I was running a AF Dynamic on my old JKU. I think that jku from this video could be night from an oil catch can. There was a lot of oil in that throttle body.
Just be careful horsing around in the puddles with an 'open' cold air intake like that (not in a box with factory-like mini-snorkel) - You can easily suck in water and visit hydrolock central. I was running a similar Mopar intake, now I'm running a new engine :\
Volant CAI ($150 model) and Volant Throttle Body Spacer ($45 model) here. This looks like a good intake that I hadn't heard of. Most CAI's that are ABS plastic are all pretty much the same. There are some exceptions, such as enclosed boxes to prevent water intake and other vehicle designs. One of my biggest pet-peeves is some companies charging ridiculous amounts for parts, and CAI's are usually a battleground for this. There are few examples worth the $300-$500 price-points that they are demanding. It's funny, because a lot of the Jeep community lambasts CAI's, however they are proven technology for most vehicles.
I just installed this CAI onto my 2015 Jeep Willys and love the improvement. Instant feel in improved horsepower as well as a much deeper sound. Anxious to see if there's any mpg improvement.
I had an AEM Brute Force polished aluminum cold air intake, with the washable filter on my 2000 Tj. Definitely noticed better acceleration, throttle response, and mpg. Changed out an air raid throttle body spacer with a helix (don’t think they make em anymore) and also noticed faster times for my test section of road (uphill in Colorado on an on ramp to a 75mph speed limit sign.)Banks exhaust same results. More air in and more exhaust out= higher performance. I don’t even know why this is argued. Maybe the lack of quick cooling aluminum, funky designs, orientation of the air boxes , and tight bends of the CAI’s for the jk are too restrictive to show obvious results. Of course I think the straight 6 was a better engine, much more torquey, but that’s an opinion. 😂
I currently have the stock one that comes with the JK. Im glad you made a video like this because just this past week I started looking at some. Thanks my dude! Keep up the great videos!
do you have a sound deadening hardtop liner? If so, could you do a video on it? I'm trying to figure out if getting a boom mat sound deadener headliner is worth it
Just got my first Wrangler 3 weeks ago ( 2012 JKU) and been watching a lot of videos to see where to start with to mods. Do the cold air intakes help a lot?
and if you off road in wet conditions its a lot easier to mess up your engine . Seen a few i run with make the mistake and follow someone with stock intake and make the mistake and water gets sucked into the engin
What’s up AdventureDex loved the vid. I got so excited when I saw a new upload. Next vid you should do a spare tire brake light install, they look super clean!
Adventure Dex, Thank you for the videos brotha. I've learned a lot and found a lot of accessories due to your videos. But wouldn't a snorkel be more ideal when it comes to pulling in cold air? Since that style of intake is still under the hood and has heat coming from the engine, I'd imagine the air would be somewhat hot still even after being filtered. Just a question/thought. If anyone else has more an example or detailed reason I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks y'all.
I'm currently running the Mopar cold air intake and I think it's not that great and heat shield for it poor design and it's tube it metal and creates more heat.
@@adventuredex it is very throaty...great sound. You know we didn’t buy these for the MPGs 😂 Keep up the great vids sir! You get some great product & you do a fantastic job on the installs and narrating.
I'm surprised that still TO THIS DAY people buy into the cold air intake MYTH . Because this EXACTLY what it is .... A MYTH. Anyone with a minimum of mechanical knowledge and a little common sense should know that this gimmick does ABSOLUTELY nothing to improve performance. Any modern vehicle where the fuel map / timing etc are managed by an ECU , it will adjust itself no matter how much more air you give it. CAI are money down the toilet.
I don't know how much, if any, it helps horsepower, and probably you don't either, but if you think it improves mileage then I have a bridge over the East River in New York you might want to invest in. Manufacturers are under enormous pressure to meet CAFE standards, and have spent billions of dollars optimizing fuel economy. If a plastic tube could improve fuel economy to any measurable extent, it would come standard.

