The installation is straightforward as it fits like the original part. Some minor sanding may be needed for sharp plastic edges from manufacturing. It is recommended to follow your factory service manual for installation.
Show original supplier description
The Mopar PUG lower intake manifold (part number 05281803AA) is an upgraded component for the Pentastar 3.6L engine, offering improved induction and better port geometry than previous designs. This manifold is specifically from the 3.6L found in 2018+ Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, and Ram vehicles. While installation is generally simple, minor modifications like sanding down sharp plastic edges might be necessary for optimal flow. It is recommended to consult your factory service manual during the installation process. This manifold is compatible with a range of 3.6L Pentastar engines, including those found in 2012-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK, Charger/Challenger, Ram trucks, and minivans. The 3.6L V6 FFV 24V VVT engine is also listed as compatible. The source mentions that 2018+ Jeep Wrangler JL models already feature this lower manifold. While specific performance gains are difficult to quantify without direct testing, the improved design suggests a positive effect on engine performance. Users have reported a more "peppy" feel and noticeable improvements right off idle after installation, particularly when combined with other upgrades like fuel injectors and exhaust systems.
