You need to be at over 250hp to have exhaust restriction with the stock exhaust. The advantage of an after market exhaust is primarily in a smaller can which means less heat dissipation and greater exhaust velocity on a 2.5" system.

Whats everyones thoughts on the True Flow XDI air intake? I have an opportunity on one locally that is in really good shape. I thought of picking it up for some on road performance but go back to the stock air box for offroading.

Had one for 2 weeks and got rid of it because I started to run rich. The metal tube conducts alot of heat which negates the whole cold air intake concept even further when it comes to a JK. There's no warranty or support for these systems anymore as Trueflow went out of business in 2009 and for some reason I really dont like the foam filter. If you decide to buy an intake buy one with a plastic/poly based tube.

Thanks, defenitly not getting it then. Thats probably why i got offered a good deal on it. I guess i'll pass then and keep an eye out on ebay for a good intake.

I added an Airaid along with a Flashpaq on my 2dr 6 speed and I am very happy with the results. Running 295/70/17 on Classic II's and these two add on's really make a noticable difference.

well if it's abt the poly based inlet tube then i wuld go for K&N..but the dealer suggests tht i get the Mopar ones,or else installing any other filter wuld void the dealer's warranty..in tht case,i might have to change it back to the stock filters b4 i drop@the service centre for every 5k service..
