Highway speeds is where I need more power which is where the Ripp shines.

Ripp has a $3000 dollar kit too. I have been watching this thread closely. The 3k price of the Sprintex got my attention and I was preparing myself to order. With Sprintex's tuning issues,the fact that Ripp has a kit for the same money minus the tuning issues,and the fact that ; although the low end torque advantage the Sprintex is great for crawling and pulling, the low end torque places greater strain on the transmission.

well popped into Sprintex HQ here in Perth, Australia - and want to say they were EXTREMELY helpfull. Specially considering I had bought the jeep off someone else who had bought their kit & installed it himself. I had a couple issues & they were more than happy to address them free of charge. As it was one of their first released models they stripped the blower & installed revised oil seals & an oil sight glass mod - they said its very important to regulary check oil level, and found no one bothered to do so with the old filler/level plug design.
As for someone mentioning us Aussies running the HT tuners, Sprintex gave me a new Diablo with an updated tune to replace my old HT unit. I've only had it for a day so far so can't comment on any changes over the old HT tune yet. They've taken a log & sent it off to RPM for some fine tuning & I should have that installed soon hopefully.
They didnt have a prototype of the stg 2 upgrade at their workshop, but he showed me a new Toyota 86 they just put a kit on, it had the same heat exchanger setup with a small elec. water pump they plan on using for the JK's, looked nice.

Haha I wish I was. My JK would already be supercharged. To be honest, I am really not dissatisfied with my JK's power. I still have some other things I want to do with my Jk before supercharging, so I am just waiting it out. The Sprintex looks like a very nice unit. If my timing works out just right, Sprintex will have eliminated the tuning kinks around the time my other mods are done, my warranty is up, and my JK is paid off.
