I am being granted the ability to spend some money from the wife and so I was wondering what would get more power intake or exhaust ??

 

Thats quite the difference in price... Personally i'd go with exhaust (since its far more expensive) and do a drop in k&n filter later... If ur looking for cai, you're limiting your water fording ability unless u get a sealed system... I've done both intake and exhaust and am happy with the perceived improvement... Butt dyno says i've gained 10hp, but that could all be wishful thinking... The sound improvement alone is enough for me to be happy...

 

If you can swing it do them both, they sound great together. If not go w/the exhaust.

 

I initially went with K&N drop in filter, then saved up for my Dynomax exhaust under $100 ( got a write up somewhere), now i'm saving for a snorkle.

 

i have both - the CAI will give you imediate throttle resopnse that you can feel. the exhaust alone just sounds a lil louder but together they work nicely. IMO the exhaust alone pob wont give you as much improved "feel" as the CAI alone. So i vote you get both to really open her up, but i would get the CAI first then the exhaust.

 

If you are looking for a power gain. Then you need all ( 3 ). Ya I said "3". You need a new intake, exhaust and tuner. If you have limited funds, go with the exhaust first. This will have the least affect on your OE tune. For best results, you should do the intake and the tuner at the same time.

 

That's a tough one. I first got the AEM brute air intake and it sounds awesome but only when ur getting over 3k rpms. So a month went by and I saw the dual exhaust from Gibson, so I had to have it! And man you wanna make some noise having both just makes your jeep rumble. I can send you a video if you want. Overall the air intake costed 260 at carid.com and was an easy install. And the exhaust I got on amazon for 320 but it's on sale now. That wasn't too bad to install just need a saw and elbow greese.
