K&N Tech was reasonably sure that while the engine, driver's side intake setup, and air sensor would work properly with this unit, the intake tube and heat shield would not fit correctly. The JGC engine bay is narrower and smaller than the Dodge Challenger.
DIY might work fine by shortening the intake tube and clipping the heat shield to fit, but it would be optimal to wait. Unfortunately, K&N admitted they haven't even gotten a proto mule yet for the WK2 so it may be awhile.
^Good advice BP. Looking at the WK2 engine bay definitely convinced me to wait. The throttle body looks like it is a bit further forward in the vehicle, and at the same time the logical filter location is a bit further back, so a slight "S" curved intake tube may be in order.
Yea, I'm definitely guzzlin' the Jeep coolaid, it's a heckofa buzz. Heh.
