intake, throttle body, and injectors
i was thinking about adding these to my xj but are they worth it? for the intake, i was thinking snorkel because it brings in cool air, functional for offroad and look cool. using the stock air box, what would be a good high flow drop in filter? as for throttle body, strokedjeep.com ive heard does a good job for a bored 63mm with matching spacer. now im not sure about the injectors... heard they are 24lb blue top ford but where do i find them and how much?
lastly, is there any tuning needing to be done? coming from working on my cobalt, i had to tune for the oversize tb and 60lb injectors otherwise the car ran like ****.... any MAF recalibration?
thanks in advance

Jeep does not have a mass air flow sensor but i am not sure of programming... As far as a filter, I run a K&N and have been very satisfied with the results

just use the stock airbox, stock paper filter, and run a bored TB. no need for bigger injectors. if you dont play in mud and water too often, drill out a hole or two on the fender side of the airbox.

I have the bored TB from strokedjeep.com. I love it, much smoother acceleration, quicker, and hasnt truely dropped my gas millage. It was cheap and easy to install.
Stick with the stock airbox, if you plan on doing things that require a snorkel, then you will have to do so much to waterproof your engine compartment and such.
Its 19lb injectors for a 4.0L. I wouldnt touch the 24lb unless you have a stroker.
Read up here for injectors, gotta alot of good info