What Cold Air intake are you running on your Jeep?? #Jeepwave
I was running a AF Dynamic on my old JKU. I think that jku from this video could be night from an oil catch can. There was a lot of oil in that throttle body.
Yah a catch can would be a good idea!
@@adventuredex would make a good video too. There is a lot of opinions on how to and where to mount them as well.
I’ll do some research!!
running a Banks Power Cold Air intake. Sounds wicked awesome and can def feel some extra horsepower.
you should run the afe cold air intake it is very good and doesn't get affected by heat in the engine bay like some metal intakes
Installed mine finally and i love the sound of it on my jeep makes it sound like a v8 with the muffler delete🔥👏🏽
Loved the dumb split screen edit of throwing the intake back to yourself haha. Good stuff man.
😆😆😆😆 thanks! Glad you enjoyed
Just completed installing on 2017 Jeep JK. Sounds and rides a whole lot better, definitely can tell the difference.
Hey can I see the modifications you’ve done ?
I installed the full K & N chrome polished intake on my 2012 JKU and love the increased hp, mpg, ect... Definitely worth the $$$..
Awesome! Thanks for watching

how would water get in the engine bay tho?
@@ethang1955 you tell me.. I hydrolocked driving through a 10" deep puddle.
@@ethang1955 .....through the bottom?
@@ericdonelli1 2 years later? kinda baka of u
Love it! with my dual Gibson exhausts, got to get this. I'm running nothing just stock.
Same here im looking at some cold air intakes and a dual exhaust. Ive never worked on the engine before or anything mainly just body work
@@danielbutcher5259 try factory muffler delete it sounds loud and better than the exhaust system and it will save you some money :)
just installed the same cold air intake but also a throttle body spacer and bang it runs great and sounds killer !!
Volant CAI ($150 model) and Volant Throttle Body Spacer ($45 model) here. This looks like a good intake that I hadn't heard of. Most CAI's that are ABS plastic are all pretty much the same.

I too have a 2015 Willy’s JKU. Any MPG improvement? Looking to do this this summer. TIA ~Rich
Any update on things? Any issues today?
Nice video on the intake. I just have a question about your jpro cluster and how is it doing? Is it still holding up?
Is red rock and rough country the same? Sure looks like it.
Should i save up for a Volant or just get the Red Rock?
Hey Dex do you still have this? How do you like it and would you still recommend it?
Bro these vids age so well man 💪💪🍻🇨🇦🤣
I use a Ingen cold air intake and I love it!
Me too!
Why the open filter and not covered
I running the K&N with a super chip throttle response is awesome .
Nice combo!
I was running the AFE cold air intake on my 2016 JKU, now need to find one for my 2021 JLU
Nice!! Would you recommend AFE?
@@adventuredex I would, it's affordable, looks good, sounds good and adds a bit of pep to the jeep
Yah that’s what I am hoping for
How hard was it to get to the bolts underneath the fender / wheel well?

True ! They should have stuck with the straight 6 ! Bulletproof !! Torquey, and easy to work on !
I currently have the stock one that comes with the JK. Im glad you made a video like this because just this past week I started looking at some. Thanks my dude! Keep up the great videos!
Thanks!! I am glad you enjoyed!
What’s the maintenance of that filter? Do you clean it or just replace it, like you do with a stock filter? Thanks for the video!
It’s a dry filter so can be cleaned very easily! Thanks for watching JeepWave 👋🏼
do you have a sound deadening hardtop liner? If so, could you do a video on it? I'm trying to figure out if getting a boom mat sound deadener headliner is worth it
Thanks for the suggestion
What unit can I use on my jk in California?
Hi Dex.. fits this system also for the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 2.8 CRD 2013?
Does it save a gas?
What front bumper is that? Thanks bro!
Dex, I have the injen cold air intake you installed a couple years ago. I love that. What’s the difference between the two?
I have injen too but noticed no difference 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
@@adventuredexwhich one better?
I use a K&N for street use and when I go off road I Swap out to a paper Wix filter to trap the fine dirt that the K&N can't
Makes sense! Thanks for sharing
Just got my first Wrangler 3 weeks ago ( 2012 JKU) and been watching a lot of videos to see where to start with to mods. Do the cold air intakes help a lot?
I think it’s a good mod to start with! Helps slightly
Are there any problems with a CAI? I have a 2015 JK 2 door. Is it safe?
Whose Jeep is this? I havent seen you show a red Jeep before.
A friends jeep 😃
Have a Mopar Cold Air Intake on my ‘12 JKU Rubicon. I love it
Great vid Dex
🙌🏼🙌🏼
and if you off road in wet conditions its a lot easier to mess up your engine . Seen a few i run with make the mistake and follow someone with stock intake and make the mistake and water gets sucked into the engin
Do you live in the Bahamas adventuredex?
What’s up AdventureDex loved the vid. I got so excited when I saw a new upload. Next vid you should do a spare tire brake light install, they look super clean!

