They usually will hit the 220-230 mark before the auction is over.
I read the report on the dyno from Hot Rod and another one in Sport Truck
and both times it range around 18HP at the rear. This means the Jeep has a
nasty breather.

Ya know...he may be right with the "Up to 32HP increases". When I had
spoken
with K&N about their Gen-II last year, the tech person stated that they
recorded a 25HP increase on a Jeep GC (5.9L) on their dyno with just the
Gen-
II. That puts is right about on par with the 32HP (Crank) that they're
claiming. (32HP - 25% = 24RWHP)
I wouldn't bug this guy too much...$177 ain't bad either. ;)
