Really hope your experience with this company and product will be better than mine. Had the turbo on for about 3 years. Pros: More power for highway driving and cool blowoff valve sound of a turbo. Cons (for me) Randomly stalling out and rough idles. Brought jeep to company multi times and were unable to get it fixed. Needless to say stalling out while rock crawling can be a bit scary. Problem I had with the turbo was the lag, you are either in low and the turbo kicks in quick but too low of a gear to get good tire spin or you are in a higher gear where you can get tire spin but turbo lag takes to long to get that instant power to bump it. Long story short wish I just saved my money for what I have now (LS3).

[@LiteBrite]

[@darcyjousset6615]

Hold it up towards a light source. If you can see light shine through the air filter is fine. Also with a turbo you want that catch can. A little oil is fine but a turbo will put more then just a little. That’s why ford ecoboost with out a catch can tend to need a bunch of work right after 100k KM’s just in time for the warranty to expire.

[@americancitizen4259]

I love turbos. Save fuel when you don't need them but kick it in the ass when you do need them. Next thing you guys might look at is a snorkel. They have a pre-filter on them to keep dirt out of your system. And they help get cooler air to your turbo.

[@boughtnotbuiltoffroad7784]

American Citizen ya we’re searching. Haven’t found anything yet

[@NicT09]

If you’re wanting more heat control. Go to PTPturboblankets.com and get their lava wrap for the exhaust pipe. Wrap the pipe atleast til it’s out of the engine bay. It’ll help the turbo perform better and it combined with the coating will make the pipe so you can almost touch it bare handed. Power driven diesel did a KZbin video proving turbo blankets work if your interested in the actual process. Keep up the great videos!

[@philiphannum4211]

Ok, help me to understand this. Why? The little I know about turbos is that they are good with high engine RPM but useless at low speed. Like when you are going off road wheeling and rock crawling. How is a turbo going to help you at slow speed and low RPM engine speed? I still love the video and the interactions between you all. Keep up the good work.

[@rockyour4x4]

Philip Hannum cries country towing 2500 pounds.

[@stuartstogdill2406]

Philip Hannum it won’t help at all for rock-crawling and such. It’s truly just for on-road performance on that 3.6 liter motor. 2.0L would make more power with a tune and simple bolt-ons and actually be more useful with the battery assist system.

[@boughtnotbuiltoffroad7784]

Philip Hannum I have gearing for Offroad. Where it does help is in the dunes when climbing big hills and flying down back country roads. Also pulling the trailer. Gearing is for crawling, I’ve never needed more power when crawling. I have needed it when towing and passing and hitting sand dunes.

[@ddunnum]

Just an FYI about the air filter... Modern fuel injection engines do not respond to a dirty filter like an old carb motor. The computer recalculates the fuel requirements based on the air available. The power will fall off a small amount. You need to be concerned about dirt and air bypass. As the delta p across the filter goes up the dirt and air find their way around the filter. better to replace it regularly.

[@LiteBrite]

Yeah, it just always got moved down the priority list or forgotten about in the busy schedule or as other things broke or occurred (such as death wobble, loose suspension bolts, etc etc).

[@BalanBro2]

So cool. Love the turbo route. I'm not super familiar with this system, but I always felt that Jeeps should use the smallest turbo to get the job done. A ball bearing twin scroll rated at 450-500 BHP would be perfect. You'd get a solid 350+ at the wheels, and you should get a great spool with mounds of torque down low. A properly sized turbo can give a supercharger a good run for low end torque, and would actually hit full boost way sooner than either a roots or centrifugal charger.

Why turbo? Colorado. That's why. Excellent video.

By adding black paint you increased its heat holding, also Not sure the inside wall of a turbo casing should also but painted black. Think about it in a like metal foil in oven, great for holding in heat take the foil off, it cools very fast. Now paint that foil black, do you have the same results? Probably not, due to extra layers it needs to cool. Yes great for corrosion prevention no doubt, but if your turbo blew up I suspect, the nice powder coating and black color had a play in this.

