I think 50 HP for under $1000 is a good deal.
What's the old adage from the Mad Max movies?
Speed = Money . . . So how fast do you want to go?
Offroad with the 4:1 t-case crawling up rocks and hills it's fine as a stocker.
Where the pathetic 3.8 really bugs me is off the line and towing up a long hill.
I think one of those variable throttle NO2 switches would be great for towing.
I don't need 250 HP all the time, just when I get the 'Happy Foot'

One things for sure, John, if he wanted to know what the guts of the engine looked like, all he had to do was put more nitrous on it. LOL

Nitrous Oxide gets a bad rap. People are putting superchargers on there Jk and getting about 70-80hp more then stock. The manufacturer builds engines with a safety margin for more hp for longevity.

Horsepower is horsepower, the engine doesnt care. I am not telling you what to do, I personally wouldn't do it but the engine stock can safely take 50-75 shot of Nitrous all day long. Anymore then that then you would have to address fuel, fuel pressure regulator, msd ignition box to retard the timing.

I installed a 100hp kit for a guy who had a 3.8 camaro back in the day. Also installed a fuel pressure regulator and retarded the timing 3 degrees when it hit. Its my understanding that this is the same engine. I was told by the mechanics from Jeep.

This is why I have a sports car and a Jeep. When I feel the urge to go fast I drive my Porsche Turbo 951.
