went from 14mpg to 16.5 mpg since the cowl snorkle mod and IAT relocation 
an my lights are all fully functional now too(on light needed a new bulb) i think i want 2 more lights on the bumper
the plan as of now is on saturday to take off at least my front doors and wire up my zj door plugs. iwant to get the rears off too but it depends how much energy ive got since its my only day off and ive gotta work 2 80 hour weeks after that..

I used trailer plugs on the rear since I only had 5 wires. Plus once you do the fronts the rears go way faster.
Remind me again, you did your own cowl and what about the IAT relocation?

not alot to report. been supper busy at work. i.e ive worked 3 80 hour weeks in a row so not much time for anything but sleep. lol
however today i gave her a good wash and touched up some nicks in the plastidip, and peeled the dip off the gas door just cause. then unpluged the pcm and smeared all the connectors with some di-electric grease, seems to run eerily smooth now..
havent gotten much farther on doorless. i might work on the wiring tommoro depending on if i ever get motivated enough
i also ordered:
-1'' grease-able zone shackles
-hood vents
and im waiting for a final response on some RE 3.5'' coils/adjustable super flex UCA and LCA/ bilstein 5100s.
ive got a lot of parts stock piled up. idk if ill do much on the xj this month since ill be so busy in november setting up christmas for the park. ill probly start tearing in to this project again in january depending on weather. luckily it doesnt stay cold here for long
i think ill bedline the roof eventually too
