Can anyone please inform me why it is taking so long to come out with a good branded cold air intake the new grand cherokee has been out for some time now and i still cant get my hands on a cold air intake for the v8 i've see some intake but not 300 bucks worth i want a k&n or something. Does any one have any answers for me please

The airraid intake uses the factory scoop that will draw in fresh air as well and the only way to hydro lock an engine is to completely submerge the filter under water. Think about it have you ever tried to use a straw with holes in it? You lose all suction just like a filter with holes in it.

This is a snorkel:

Actually Jeepster23 there were a few posts here a while ago about WK2 getting hydro locked -- I dont have any hard evidence other than the post. However after that post they started puting in snow blockers and hood trimming very soon after the event.-- so I dont want to take a chance ... I had a snorkel as well on my Landrover years ago ... loved it...
