Wasn't the 2008 still using the 2.3L and the 2012 uses the 2.5L ? I could see where they might have changed the exhaust manifold/header when they changed the engine displacement. The advantages/disadvantages of going to a true "header" on the 2.3L engine was debated quite a bit on this very forum a few years back and IIRC the consensus was "don't bother" I think in the end you are better off going with a tune like Dynotronics and leaving most of the hard points alone. An intake and a good muffler is worth it just for the sound though...
if you didnt do it already, remove the intake resonator chamber that runs under the airbox over in front of the drivers side wheel. its held in by 3 bolts and you'll have to drop the fender liner on that corner to get it out. I dont think the van really feels any quicker with it removed (the chamber acutally does not seem very choked up), but that chamber cancels out a lot of noise. Sounds a lot better without it.
Im going to cut the bottom of my airbox to open it up some more and go with a k&n drop in and it should sound even better.
Probably 90% of the performance of a short ram intake kit for a fraction of the cost.
