If your talking about a Grand Cherokee here.
Best Answer

TSi means Turbo Sport Intercooled.

The Grand Cherokee TSi never came with a turbo. It came with a 5.9L Magnum V8 and all wheel drive. Jeep/Eagle was hoping that the TSi that was attached to the Eagle would rub off on the Jeep, increasing sales. The only other differences with them and the other Grand Cherokees was the hood vents and a 2 in lower ride height.

TSi (1997-1998)
A sporty TSi model (1997-1998) briefly debuted, exterior features included single color body paneling, with lower indigo blue striping accent similar to that found on the Eagle Talon model. TSi packages came equipped with 5 spoke 16-inch alloy wheels, 225/70R16 tires, sport tuned suspension and steering, perforated leather seats, and a premium sound system. A 5.2 litre V8 was available. The TSi was priced between the Laredo and the Limited.
