what i did here seein as i own an older RENIX 4.0L (no one makes **** for these engines so ya gotta do it your self)

any way i took a piece of 3" stainless exhaust pipe in a 12" length cut the needed holes for the hses from the airbox i brazzed on the needed fittings and went out and got the biggest K&N filter they had(6X9K&N w/3" mouth) slapped it all together and tossed that crappy old restrictive airbox and havent had a regret

Pros: Nice sound
Cons: Doesnt do much for the 2.5L
Recommended? Yes

Comments: Don't waste your money on a exspensive intake because the power increase isnt noticeable, just build your own. Does have a nice sound in higher RPM's.

Price: $0.01
Pros: Fast; easy; made a world of difference.
Cons: Must replace filter sooner.
Recommended? Yes

Comments: Not really a product, but a mod. I took my airbox out, and the tube running from the airbox to the front of the car. I took the tube, and clipped all the pieces allowing air restriction off. I cut it so it would take air directly from the fan. When I started the car after I did all this, it ran incredibly smoother, with less vibration and less noise. Also, the throttle is a lot more responsive. I will be adding a cold air intake to the car soon, but for a temporary fix, this is awesome.

Price: $65.00
Pros: More power I think, and my jeep is a little louder
Cons: None
Recommended? Yes

Comments: Cold air intakes are expensive and this is a third of the price. I hated the blow by in the stock intake and now I never have to deal with that again. Also I never need to buy a new filter because you can wash it. The iceing on the cake was how easy and quick it is.

Comments: I got my air intake from ebay it was cheap and gives the Jeep a good sound; it may not be a K&N but it still does its job. Would recommend changing the air filter with a quality one.

Price: $80.00
Pros: ORIGINAL POST: Inexpensive modification that increased mileage and hp. UPDATE: Only increased mileage at high RPM; lowered mileage around town.
Cons: ORIGINAL POST: Won't see full potential without an exhaust modification. UPDATE: bad filtration, found fine silt inside cone/stainless
Recommended? No

Comments: ORIGINAL POST: Polished stainless, open ended dry cone filter, water resistant dust cover. Found most of the parts on eBay. Half of the cost was the pre-filter

UPDATE: Gained (recovered) nearly 3mpg around town, lost 1mpg at 65mph since going back to the stock airbox with AC Delco air filter installed.
