Overview:

The Ripp Carbon Fiber Sealed Cold Air Intake Kit is engineered specifically for the Jeep Wrangler JK equipped with the 3.6L engine from 2007 to 2018. Designed to enhance your vehicle’s performance while providing superior protection against harsh off-road elements, this intake system is ideal for Jeep enthusiasts who demand both durability and power. Featuring a sealed carbon fiber airbox, it shields the air filter from mud, water, sand, and debris—common challenges faced during heavy-duty off-road adventures.

Ripp is recognized as a leader in Jeep Wrangler performance products, and this intake kit stands out as the only cold air intake compatible with snorkel setups. Whether you’re tackling rugged trails or daily driving, this system offers a versatile configuration to suit your build and driving style without sacrificing airflow or horsepower.

Key Features:

The Ripp Cold Air Intake Kit combines innovative design with practical features to deliver reliable performance gains and protection:

• Sealed carbon fiber airbox protects the air filter from mud, water, and sand, preventing debris ingestion during off-road use.
• Compatible with snorkel setups, maintaining clean airflow even in deep water or dusty environments.
• Unique inverted air filter design exposes more surface area to incoming air, improving filtration efficiency and airflow.
• Provides an additional 6 rear-wheel horsepower by optimizing air intake and reducing restrictions.
• Frees up valuable under-hood space for easier engine access and cleaner engine bay appearance.
• Closed airbox design enhances throttle response and smooths performance at lower RPMs.
• Multiple configuration options allow customization to fit your specific build and driving needs.
• Durable construction designed to withstand the rigors of off-road environments.

Construction & Design:

The intake system features a lightweight yet robust carbon fiber airbox that seals the air filter completely, preventing contamination from environmental hazards. Carbon fiber is chosen not only for its strength and durability but also for its heat-resistant properties, which help maintain cooler intake air temperatures. The inverted filter design operates “backward,” maximizing the filter’s exposed surface area to draw in more air efficiently. This thoughtful engineering ensures the intake charge is contained and directed precisely, enhancing engine breathing and overall performance.

Performance & Sound

By replacing the restrictive factory airbox with this sealed carbon fiber system, the Ripp Cold Air Intake improves airflow significantly, resulting in a noticeable gain of approximately 6 rear-wheel horsepower. The enhanced throttle response and smoother power delivery at lower RPMs contribute to a more engaging driving experience. Additionally, the system’s design helps maintain a clean intake sound that complements the Jeep’s rugged character without excessive noise.

The Ripp Cold Air Intake Kit is designed for a direct bolt-on installation on 2007–2018 Jeep Wrangler JK models equipped with the 3.6L engine. No major modifications are required, and the kit includes all necessary hardware for a straightforward installation process. Its compatibility with snorkel setups makes it an excellent choice for off-road enthusiasts who want to maintain factory or aftermarket snorkel systems without sacrificing intake performance.
