RIPP 2012 JK Cold Air Kit
Hey guys - RIPP has been testing the 2012 JK Cold air kit for 6 months now - Clients are very happy with the results . . this is a simple bolt on that really adds Low-end grunt the the 3.6 -
The HP and Torque gains are very noticeable in the low to mid RPM jumping as high as 20ft/lbs right off idle.
Not to mention the RIPP CAI is the only CAI kit that is compatible with most snorkel systems (when available for the 2012)

In terms of power - no - there is no advantage to a snorkel

Is it safe to use with out the snorkel with an AEV hood? Any chance of pulling water into the cai through the screened hole on the AEV hood? Do you sell silicone elbows & hose?

Or torque...
Ain't gonna happen...
Not with just an intake...
No way.
Ripp, I've got a brand new 2012 six speed Rubicon coming, and I have access to both a Dynojet and Mustang dyno.
Ship me one and I'll gladly do an unbiased test on both dynos.
If I see those gains, I'll buy it and eat my words.
I've dynoed hundreds of cars, and I just don't believe those numbers can be gained with just an intake alone.
Sorry.

Your welcome to buy one and conduct an independent test and since we've only dyno'd one (our own) but sold over 50+ with no complaints we think they are working as advertised. Our Facebook page has a few clients bragging about them right now.
This test was also done during the break in period of the 2012 - at best that could have attributed to the power gain as well.. but now our 2012 is under the knife getting a supercharger... so it will be a minute before we retest it.
We'll see if we can do another in house test.
EDIT: You do understand that the gain here is 5-10hp and 10-20ft/lbs of torque cold and peak and in the last pass it splits power gains right down the middle! so its credible to say that you gain 5-10 rear wheel HP and 10-15ft/lbs of trq. AND That the top line is torque and the bottom straighter line is HP. We did several pass' to see what it would gain and lose (cold and hot) as a proper demonstration of the product!

Back on topic, I am very interested in one of these for my 2012 i'll be purchasing, HOWEVER i'll be holding off until someone comes out with a snorkel for the 2012 specifically. Love to hear what some of the guys who bought one of these think of it.

No offense or anything but that's just outright rude. Ripp is a reputable vendor not just on here but among many popular automotive groups. Their reputation precedes them and for you to call them out with no credible evidence to support your claim is just despicable. You make the rest of us look horrible when you do that.

Video added on original post as well as response -
On your second point - With this kit you can run the 2007-2011 AEV kit - Because our kit over rides the stock box... We can set you up with the connection from the snorkel to the air filter.
