Decided to take the plunge and get an AFE Intake for the 3.6L. I've had them on my BMW in the past and have always preformed great and have had a great fit.
I also opted to get the Pro Guard (Yellow) Filter, as this helps with Filtration and Engine Protection more than other filters that AFE offers, so this should be good for off-roading. Here are a few pictures that I took during the install. I really wanted to low end growl once I get on the jeep, and this product did just that. I'm not concerned about HP numbers, but I can tell that I thought the car did feel a bit more lively, and sounded really, really good past the 3.7K RPM mark.
Enjoy.
moving these over was a PITA - FYI!
Intake is off / TB
Where the MAF goes. Hard to pull off, but just take some time once you turn 1/4 full circle, and transfer over to the new intake tube.
These 2 bolts have a poor fitment in the top left corner. It's not horrible, but AFE could have designed these better with another bend in the metal.
...and all done!
