Me and my buddy decided to make
a CAI for his 2000 and my 95. tell me what you think.


Both are sealed and cost overall around 40 bucks to make them both, that including the 30 bucks for the two air filters lol. Can feel a strong power difference in my little 4 banger.

Just some more random pics I took. and some pics of our fender wells. painted them gloss black on both cherokees. silver and black is my buddys, red is mine.

Gee oh Dee

Are there any inlets for the CAI to grab air from outside the engine bay?

xj_maniac_newb

yeah, removed air damn in red one with inlet holes behind headlight, and 5 1 1/4 holes in the black one

Gee oh Dee

Nice. Careful with splashing!

xj_maniac_newb

haha I try to be, hopefully the placement for the holes will help. the sound it makes sounds pretty B.A. too

I suggest an AEM air bypass valve......

xj_maniac_newb

what is that?

DIRTDOGXJ

It goes inline on the intake tube. If you suck up water (potentially hydrolocking), little flaps open inside so you still get fresh air and not pond scum puddle water into your engine

xj_maniac_newb

not a bad idea, my jeep doesn't get drove through water. She rarely leaves the road lol. Now the silver jeep.. that's a different story. I'd say he very well needs that lol. Also, a good hydrolocking would give me a good excuse for an upgrade to the 4.0

Its well worth the money for piece of mind....I've had them on two Hondas where the cai was 5-6 inches off the ground, saved my motor a few times. When I do my homebrewed cai, I will definitely incorporate one.

xj_maniac_newb

that's true. I may have to look into getting it, peace of mind is nice

Gee oh Dee

A link would be really awesome...

Gee oh Dee

I plan to eventually run my intake in a place where I can easily hear it.

haha idk if that's a joke or not, but either way I agree
