Default Air Intake
Does anyone know why Banks Ram Air doesnt list 2010 as a year it will fit? Also does anyone have any experience with either K&N or Banks intake systems?

I have an '11 JKU with a banks ram air and magnaflow exhaust. Much smoother acceleration and doesn't downshift when taking hills like it did when stock, I average 20.5 MPG. However it does drone occasionally around 70MPH.

What's your setup? I've been thinking of this setup intake exhaust. "drone" like loses power or sound or what? Thanks!

What motor is in the '11? What lift/tire setup are you running? Im thinking about BDS 3 inch lift with either 35s or 33s

I have '10 JKU. put k&n intake with flowmaster exhaust. Love it sounds with slight improvement in mpg. Also quicker throttle response.

I have a cat back magnaflow, the banks ram air drones as in making a constant humm kinda deep pitched but no loss of power just when cruising around 70. I have no complaints what so ever.

To be specific it's only at 1800 when in OD, not a constant humm, more of a low hmmm hmmm hmmm when cruising at 1800 RPM.

I've got a K&N with a Magnaflow exhaust on my 08 with 35's. Noticeable difference in throttle response, but still hunts for the right gear on the highway.
