Got any Pics of this Mod. I already have a snorkel I made but if this Mod is true and helps with gas usage I may have to look into this. Where is the AIT Sensor now? Pics Please? And where do you swap it to? Pics Please? And is this a good Mod for all year Cherokees?

honestly save your money on the intake. You gain maybe 3 hp, also if you ever take it through water or sludgy mud its a really good idea to keep the stock air box. If you want to upgrade look in the "cowl" intake.
