Chrome intake with K&N
 

These intake kits are all over ebay for for $50. Are they worth it, or
should I just spring for the K&N kit, which is about $200 more?

This would be for a '97 Grand Cherokee ....4.0 liter engine.

Thanks...

Re: Chrome intake with K&N
 

Well..... Even the K+N has been shown by folks on this group that it
passes dust through.

I like to have my engines running really well and I stick with stock
paper filters.

Being able to breath more air in doesn't really help a 4.0 unless there
is some place for it to go so if you put on some headers and a 'cat
back' and maybe a cam, then it might be worth the extra dust and wear,
maybe....

Just my $0.02,

Thanks Mike...I'll stick with paper filters. This engine has 120k on it,
and I'd like to put on as many more as possible.

Re: Chrome intake with K&N
 

I've always run a K&N intake on my 91 YJ -- AZ, NM, NV, UT and the
mid-atlantic states. I've got 255K on my Wrangler and it's still going
strong. Therefore, I don't much believe that the K&Ns are any less capable
than the OEM paper filters. Proofs in the pudding.
