They all are. Even the Eibach lowering kit will fit the KK.

Make sure any intake kit you find is true cold air and drawing it from a cooler than underhood source or you are just wasting your money. Most are just a tube w/ a cone filter on the end and in the stock air box location which means, even if shielded, they are drawing air from underhood and not a cooler location.

When looking at the air intake on my KK, it appears that it already has a stock cold air intake attached. Am I mistaken in this? Also, they have placed metal panels along each side of the radiator blocking the way thru to the grill. How would you get around that to make a mod for any cold air intake?

I ended up installing the AEM Brute Force on mine . Gained 1.4 mpg with it, seems to rock n roll a little better when passing cars on the way to and from the cabin. I'm happy with the results so far.

anybody heard of headers going in. I plan to do a full headers back exhaust, and intake. I feel like an increase in hp is in order, what does everyone think?

I'm sure it would help, but I'd plan on a chip or computer reflash to really take advantage of those changes.

Anybody make a chip for a KK with a 6-speed?

JET makes a chip for the 3.7l which works... as far as headers, JBA is currently making them for the nitros
