Volant Intake
I installed a Volant CAI about a week and a half ago, and installed the cooltech exhaust last weekend. After installing the Volant I noticed a growl from the engine - rather liked it - it at least showed there was something in there. I also noticed a weeeeee bit improvement in power and MAYBE mileage. After I installed the cooltech I noticed much more improvement in power - in that I did not have to shift when doing 83 up hills with the cruise on - and also better mileage. It also sounds more like I'd think a jeep should sound.
I ordered it from Quadratec, it took about 3 or 4 weeks - but once they had it in stock I had it in three days. Installing it took me about 45 minutes, but I took my time and the instructions were pretty sparse. What took me longest is getting out the stock air box, the instructions said nothing on this, and I couldn't find out where the screws were at to remove - there weren't any, it just needed a good tugg and it popped out. Installing it was easy after that. The fit and finish is excellent. I took some pics and posted them here:

from looking at prior models - for the 4 liter L6 - it looks like that is where the snorkel would attach to if a snorkel is wanted - and they seem to sell the snorkels separately from the cai, anyway that is how i see them listed in catalogs, and the ones for the 4.0 liter were basically the same in design as far as having the inlet at the bottom for the snorkel.
