That's pretty cool, who needs a cowl CAI when you can just draw in air strait from the hood lol.

Thanks for the comments. The intake tube enters the air box below the filter so water wouldn't touch the filter. There is a small drain hole in the bottom
of the air box. I have only seen evidence (dry) of a small amount of water in the bottom of the box. No problem. Another pic.

Thanks. My Cherokee is in storage right now, probably has some mice living down there in the air box. Hope not.
If you do the mod, enjoy. I thought it was a lot of fun.

Wow! Comfy looking home. Hope that doesn't happen to mine. I read, after putting it in storage, that I should have put a wad of steel wool up the tail pipe, I guess one in the intake couldn't hurt either.

What more could they want? Soft, warm, plenty to eat. Couldn't have packed much more in there.
