauze with a chrome end cap. It is a full replacement for the factory filter and intake tube rather than a filter-only upgrade, so it suits buyers who want a smoother air path without the cost of a forced-induction kit. The washable, reusable filter is meant to be cleaned and reinstalled, which lowers long-term running costs compared with buying disposable paper filters.
Fitment is the first thing to verify. Published year coverage for this kit varies across sources, so confirm your exact model year and submodel before ordering. A CARB Executive Order number is listed for this part, which matters for California and other CARB states. For DIY installers, the job is a bolt-on with basic hand tools, and the heat shield sits where the factory airbox previously occupied space. Long-tail searches this part targets include "Chrysler 300 3.6L cold air intake," "Challenger 3.6L Typhoon intake install," "K&N 69-2544TP CARB," and "polished mandrel bent aluminum intake 3.6 V6."
Published year ranges differ from source to source, and they span multiple generations of the Chrysler 300, Challenger, and Charger. The manufacturer's application catalog is the authoritative reference, so check your exact year and submodel there before buying.
A CARB Executive Order number is listed for this part, but the manufacturer directs buyers to its catalog to confirm CARB status for each vehicle and intake combination. Verify your specific vehicle before ordering if you live in a CARB state.
Install time is commonly quoted between about 60 and 90 minutes, and the kit is designed for basic hand tools. Before you start, confirm the 5 clamps and 2 couplers in the box match your factory hardware layout, and dry-fit the tube so the heat shield clears the engine bay and the filter sits without touching the hood or fender. Tighten clamps evenly once everything is aligned, and check for air leaks at each coupler.
