aFe Momentum GT Pro-GUARD 7 Cold Air Intake Jeep Wrangler JL / Gladiator JT | 75-76217

Overview

The aFe Momentum GT Pro-GUARD 7 Cold Air Intake System (Part #75-76217) is a premium, bolt-on performance upgrade engineered specifically for 2018–2026 Jeep Wrangler JL and Gladiator JT owners running the 3.6L Pentastar V6. Replacing your restrictive factory airbox with a CAD-designed, dyno-tuned roto-molded system, it delivers up to +12 HP and +12 lb-ft of torque while outflowing the stock intake by up to 36%. Whether you're hitting the trail or dominating daily commutes, this is the best cold air intake for your 2018+ Jeep Wrangler JL 3.6L Pentastar.

Key Features & Benefits

• +12 HP & +12 lb-ft Torque Max Gains — Dyno-proven power gains over the factory intake, adding measurable performance right out of the box.
• 36% Increased Airflow Over Stock — The CAD-designed, dyno-tuned roto-molded intake tube maximizes airflow volume for a stronger throttle response and engine efficiency.
• Patented Pro-GUARD 7 Filter Media (US PAT 06811588) — The only filtration media of its kind to hold a U.S. patent. Features 5 layers of progressively finer mesh cotton gauze oiled media plus 2 layers of progressive synthetic media, achieving up to 99.7% cumulative filtration efficiency for maximum engine protection.
• Massive 5" × 8" Inverted-Top Filter — Designed around the largest filter possible to maximize available air volume and performance. The pre-oiled filter delivers exceptional flow with superior protection.
• One-Piece Roto-Molded Sealed Housing — Constructed from heat-resistant, high-density black cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE). Eliminates multi-piece airbox complexity, seals out hot underhood air, and maintains the factory water-fording height for off-road capability.
• Built-In Sight Window — Inspect filter condition at a glance without disassembling the airbox — a first in sealed intake design.
• Built-In Resonance Chambers — The roto-molded intake tube incorporates chambers that minimize unwanted intake drone while accentuating a throaty engine induction sound under load.
• Unique Patent-Pending Filter-to-Housing Interface — Maximizes usable filter size while dramatically simplifying the installation process by reducing part count.
• Premium Stainless Steel T-Bolt Clamps — Included hardware provides superior corrosion resistance and clamping force, ensuring a secure, leak-free connection in all conditions.
• True Bolt-On Installation — No Cutting or Drilling — Mounts directly to factory locations using OEM hardware points. No computer tuning required. Completion in approximately 1 hour with basic hand tools.
• Washable & Reusable Filter — The Pro-GUARD 7 filter is re-oilable and reusable, eliminating recurring costs of disposable paper filters. Use aFe's Filter Restore Kit (90-50000) for maintenance.
• CARB Compliant — Meets California Air Resources Board (CARB) emissions standards. Legal for use in all 50 U.S. states.
• 2-Year Manufacturer Warranty — aFe stands behind its products with a 2-year limited warranty for peace of mind.
