Questions
First, I will absolutely admit I'm a "Noob" to doing my own forced induction stuff.
My questions are: 1. Does anyone here have any experience with Jeeps? 2. Does anyone here have experience with remote mounted turbos? (like STS) I grew up on a farm with turbo tractors but diesel is far different that gas. I spent a couple of years in Japan in the late 90's and I owned a 1986 or 1988 Sylvia with turbo and enjoyed the boost it had. I'm going to start doing my homework now and hope to have one of very few if not only boosted Jeep JK's. Everyone else is running SC's on them so it has to be doable engine management wise... Mike |
Do it!

Well, I figured if I'm going to do it I'll do it right. I ordered a couple of books on forced induction and ECU programming. We'll see how it goes.

there was a jeep a long time ago that some nagger boosted, inline 6 i think. Rear mount sucks bawllz you'll need an oil pump and lots of intercooler tubing

I was thinking closed loop as well, but it would more than likely require two pumps. The best deal would be to use an aerocharger which is self lubricating but neither one of us is spending $2k on the charger. My system is lubricating well using a sandwich adapter through stainless lines and then pumped back up with a shurflo pump. Everything is done except for the charge pipe.

its not that i dont believe you, my brother was stationed okinawa for a few years and had a 300zxTT
the funny part is its similar to a certain car movie i know. xD seems like your life is the story of the dream to boost. |
Yeah, I've always had a fascination with forced induction from my first ride in a brand new Grand National. If it weren't for the stupid CANBUS on my jeep I'd have it done now but I heard someone just came out with a new tuner program that I have to look into.