Oil doesn't combust and lowers fuel octane rating when it enters a gas engine... No, the engine is not designed to burn oil, that is BS.. not saying you said that was true, just the myth of that is false

[@brandonbrown3600]

so explain a rotary which literally burns oil on purpose. Oil does burn it does not carry explosive energy the way gasoline does at combustion temps in a engine but it will burn cleanly if all is working properly. The only issues with oil going through the intake is the valves getting carbon build up because they do not get exposed to combustion obviously on the back sides. On older engines fuel kept the valve clean on newer DI engines nothing does so a catch can does help in that case. But oil does burn through an engine completely. Also it does lower octane but a lower octane actually has more potential energy and less explosive energy at combustion temps and pressures. But on the oil topic there are engines specifically designed to have oil enter the combustion process to lubricate the seals or cylinders and other than the design of the engine as far as pistons or rotors etc combustion is still combustion and happens via the same process. All engines are designed with the knowledge that oil will get through the PCV system and burn and are ok with handling that process. The only advantage of the catch can or removing the oil before it reaches the intake is saving the valves. on that point though I will say a 300 buck quality catch can is worth it on a DI engine as having to have the valves cleaned at 100k miles because they are caked is stupid. But you can also use seafoam or berrymans through the intake every 5k or so miles to help reduce build up as well and even with a catch can is a good idea as they do not stop 100 percent of the oil.

[@1SYCRYD]

@@brandonbrown3600 yeah, ok... 1st this is not a rotary engine, 2nd oil in combustion chamber can cause carbon deposits, pre ignition, knocking, valve cooking, dirty binding throttle body, lower octane of fuel, foul plugs, etc... Please take your Google info and go to a rotary forum... I've built engines for 30 years, I know every nut and bolt on this 3.6.. take the plenum off and look at the intake and valves, coated with oil, sticky as honey, coating the valves causing carbon build up....

irob rf If someone else installs the kit, we can def send them photos and measurement to help! 😊

[@wescourtney1510]

Maybe MC can make an optional set of brackets..?

[@justindillon1150]

I’m stuck between love/hate all of these amazing mods. It’s great to see all of the nice mods and great wheeling, but it kinda separates you guys from the reality of 99% of the viewers.

[@boughtnotbuiltoffroad7784]

justin dillon it’s a fun progression to push this jeep as far as we can. I think a v8 swap on one tons and 42s would be separation but we daily drive this jeep all over the country pulling a trailer with a RZR on it. Sleeping in it and living out of it. If all we did was trailer it around and back home I’d say you were right but I feel like we connect with people just fine. Showing if we can put this much abuse on a jeep, that everyone who has little to moderate mods should have full faith in their jeep because we’re going beyond that by far beating the crap out of ours and still driving it all over the place. Just my point of view on it.

[@sithinstructor]

You may have voided your warranty. Hahahahahaha. Jk.

[@boughtnotbuiltoffroad7784]

Josh V yaaaa just a bit

[@Faithoper777]

Would have been cheaper and still would have a warranty if they went with the 2.0 stock turbo jeep. XD

[@boughtnotbuiltoffroad7784]

XSeVeNX7 lol. The stock turbo doesn’t make this kind of power. I like the v6 with a turbo

[@MrMe1280]

Typically I'd say turbo... but. Turbos make power on the high end and superchargers make power on the low end. Considering that wheeling is done and like 5mph you will never make enough rpm to see a benefit from the turbo while off road so I'm not sure how much performance gain you will get. Idk. Time will tell. Love you guy's. Hopefully one day I'll get to wheel with you guy's

[@boughtnotbuiltoffroad7784]

empty pockets centrifugal supercharger don’t make much low end either. They build boost with rpm as well as turbos.

[@MrMe1280]

@@boughtnotbuiltoffroad7784 yes sir. They all require spinning up to make boost but because the sc spins off the belt vs exhaust gas pressure. The sc spins up much faster. Thus why offroads prefer them. The downside unlike a turbo the boost is limited to said belt drive whereas a turbo is able to free spin and makes much more power on the big end.