Thanks Spencer! I am glad you enjoy the videoed and find them helpful!
When did you get a new Jeep?
Haha it’s a friends jeep!
Would a mod like this void the factory warranty?
Did I miss something? Where is the white Jeep? When did you get a red Jeep?
Nah haha this is a friends jeep!
Does that filter not need oil?
No, it’s a dry filter
You didn't place the gasket around hole where the pipe goes into the box. Also it looked like you didn't place sensor in right direction.
Whoahhhh ! How did you get that clone of yourself !! Trip !!
Always love your videos - I've modded out my interior you have me looking into my first engine mod!
I run ingen cold air. Rock the slides
Nice job
Thanks!
Just ordered a rough country air intake can’t wait since I recently tuned my jeep with the factory muffler delete 💪🏽😍
Did you like the rough country cold air intake?
@@samerhallak yes it’s amazing 👌🏼
Questions: what year is your Jeep and what is the factory muffler delete?
@@SlimeLimeJeep its a 2017 sahara muffler delete is you just remove the muffler from your jeep exhaust it will sound so much better
Great upgrade
Ouch ! That kinda sounded like you crunched it !
Running a K and N filter on my 2011 jk rubicon!
How you liking it!?
Oops, forgot the clamp before attaching to throttle body the first time and had to refilm that, I see 😀
🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm currently running the Mopar cold air intake and I think it's not that great and heat shield for it poor design and it's tube it metal and creates more heat.
Great video bro 👍🏾
Why does that look like a scene from Jurassic Park? ;-)
You should do an oil catch can Video!!!
Good idea!!
New jeep?
Not yet 😉😉
The sensor didn’t look to secure.
Running a K&N
How the K&N??
@@adventuredex it is very throaty...great sound. You know we didn’t buy these for the MPGs 😂
Keep up the great vids sir! You get some great product & you do a fantastic job on the installs and narrating.
Thanks rob! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I like the video, good job.
Thank you, I order my today.
Good looks!
Wish you should how you secured the heat shield box
1 eight millimeter bolt on the radiator 👍🏼👍🏼

So true, just change to a better filter, and you are done.
New Jeep? I always saw a white one...
This is a friends jeep
AdventureDex always nice to help a fellow Jeepster 😉

Mopar cold air intake !!!
Noticing a difference?
Sound mostly! Maybe a mpg or so !! Lol
Haha 😆
Hello,I am the manufancture of LED headlights and like your video. Would you be willing to test them? Please reply to me if interest.
Volant Cold Air intake.
Is sahara considered a jl or jk?
For a video partially about sound, you sure used a crappy microphone for recording.
Hey friend
Would you like to make a review video of JOYTUTUS Car Cover?
l have emailed u the details. Please feel free to contact me.
Now drive in some mud or cross a river see how well it works. Like its intended
Where is the white Jeep lol
Haha still around

I don't know how much, if any, it helps horsepower, and probably you don't either, but if you think it improves mileage then I have a bridge over the East River in New York you might want to invest in.

If a plastic tube could improve fuel economy to any measurable extent, it would come standard.
