Where did you get 40 hp? They're showing over 125 rwhp increase

The +40 sounds like the 3.8 numbers over the 3.6 baseline.

It's not around a 40hp increase, it's over 100hp. Your looking at the numbers at the crank and comparing that to hp numbers at the wheel. Your jeep in a stock configuration only gets about 180 to 190 at the wheels. So 6000 for over a 100hp increase on 37s is really good. I'm in on this.

Trip to MOAB! Our 6speed is on the dyno now, still waiting for our AUTO to get back. Reviewing the logs and data now, making adjustments.

Just curious, but what kind of average mpg are you getting with these jeeps.

37s on 5.13 gears though guys. That's an absolutely RIDICULOUSLY over geared 2012. Even with 37s.

How about some real world numbers like 35s with 4.10s or 35s with 4.56s?

Are we talking 75 HP then?

I'm pretty sure that gearing is irrelevant from whp numbers..
