Cold Air Intake for Jeep Cherokee & Grand Cherokee (1997-2004) 4.0L Engine

Maximize Throttle Response and Low-End Torque for Your 4.0L PowerTech I6 Jeep

Who It’s For: Designed specifically for 1997–2004 Jeep Cherokee (XJ) and Grand Cherokee (WJ) owners running the legendary PowerTech I6 engine.

The Problem: The factory air box on the PowerTech I6 is a notorious bottleneck. Designed for silence rather than efficiency, the stock plastic housing heat-soaks quickly and uses a restrictive paper filter that chokes the engine during acceleration or off-road climbs.

The Solution: This high-flow intake system replaces the restrictive factory plumbing with a mandrel-bent tube and a reusable filter. We engineered this kit to improve the breathing of the AMC-derived 4.0L, allowing it to pull in cooler, denser air for better combustion and significantly sharper throttle response.

Why This is the Ultimate Upgrade

• Enhanced Airflow: Removes the baffled factory box to provide a direct path for air, which is critical for the long-stroke PowerTech I6 design.
• Rugged Durability: Finished in a stealthy black powder coat to resist engine bay heat and corrosion, ensuring it stands up to trail abuse.
• Serviceable Filter: Includes a high-performance cotton-media filter that can be washed and re-oiled, eliminating the need to buy disposable paper filters ever again.
