I'm thinking of getting the JMB FWI and was wondering if anyone has installed one on a GP and whether the installation presented any problems. I"m curious if the filter gets wet during the rain too..Thanks..

How much is it?

Most just build their own.

NO dont get the JMB FWI, it doesn'y sit right in the fenederwell, and you will have to cut up the fender. If you want a FWI get the speedbuilt one or ask ZZP for there input.

The Wizaired one is nice and often regarded as the best performing of the CAI's.

It sells for around $195. Maybe I'll just build my own. I'm reluctant to remove the fender brace though.

The fender brace is only two bolts. Plus it goes back in once the install is done.

I just bent a little fender out of the way and had a 3" rubber elbow connecting two 3" pieces of PVC pipe.
