Nice ZJ! How do you like the Turbo City setup? I've read about the pro's and con's. Evryone seems to be evenly divided on the subject.

Thanks! I like it. After installing it, and letting the ECU get used to it, there was a noticeable performance gain. I've heard experts estimating a 5-10 hp gain from this (air tube + filter).

At WOT you can sometimes hear a high-pitched whistling sound as air is sucked through the filter, so it flows a lot better than the stock air box.
