Default Intake system worth it?

Is the trail jammer throttle body and intake system worth it? anyone know if it does what it claims to?

I would be interested in it if i had feedback on it. Thanks

Maybe if it was $50, it would be.

i could think of better ways to spend that kind of money... get a throttle body and build a snorkle then youll have money left over to bedline your entire jeep or buy new front and rear bumpers.

just my .02

Lol 20% hp increase??? Let's see some dyno figures. No warm air intake, tb, and "chip" is going to get you 35+hp on the 4.0. Take your $650 with shipping and get a short ram, cowl, or snorkel intake, Bored tb at strokedjeep.com, upgraded injectors 703's or 784's, and open up the exhaust to 2.5" all the way through. You'll still have $ left over.

I agree. Bought a CAI off ebay for $14 plus $18 shipping. No throttle body but it looks good , sounds better than oem breather & if only in my mind feels more responsive. Save your money
