Charge pipes carry pressurized air between the turbo and the intercooler. Aftermarket pipes are usually aluminum in place of plastic, which is about holding boost without splitting. This one is the AFE BladeRunner 3" Black Hot Side Intercooler Pipe 16-18 Ram 1500 3.0L EcoDiesel, listed to fit the 2016-2018 Ram 1500 with the 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 (DS, first-gen). The listing describes it as stainless steel, powder coated, aluminum.

why this one — This is a reliability part on a turbo truck. Buy it because a plastic pipe failed or you are raising boost, not for a power number. Diesel Power Products lists it at $205.35, and the fitment above is what the listing itself states, not a guess.

why no number is shown
