Increasing power from my TJ

Excuse my ignorance, which intake kit are you talking about?

(CAI) Cold Air Intake. In most instances, this refers to an open filter on the end of the intake tube. Because its located under the hood, its drawing air heated by the engine so a better term would be a Hot Air Intake (HAI). To actually get cold air, it needs to come from outside the engine bay (e.g. via the grille, hood or cowl)

Thanks, I'm still not good at translating acronyms. You were very clear. I'm still using my original air filter box.😅

Sorry, I had to do it. My 4 cylinder Jeep did everything perfect offroad. I could maintain 70 mph highway on flat ground with 30" tires. A 4.0L with 3.07 gears isn't much better IMO.

The only thing that I could say was a "pro" having a 2.4 was the accessibility to the timing components and belt drive. Beyond that, it sucked. Very little information about it online and had to spin it up to 3500 just to get over it's own weight. Mine wouldn't do 70 on 30" tires (4.10 gears, NV2550).
