Home made log manifold, don't remember what kind of turbo it was, large frontmount intercooler, FMU and a piggyback ECU with supplemental injectors. It ran a best of 14.9 seconds last summer.

Not bad for a big ole pig of a Jeep :P

For what he is doing with the jeep I will agree that a supercharger would be best! You could use a thunderbird supercoupe charger easy enough. Not very often a supercharger is a better choice but for this it is ;)

Use newbieforces 8)

I'd say get the V8 Jeep and turbo it :P



work fine over here, why would i use newbie forces when i have my own paid host. We own centerlinemotorsports.com, its my brother in laws side business.

As for the turbo and rock crawling, I'd probably agree it'd be no good. Power in a rock crawler really needs to be down low. Walker Evans, the old baja superstar, competes in the UROC events that my bro-in-law is competing in right now, and his buggy has a ecotec 4 cylinder turbo in it and the way the power comes in is shitty. He rolls all the time. He's not very good at rock crawling anyways, and he's an egotistical old -------. Doesn't step down from his high horse to talk to anyone. His wife is a nice lady tho.

I have his shocks on my sled ;)

I think for the stuff my bro in law does, the stock motor will suit him fine, but for mine, with the highway towing, i think a turbo would rock it.

------- awesome. I love those Jeeps. There is one down the street from me with a sick ass suspension setup. It just sits on the side of the guys house with a trailer hooked up to it. ???

I've seen some in Glamis all done up with paddles on all 4 rims. No hill can stop them.
