Okay, I'm thinking my next mod will be an Airaid. Is the $300 plus cost worth it in your experience?

 

I don't think it can't hurt...Fit & finish of Airaid is very good...
Looks good when opening hood...If you want it get it...
Got mine the 1st month i got my JK...

 

I have the Airaid CAI on my 2012 and do not notice much of a difference in performance. You get a slight growl when you hit the gas but nothing really else to write home about. After saying all that, is it worth it, yes, I'd put in another if I hadn't already done so.

If you were after more sound from your jeep, you'll probably want to put in an after market exhaust. I put in the DynoMax 2012-Up JK Evolution Competition Exhaust System and love it.

 

I have the air raid. I have noticed no difference. It does sound good but only in the higher revs.

 

I'm running a K&N CAI and like it. It seems to add alittle more power and some MPG.

 

It's an internet myth that CAI's add mpg. Check K&N's website and you'll see that they don't claim to increase mpg.

More air=More fuel

These airaid reviews are good, are they the only choice for pentastars?

 

cai alone... not much of a difference. cai w/ exhaust plus superchips tune.... definitely worth it

 

I agree. In all the cars/jeeps/trucks that I have owned and installed a CAI, it resulted in lower mpg, especially if coupled with a performance exhaust

 

I've got the AEM cold air kit in gun metal gray and it looks good. Fit and finish is very good and it sounds cool too. As far as power, just keep your expectations low with any cold air kit. They don't do too much.

 

I have the AFE, my brothers buddy has the Banks, and I forget what my brother is running...but we are all happy with the CAI. So I think its worth it even if the results in power and or mpg is miniscule. Besides...it sounds really cool.
