I just got the cheap dupli color stuff cause it was around $80. I don't really think there could be much of a difference between that and $100 stuff.

I like it, it's really loud and if I really hammer on the skinny pedal it sounds like turbo spool lol makes it sound like a race car and I guess it helps fuel milage a little too lol.

Just ordered extended brake lines and a t case drop kit. I want to go up 2 more inches with spacers and shackles so it levels out at 5", then I guess I have to change the name of my build lol

Yea 3" with 35s May look good but it gets annoying fast, I damn near ripped the front of my fender off today going down a curb and my rear bottoms out going over train tracks. I think just a little higher will work perfectly ( maybe only 4.5") I haven't decided on how much higher I wanna go so I haven't bought shackles. And as for the shocks I'm gonna leave those as they are, my buddy has the same ones and is up to 7" of lift and still flexes like mad.

Nice just did a basic cai on my 89' plugged a vac line and let the filter hang there lol. Mine is rather quiet even when I hammer the skinny pedal was really surprised how quiet it is but throttle response is up and jeep moves a bit better. Im planning on a 5.5" lift with 1.59" blocks and 5.5" RE coils with the 35s Iv yet to put on lol.

Yea there's 2 main ways to do a cowl CAI and the setup that I have is where the filer is in the cowl and it goes strait to the throttle body, that's the loud version. And what are you waiting for put those 35s on lol
