Cherokee budget turbo build thread

[CSaddict]

Would you want to sell me a turbo kit too assuming yours turns out well?? I am not to far from you.

Good luck!!

Um, maybe. I can jig up my piping I guess. My father lives in Schenectady. Let me see how this all works out. lol

Im in a holding pattern. My wideband is a DOA and they are sending me out another one. I fired the Jeep up today open header with the big injectors and it ran well. Going to do the oil lines tonight and tomorrow and then the final install.

What brand did you get? I've been loving Innovate's LM-2 the past month.

 

[CSaddict]

It was a PLX SM-AFR/DM5 combo. I used to only use Innovate as well. The last turbo car I owned I figured on trying the PLX. I like the display and packaging. It worked great.

ITS ALIVE!!! I took it around the block. Runs well for no tuning done. My new wideband was already shipped out to replace the defect. It overboosted the first time I briefly pulled it. I adjusted the wastegate and its good now. Not boosting it again till I can get the wideband in and I dont have to time today to borrow the one I was going to use. Here it is.

I tried looking at southbayfuelinjectors.com and didnt see anything for 36# injectors. They only had up to 27#. Do you have a link or any info for the ones you got?

That's awesome man...you got pm'd

 

[Talyn]

You are braver than I am to drive it without a wide band nor egt gauge. But is sound slike you have it running well even without a decent tune.

 

[CSaddict]

It has a wideband in it. Do you see it listed in the price list?

 

[Talyn]

Not boosting it again till I can get the wideband in and I dont have to time today to borrow the one I was going to use.

That says you don't have a wideband installed.

 

[CSaddict]

Ah. I haven't updated.

 

[JKMotorsports]

CS, long time since I've seen you around HMT. Good to see you still have the XJ.

Had plan to turbo mine, but going with an IHI Supercharger off the wife's old Mazda Millenia.

 

[CSaddict]

make a build thread. I'd be very interested in seeing how that all comes together.

we gunna c this jeep do some 0 to 60 and mud bog and street burnouts right? That is some good work. I hope u know what ur doing with the tuning because it is not a low compression motor so depending on how much cfms that turbo puts out and ur fuel flow. I hope the best though.
