Great video. The kit looks to be of good quality. You might just have to measure the compression in the cylinders and maybe try to find a thicker spacer to bring the compression down a bit. Im impatient to get my kit but funds are tight at the moment. Keep us posted

@@ismaelquintero3403 Yeah, there is so little information. After doing all the research for this video I decided to go for it. I bought the full rebuild kit from Kalama. I was still worried about the 12:1 compression so I bought some 11:1 Wiseco pistons. Even with 11:1 I worry a little about detonation so I got a 180 degree thermostat to let it run cooler. I'm still waiting on everything to arrive but I'll make sure to post some video's as soon as I can. I've also got a power commander 5 that came with the RZR but was never installed so I'll be installing that and adding a Pressure Guard oil pressure regulator and a oil pressure gauge so there will be some great stuff coming up. Time to get it all done will my biggest hurdle 😉

@@ismaelquintero3403 The kit was just the beginning. I found a kit from Vito's performance with a cam for $1,299.00. Great price! But then the extra pistons were $343 directly from Wiseco. Knock off Pressure Guard from Amazon $30. Thermostat is an actual Polaris brand part from Amazon for $40. New oil pump and water pump impeller black friday sale from Rez 6 $200. I don't have links right now but I'll include them in my next video. If you decide to use the 12:1 pistons you should definitely get the pressure guard, 180 thermostat and the upgraded impeller. And get your radiator fans to kick on a little earlier. Those things will work together to protect your engine. You might not even need octane booster with those upgrades if your riding in elevation above 4,000 feet. I'm still not sure I really needed to change the pistons. I just felt a lot more comfortable bring my compression down a point.

I finally got all my parts together. Holding the Wiseco 11:1 and the Kalama pistons side by side I have no idea how Kalama gets 12:1 compression. They are nearly identical other than Kalama is about .5 mm taller but Kalama has a deeper dish in the piston. If anything I would think the Kalama would be lower compression than the Wiseco. . . ? Hopefully I'll get to edit and post the video tomorrow.

I've really liked mine but it's definitely not perfect. Common problems are broken exhaust manifold bolts, water pump, ticking lifters, and the TIPM (fusebox.) I've personally had all of those problems except the lifters. For me they are easy fixes so not too big of a deal. With an Overland you have air suspension as well. I'm not sure if that has any problems or not since I don't have it on mine. As long as you're at least a moderate mechanic and have some decent tools, especially a good code scanner, I would say go for it. It's one of the easiest engine bays you'll ever work in. But if you have to take it to a mechanic for everything it might not be a good idea. I know a lot of the electrical gremlins were solved with the 2014 and newer models. Plus you get an 8 speed transmission with 2014 up. But no matter what year you get make sure you change your oil religiously.

@@snoozinatthetop I still have the Jeep in this video. It has 101,627 miles on it and I haven't had anything major go wrong. Just the little things I mentioned but they were cheap to fix because I did it myself. I still love it after all these years. I don't plan on getting rid of it anytime soon but if I did it would be with a newer one with an 8 speed. That transmission is awesome. My girlfriend has a 2014 Durango which is mechanically the same except without a TIPM and it has an 8 speed. She has 132,00 miles on hers also with nothing major. It needed a water pump at 60K and that's about it. The radiator and the transmission cooler leak a little but that's because the lady who had it before her liked to run into things. Neither the Jeep or Durango have ever left us stranded. But with used cars you never know. Just take a lot of time looking at the Jeep.

@guntherferguson2369 4 жыл бұрын
No you won't. The inlet is up high and so is the air filter. Water would have to fill that entire box to get to the filter. The box has drain holes so that is very unlikely. You would have to be completely submerged to suck water into your intake. That little rubber piece isn't a seal. It's just a blocker.
@mkedan6741 4 жыл бұрын
The engine cover on these is there for looks and judging by all the foam underneath, it's there to stop noise. It also seems to trap a lot of dust under it on the engine. Do not wash engine, use light air pressure and nozzle to blow off. You don't have to cut the snorkel top, you can carefully heat the area and stretch the plastic up adding 1/4" vertical opening.
@mkedan6741 4 жыл бұрын
I think you're on the right track. The rubber flap on my GC was glued crooked between right and center clip restricting even more air and I got rid of that 4" piece of foam rubber in front of the snorkel(no water gets anywhere near there even in a downpour). and you can now hear the engine more. I've been thinking about a CAI for my Hemi GC but the more I study up on it the more I realize Mopar engineers have optimized the airflow for the engines no matter how goofy they look. You are not going to get any real power improvements on a stock engine. K&N stuff for this engine/chassic is not well engineered and any power comes from the high flow filters, problem is, these filters don't filter nearly as well as a Wix or OEM filter so you are shortening the life of your engine. I have also seen dyno sheets from aFe for their $476 Momentum GT, They show improvements in the midrange(2800 to 4000 rpm) but nothing much on the top end and a small spike of maybe 5 hp at redline. I am heading to the bone yard to get a lower air box and snorkel, maybe 2. I will be cutting off the silencers and using heat, epoxy and the extra plastic to optimize the snorkel and airbox.

@guntherferguson2369 4 жыл бұрын
I think they meant for it to be a seal but water can't really get in there. And any small amount of water that does will just go out the drains at the bottom. it's really just an unnecessary restriction. In fact the Durango with the same engine and air box doesn't even have that piece. Making it even more obvious to me that's it's just a waste of rubber and glue and should be removed so that you can get mor e air.
@guntherferguson2369 4 жыл бұрын
That's all it does is restrict air. I think they meant for it to keep water out but there is no way enough water is getting in there to cause problems unless you're submerged in water. If you are submerged that seal isn't going to save you lol.

If you remove the rubber gasket under the hood (as he did in the beginning) to let more air into the snorkel, won't water during rain storms and from other cars in the rain cause water to get into the snorkel as well? That's not good just to make the engine sound meatier.
