Need more power!
I have a 99 XJ with the 4.0L! I want some more ponies. Whats the best and proven things I could do to get some more umphhhh?
|
Cold air intake and Cat back exhaust that is what JP magazine says they have seen on the dyno to improve HP and torque. I don't have the article handy but i think they said those will give you 10-15 horsepower and about the same in torque.
|
Build or buy a stroker.
|
the main upgrades I would recommend would be a bored out throttle body, upgraded computer system, have your injectors cleaned, Cold air intake. It's hard to get much of anything out of a 4.0 they're just not that capable without a stroker kit.
|
I dont have the time or the money to buy or build a stroker. I know the cold air's are not worth the money and only make sound imo!
|
I want a bored throttle body. Anyone have a 62mm TB? I think a bored TB and a cool custom snorkel which = actual cold air intake. and I already have the exhaust done so that should do it. Oh and I need to tune up.
|
I am doing a tuneup this week, Gonna see if that helps. It still has stock Plugs,Wires,Dist Cap,Button on it with 162k on it. That might not being helping it:w00t: I drove a 96 HO XJ the other night and it seemed to have alot more power then my 99 which it should be the same HP wise. I just wonder!
