Smarty's are pretty tame.

Instead i'm gonna slap an Edge juice w/ attitude or something on my completely stock 24V. Then i'll be asking for trouble.

DO IT COLIN!!! That'll be funny (funny ha-ha)!!!

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Haha awesome.

I don't know that you can do it with a standard OBD2 reader?

I think you can do it with a Smarty. Maybe it's time to give my CTD a tuner :firedevil:

:dunno: it was just a thought that could potentially save you the $45 for a flash.

WTF are they doing?

My 24V has been pretty damn reliable. Granted, I haven't thrown a tuner/injectors/turbo or anything at it.

Wouldn't be a problem on mine since I have the fuel system to cover it, the only thing I could see failing would be the clutch hating life.

But anything could happen, and it's only a downward spiral from there.

two of them are insane 11 second runners with suncoasts, bigger turbos, everything... one of them put his as much to stock as possible so it would stop being a driveway ornament. another one is down for a lift pump and injection pump and all that at the moment.... all of them are chipped cept the 3rd gen. otherwise i have no idea haha. i love my buddy's dirtymax quad cab though....

once you start modding the cummins the reliability seems to go to shit.

It's a constant battle for me to not turn my DD into another project. DD's can be enjoyed daily but no matter how awesome any part I buy for my XJ is I know I'm not going to get to drive it for a while. I've behaved myself for the most part but I may have just made a few non-jeep parts purchases :shhh:

this is why I own 4 jeeps, jeeps are expected to be projects.

Just need a radiator, AX15, and decent tires before I take the MJ down for a rebuild...

Damn that's awesome.

I'd say if you don't know what you're doing the reliability can go to shit. I'm not saying you're friends don't know what they're doing, but there are plenty of people out there making power and driving them everyday. Hell, I haven't done anything because I wouldn't know what the hell I was doing. I just upgrade the parts that are rumored to commonly fail (lift pump, track bar, sway bar links).

My buddy has an Edge on his with an AirDog 150 and has been on level 5 for the past 15k miles with just a $80 shift kit in the trans and a $300 4" summit-special exhaust. Hasn't had a hiccup yet, though I'd bet the trans is a ticking time bomb.

Thankfully it's not go-fast items. Those will get me in trouble. I'm happy with how fast the car is right now, especially for a DD. The next exterior thing I get would be sticky tires for next summer.

Anthony is about to get shelled. I"m calling it right now.

I knew it was coming. I have been researching it for a week practically nonstop. I almost didn't even tell you guys just for this reason.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

I only want enough power to tow my MJ on my father's trailer down to PA and not have to let off 5th gear with the cruise on at 70 mph.

I think just getting a Smarty and some 50hp injectors would be perfect. I'd probably do a whole 4" exhaust at that point though to keep the EGTs down.

the trans is knocking on death's door. and yea, idk what it is but they just get unreliable.. maybe they all got shitty ones haha. but lemme tell you.. hot DAMN is it a rush to feel a 3+ ton truck do a 40-100 run faster than a corvette.

I finally got new mirror glass for mine.

what about steprails? lolol

anybody have and bright ideas for turning xj seats into office chairs or just something comfy to sit in at the shop? im drawing blanks on the design

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Sweet, I'll look into them.

I had sitting on a shelf:

2X Alpine Type R 6.5" components
2X Alpine Type R 6.5" coaxials (don't plan on using these)
1x JL 250/1 D class monoblock
1x Alpine MRV-F345 (75W RMS x4)
1x 1.25 cuft sealed box with 12" hole
1x blown JL 12w3v2-4 (won't use this either)
1x Alpine CDA-9881
Tons of wiring and 2 inline fuses

I ordered
2x Dayton RS225-4
2x Dayton RS100-4
2x Vifa XT25SC90-04
1x JL 12w3v3-4
1x Alpine MRP-F300 (50W RMS x4)
50 sq ft B Quiet Ultimate
13.5 sq ft B Quiet Vcomp
1x Memhpis 16-X03

100 ft 14ga speaker wire
25 ft 1/0 power wire

I need 2 more relatively short RCA cables, a 150A fuse, a 1/0 terminal, and some MDF.

It's going to sound like a concert hall in mah car (9 channels, 11 speakers). I know Bill is going to make fun of me and probably call me all sorts of names, including something referencing Hispanics and their slammed S10s. They run systems designed for max SPL. This system is designed with sound quality in mind, though it won't be all that quiet either. I'll be pushing 750W RMS total.
