Air Intake??
Which air intake should I consider for my 6-speed 2007 Wrangler X? Advice from anyone? I was going to order from 4WD because I have some credit there but if I can find the intake cheaper somewhere else I'm liable to do that too. These are the brands available from 4WD:
AEM
aFe
Airraid
Banks
Edge
K&N
PureJeep
True Flow XDI
Volant
Thanks everyone!

Most of them are about the same. They flow more air than the stock air intake but since it pulls air from under the hood it is no colder than stock. In fact the stock intake goes up against the crack between the fender and the hood so it may actually pull colder air than the so called cold air intakes.
Most people that have them report they are much louder than stock and may give just a little extra power at higher freeway rpm's. Their opening is also 6-8 inches lower than the stock air box so you can hydrolock in water crossings much easier.
