Nov '09 issue........it was a good read but I would still throw a 4.0 in it..........still low on hp and a turbo puts power down at the wrong rpm's........spooling the turbo up will break the tires loose and loose traction or well if you have the traction I can see the quick increase in power will break parts fast. Now if your doin desert runs that's a different story I like the rocks......I can see it workin in the desert better

yea i saw that in the magizine it was on the blue yj. yea im more into the jumpin sanddunes type of wheeling. i plan on doing a v8 eventually but im putting a new 4 cyl. in it this week or next and was just wondering how much power you could really see from that and how it would compare to a v8. it didnt look like the power was worth the amount of money they spent in the jp issue
