It was a hot one out there today but that has been the theme this week. I will be honest, did not really know about the SRT8 Grand Cherokee. Pretty sweet looking and some nice power but that is one expensive Jeep.

 

A lot of people still don't know about the Grand Cherokee SRT8....lol. They have been out since 06'. And there are a lot out there highly modified with 1000hp or more!

 

Their just nasty when you put TT on them

 

Hmm I guess I just haven't payed that close attention to the Jeep brand over the years.

 

There's a few TT 426 builds out there, and definitely nasty. I'm happy with my forged 6.1 and single 76mm turbo in my 06'....makes 966hp on race gas tune at 18# of boost...

 

Just curious, i know alot of people like to supercharge them, why did u turbo, i know the differences between what they do power output wise, but just wondering, do u have a long spool time?

 

Turbo > supercharger

 

Psi to hp ratio. There's no comparison, turbo hands down. Plus less stress on the crank. And the wife said go ahead and do the turbo....lol. The thing comes on like a light switch, no lag...

 

I was under the impression that with a super charger you maintain more power through the hp curve than with a turbo.

Here's from the cherokeesrt8 site for a run down of the fastest times and what's done. I'm number 11 so far

 

Haha Nice nice, the crank stress makes alot of sense actually, turbos are alot if fun, i just bought a turbo'd mazda because i was tired of DD xj at 10mpg haha

 

I agree, turbos are cool. Bet the Mazda is fun to drive on twisty roads

 

So a when do we wanna have a meet and great and play with turbo srt? Theirs a car meet every sunday night right by my place i know some people would be very upset to lose to a jeep haha

 

Lol.....where is the meet? IIRC you are above York? I'm just across the susq river on rt30 outskirts of Columbia.

 

Yes its got amazing racing beat suspension, its insane around turns, also another cool thing about it is its a mazdaspeed protege, only 2750 were ever made in the world so its really rare and gets better mpg then the xj, for now hahaha
