rms2001 is right about a jeep wj, with a 4.7 it screws off the line and not just for an suv its quick in general, top end to about a hundreds good too( not many cars have an advantage of two different second gears ) and if u wanna talk mods if u strap on a kenne belle to a jeep wj you better hold on that thing'll move. Don't get me wrong a jeep grand Cherokee won't beat a skyline or evo 9 but it'll smoke any civic it comes across, and of course a $125K Mercedes( off the line till about 30mph but after that all bets are off). so just cause its got a jeep badge and a 7 slot grill don't underestimate it.

my wj

Its about time a fellow WJ owner chimed in here, and backed me up. Nicely said Lemon Crevice. The 4.7L is good ‘til about 110MPH, but any thing above 100MPH the engine is just screaming though… I traded my 2000 for a 2004 Overland. Man that HO V8 is AWESOME! That extra 30HP or so really makes a difference when a little Honduh pulls up to the light and thinks hes a badass b/c he has a NOS sticker and gay rims.

Its to bad you can’t get a supercharger for the HO. The next step is to tear apart the block, install ROSS light weight pistons, new 206 CAMS, and port the heads. All ready have the new exhaust, FIPK and a FASTMAN 68mm throttle body installed, sounds GREAT. While the engine is out, I may just punch it out to a 5.0L, but haven’t decided yet.

What year is your WJ? From the looks of your grill I'm guessing 01 or 02?

mines an 02 limited with the standard 4.7,i couldn't imagine how fast a HO would be.

I had mine up to 115MPH the first night I had it. I figured if I was gonna brake it, I better do it now. According to DaimlerChrysler the HO will push the WJ to 128MPH with out the limiter.

To be perfectly honest, I’d rather have an 02 Limited / Overland than the 04. More goodies.

the vehicles at my humble abode

the ever popular, and reliable, GEO STORM!


^^ greatest car ever made. Hands down.


Also, F150

 
Truck is alright I suppose, New paint 3 weeks ago, 35's on stainless steel rims, chrome bumpers, tunnel cover on back, nice auio system, etc but its no Geo Storm!


Also, the monster jeep with a 400 hp Chev 350 in it







This jeep is a friggin monster, faster than a lot of muscle cars around here (low end), and loud as hell!
