Thinking of putting 2 side by side in a custom shroud

Dam thats cool, Kern River is always a blast.

If anyone is looking for a Zj parts vehicle, I might know a guy that's trying to get rid of one, 4.0 has 30k miles on it, the body computer??? Went out and he don't want to deal with it. If he still has it he was asking 800.

How do you like that cowl intake? Any review you'd like to share about it?

I just walked in from installing it. I slipped up and drilled the mount holes to big, so had to rummage to find wider screws. Siliconed it, started it up, thought it was going to be louder, but actually pretty quiet. Haven't driven it, waiting for the silicone to fully cure. Ill repost after drive.

Those are incredibly bright. They get hot?
And I noticed your headlights off in all of the pictures, is that just for the camera? Or do they draw a ton with all the lights on?

Alright, took her for a spin: you can really hear it accelerating up to 2k rpm, then at cruising its quiet, 2200 rpms up to 3k you can hear it. My stereo is louder, so I don't care. She is getting cold air now, and a lil better in the water.

And, I have a perfect spot for my second battery

Nice, I'm getting one...I'll be mounting a small compressor in place of the air box.
Thanks for the review!

LEDs draw almost no power and produce no heat. My headlights are HIDs and it's pretty much the same story for those compaired to hallogen bulbs. They are mainly off so I'm not blinding my spotter


Trip to the junkyard today got me a new hvac controll so I can stop being pissed when it doesn't work haha

The finally have about 90% of the stuff for my intake and ps cooler install. Still waiting on one 90 degree elbow to get the filter where I want it and a pre cleaner for the filter. I also have a 9" fan coming to cool the cooler
