Suppose to make the engine more powerful what do you think has anybody tried it?

Shade133

it does. i wouldnt go with that brand though. id use hypertec.

Backwoods Country Girl

Do they actually work?

Shade133

yep. if your jeep is in perfect running condition and you pop that chip in you'll notice a hell of a difference. and probably loss of gas mileage. or you could gain gas mileage. ive seen it go both ways.

Backwoods Country Girl

I can't speak from personal experience, but......... From everything I've read here and on other sights, chipping our 4.0's is pretty much a waste of dough. They were delivered from the factory getting pretty much all their going to get as far as tuning. Any gains realized would'nt be worth $300. Your money would be better spent on increasing air intake and a better flowing exhaust.

Backwoods Country Girl

Thats what I was figuring I dont see how it would do that much difference

Desert Rat

Probably more harm than good.

So is there any way to get the engine to be more powerful cause it just seems so blahhhhh

Desert Rat

Start with a good tune-up plugs, wires, cap, and rotor. make sure your air filters not plugged up. Couple questions, how many miles on the engine and is it "blah" all the time or just when you get on the gas?

Backwoods Country Girl

That engine was replaced not sure exactly when but when I bought the jeep they said the engine had about 75,000 miles on it the actual Jeep has alot more. And it just wont go uphill for **** an not that much pep on flat either.

Desert Rat

With the symptoms you describe, the first thing I'd check is your Cat and make sure it's not plugged. A reputable exhaust shop will do this for free.

Get a bored throttle body, thats what i did. Mate that with a freer flowing muffler and she'll giddy up pretty good

I noticed the chip was for a manual trans, is yours a stick?
