it did help me some, but as you can see, i am still running stock tires. I live on Green Mountain in huntsville, and my JK used to hunt between 2nd and 3rd gear going up. Now it locks and unlocks the torque converter. I get 19 MGP city, but i didn't have the jeep long enough without the CAI to really get a feel of what it was like before. I get nervous crossing water, hydrolock, but i do feel like it is a better design than factory, water can just drain away if it does splash into the intake box. I am considering fabricating a cover for the box, so it can only get air from the grill, and any water splashed on top will not get to the filter.

Have you heard anything about the volant intake and snorkel set up? That is at the moment what i am leaning towards any thoughts or know anyone that is running this set up. I have heard snorkel hurts performance and mpg and i have heard it helps i want to know the real truth about it I drive me jeep at least 50 miles a day so gas sucks now and i do not want to do something to it if it will hurt it bad.
But i will deffentatly be doing this to my grill what you have on yours soon. did you paint black or bed line it? if you bed line do you have to sand it?

Hey guys,
I was looking for a good resource in locating trails around the area, and I came up empty handed. I wasn't sure if you guys were in this boat too.
Anhow, I was thinking about starting a thread to list all of the trails in the area - up to about 2 hours away from Huntsville. I only know the location of a few places (chigger canyon and a few of the off road parks). So I was wondering if you guys could list any trails you know about, where they're located (GPS coords or address), and how hard they are. I'll start compiling a list, and I'll either put a website up or start a new thread listing the reqions.
Any thoughts?

Presently, my personal view is to keep that info somewhat close hold and hidden from scrutiny by the general public (I think this is a policy common between two or three of the local offroad clubs, and most likely the reason you don't already have access to an existing list ).

Off-road Parks
For clarification, in my post above I was speaking solely about the "non-park" off-road locations. Glad Dennis listed the public ones, although I think he should have started the list with Mountainside as the more I visit other off-road park venues, the more I'm convinced that it is one of the premier parks in the South. We are very lucky to have it so close by, and reasonable with respect to cost ($10).
