Freaking sweet!!!!!! Once again you guys have made this design one step above awesome!!!!! I really like the way you paid close attention to air flow and the overall function over form. I am still loving the design. Can't wait for it to come out. I'm liking the drivers side storage idea......... If any one can do its rugged ridge. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to the end product
. Will the final product be sent with both upper and lower intakes so we can change them out if we wanted? Or is it going to be lower only and the upper extra? Thanks again guys.

(1) 17756.06 - This is the snorkel kit with low mount only
(2) 17756.07 - This is the snorkel kit with high mount only
(3) 17756.20 - This is the snorkel kit with both high and low mount kit
As we get to market I can also see us adding the two intakes as stand alone part numbers as well as other intake designs.

already works for the 2011.. That is what we will be running it on for the Dyno test... As for 2012 (what I have) we will need to change the lower air box design, if unable to modify tooling, and a new air tube will need to be shaped. Work on that will begin after final approval of the 2007-2011 kit.
I will pass along the idea regarding the cowl cover...

so with the packages you listed, it seems the expectation is for folks to either want the high profile or low profile setup? Any idea of how much extra buying both snorkels is going to cost? I know personally, my biggest draw is the modular setup that would allow me to rock the low profile 90% of the time, and tack on the high profile when I decide to take my jeep in the pool! I guess what I'm getting at was in my mind, the snorkel system by default was going to be the low profile base with the high profile intake, and then the optional pieces were going to be the different prefilters. Is this in correct?

"(3) 17756.20 - This is the snorkel kit with both high and low mount kit"
Yes to the second question... as a modular system we will offer it in a base form.. Low intake and the next step would be the high intake.
The Full Kit will be option #3...
We will expand the filter mount offerings as demand shows the need.... The better the system sells the more likely we will expand the lineup. This could also include other model Jeeps and 4x4's....
Basic biz would be to see how well it does before you send more money.

Very cool. In terms of the prices we saw at sema then, is option 3 going to be that $400 price point, and the other options will be cheaper?
