Snorkel or K&N ?

I'm curious what you guys think is the better way to go, an ARB snorkel or a
hi air flow kit like the K&N, Rusty's air tube or the air raid?

I don't really see myself getting into water that will threaten the intake
where it is, but it might be nice to get it up higher just in case. On the
other hand, right now the hood protects it from all the rain we get here in
Oregon.

Snorkels are fine if you're going to need them, but otherwise they look
kinda silly. Go K&N.

I wouldn't go with any of them. It's well known that those products
don't really do a thing for engine performance. This subject is
discussed way too often. Why don't they help? Because unlike many
other vehicles sold today, assuming you have a '97 or newer Jeep, the
Jeep's air intake system is already non-restrictive... really.
