Great looking build. I too am a Jeep and honda guy! I actually sold me honda last year, and just picked up my first XJ a couple months ago. I had a boosted Del Sol

I simply sold mine because I got tired of being associated with type of people that own them in las vegas. I wont get into specifics as itll come off racist. Do miss being boosted though

finally finished this monster i was so disappointed when i saw the whole issue with the duel tb's it looks like your gonna try and make you own manifold, if you figure out how to make it work i would definitely be interested in some tips and tricks on how to make one, thinking though you should look into doing a six pack type intake with three throttle bodies you have the just the middle one for light load (i.e. stop and go traffic) applications but the other two open up on high load (i.e. off-roading, eating ricers) applications. just q thought, they did in on the old challengers to very good effect, I'm not sure well how it would transfer over to a FI situation though but that's my thoughts on it but all in all this is prolly one of the best builds i've seen good job

well this is my thread so you can be stereotypical if you want...I have been out in the desert and if your thinking what im thinking then its nothing more than a bunch of taco eating river swimmers.
(mods: thats only racist if youre racist, I love tacos and swimming)

around here its nothing but a bunch of ricer fanboys who continue to try and pretend that hondas are fast even though they are not....EVER.
even if you take hondas to the extreme, then they run the same as mild built v8 car. if you take them beyond extreme with billion dollar budget where there is barely anything honda left, they still compete with full body cars.

end honda rant.

I was thinking of making a dual TB manifold out of a 99+ manifold. but after thinking about it, with the way n20 works i think im just gonna run a ported tb with n2o jets.
