Update: still liking the price and performance on this kit. It’s been a great upgrade to my jeep.

Good job on this video, enjoyed the testing you did as well with this one.
I am impressed that there was actually a colder air difference, I have put a couple of them on trucks in the past especially when I lived 60 plus miles away from work, did it for a little bit better millage and it eventually paid for itself, plus, i do think it sounds cool when its sucking the air, like you showed on the end of the video. Fun stuff. thanks again and have a blessed week my friend.

So I'm planning on getting a RedRock 4×4 Cold Air Intake Kit for my 07 Rubicon 4 door, but I'd like to get that mesh water resistant cover for it. Unfortunately, the filter on the RedRock one is a lot bigger so the one you showed would definitely not fit. Could anyone help with a similar mesh net to protect the exposed filter from water? I'd rather not get a snorkel.
Congrats on getting Hoodwinked on this snake oil.
A fool and his money are easily parted.
I would love that for my 2014 jeep
Still liking it? Any issues? I went ahead and ordered the same setup you Have (with the pre-filter). Should be here this week. Can’t wait to try it out. I’ve been on the fence for a while and your video pushed me over lol.
Any check engine lights after?
Can you run a dry filter on it?
Oil filters dont run so well in the desert.
Ben, very cool mod. Would look great on Lola, my 2006 Jeep Wrangler LJ.
After connecting the sensor, does the "check engine" light come on?
My god what is the beeping in the background!?!
Good review, but you had the heat issue backwards.
Aluminum is not a good heat sink so it wicks heat away better. Comparable Plastics are actually slightly porous, and tends to be more of a heat sink.
This is why aluminum rads, and inter-coolers are so good at what they do.