[@boughtnotbuiltoffroad7784]

empty pockets exactly. So when it shifts and rpm drops so does boost but with a turbo you have full boost after the shift. They are both great but I don’t need any more power under 3k rpm

[@importbeater24]

I went from a JK to a Forester XT to a JLUR and the one thing I miss about the subie is the turbo whine!

[@boughtnotbuiltoffroad7784]

importbeater24 well here’s your chance!

[@powelw]

I love your videos, but why bother with the 'guess what we did' when the title tells the viewer exactly what the video is about? Why not be cryptic in the title?

[@LiteBrite]

Wayne Powell For some reason, people hate when I do cryptic titles. Lol But I also wanted people to be able to search for it if they were interested.

[@Xasukis]

You guys are so awesome!

[@OldGriz708]

Sounds great! The thing I don't like about turbos for off road is the turbo lag when you need it instantly. The blower gives that boost right when you need it. But I would be more likely to go with a small block Chevy in a CJ and build my suspension.

[@boughtnotbuiltoffroad7784]

Old Griz that’s not how that works. The turbo didn’t subtract from the torque we already have from the v6 and the 5.13 gears. It’s still the same as before but adds on the mid to top end. I’ve never needed more torque below 2500 rpm

[@lesszabo5625]

Very cool, interested in the dyno numbers. Really like the install, not too bad at all. Thanks for the great video.

[@juanticimo]

I wanted a turbo as well, so i got the 2.0T, and obviously thats a big HP difference, but its still fun.

[@boughtnotbuiltoffroad7784]

Chonch the 2.0t is a great fun little motor for sure. I drove one and loved it

[@joecovey2235]

Can't wait to hear how much power you are making after the new tune and dyno run. It definitely looks like unless you have all the correct tools and lift, you'd want a place like you guys went to to do the install.

[@boughtnotbuiltoffroad7784]

Joe Covey ya a lift is nice. Not many tools were needed. And it made 363whp which is up from 220whp

[@smokiebaer]

I had a 3.8 JK 6 speed with a supercharger for a weekend and any extra power is a great thing. I'm excited to see how a turbo on a bigger motor does.

[@housegoth]

I love the demon eyes on Kevin while he’s emptying the oil from the catch can.

[@JohnSmith-sh1zg]

Awesome can’t wait to see how it performs. Being Offroad and doing water crossings I cringe at the air filter being right there in the open but I don’t see you guys in to deep of water I guess. Keep safe.

[@jpin514]

Those turbos DO have an awesome sound! Seems like a Massive undertaking. Thanks for going through it and sharing! The beauty of most modern V6 is that they can be Awakened so easily!!! I have the 3.8L in a '09 JK wrangler) I added a K & N filter ...and WOW!! Then I added a perform chip (low$$ by Volio) this took away the delay), then Dual(ish) axle back exhaust ... MORE WOW!! .. Then I added a hotter coil, Then gaped my Spark plugs to a WHOPPING .60 Gap!! 87 pump gas = W.A.F ROCKET!*#!! Yes (estimated 375 foot pounds and 315 - 320 HP) 0-60 in under 9 sec (it weighs 4K +lbs.) and [if I keep my foot out of it] over 420 mile per tank (nice on the long trails :) Thing is STUPID fast with NO delay!! People DO NOT believe it's not a V8. Thanks Again for All your videos and watch out for smokey bear on the trail with that monster! Easy to get a ticket or crashed up with that acceleration. ... Brakes?? (Upgraded Pads and Good shock / struts will save your A!) PS. If you are planning to come towards northern AZ (Sedona Red Rock District) look me up SO many Wide Oped Jeep trails in every direction with views and vistas and every turn :) - Keep it Between The Canyons -southwestjeff

[@brettduffy7572]

I guessed months ago now the fun begins👌👌👌

[@jeffhermansen8370]

Lol I know I'm late in the game. But I got to say turbos are the best! I got myself into a 2014 f150 3.5L be cuz the turbos. I have removed one pipe and want to lows for a stool leg cap now I have a nice blow off sound lol😂
