A performance intake kit is a relatively inexpensive and easy upgrade that will give you a noticeable horsepower improvement immediately. It is not uncommon to gain 5-10 HP with one of these things. The concept is simple: your vehicle will inhale more air and that will increase power and acceleration.Probably no other company knows more about performance intake kits that K&N, makers of the world's best air filters. They offer their performance intake kit number 77-1548KP for Jeep Commanders with the 4.7 V8 engine (a kit is not yet available for the 3.7 V6 or the 5.7 Hemi V8). This performance intake kit claims a 7.96 Horsepower gain over the stock air filter setup. Each kit comes with detailed instructions to facilitate installation.
K&N also offers another intake kit, the 63-1548, which claims an even larger Horsepower gain (9.47 HP), however it is not street legal in all 50 states.
For owners of Commanders with the 5.7L Hemi V8, there is the K&N replacement air filter.
While not as effective as an intake kit, these filters last a lifetime and allow more air than the stock OEM air filters.Tags: Jeep, Jeep Commander, Jeep XK, DaimlerChrysler, Off-Road

Trucks and some Suv's have poor fuel economy. This can be enhanced by upgrading its exhaust and intake systems.
You may get a few HP but unless you hook it up with exhaust improvements and chip for ecu you will not really notice the difference for your investment. Be sure to keep all sensors in correct places or you will lose power and mileage.
An air intake isn't required for you. It is must-have for your car and/or truck.
With Jeep lifts kits the performance is more better and you don't have to worry about off-road driving and Jeep conditions. A lot of choices are offered its all about what you need.
