I need help with a Jeep Wrangler?
My father-in-law has a 1995 Jeep Wrangler with a 2.5L L4 engine. I am wanting to help him squeeze as much horsepower out of the motor as possible. It will be rebuilt back up to stock specs and am wondering what “bolt-on” parts are available to help do this. I suggested having the engine bored .40 over and perhaps ported and polished. I already suggested a racing cam and a racing crank, cold-air intake, racing plugs and wires, high-flow headers, a performance head manifold and a 20 P.S.I turbo charger. All of this will most likely de done, but what else can I do to achieve the goal of maximum possible horsepower under the hood. I am trying to reach 100 B.H.P. per cylinder. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
THANKS!
Also, do you know of any good Jeep performance web sites and/or magazines?
I’m kind of curious why you would want to put that kind of time and money into that engine, unless of course it falls under the category of – because I can.
It is doable although with this particular engine you’ll get better results with a super- rather that a turbo-charger, but will it be worth the work in the end? With 400BHP you’ll need to replace the transmission and rear axle at minimum or plan on joining AAA for their towing service.
If this is for off-roading your money is far better spent in gearing and wheels. Nothing will get more return on your investment than this.
