I was just wondering if you guys, or anyone else you know of (besides Hennessey:p) has an under hood turbo kit for the Jeeps? I would really like to do a turbo setup, but don't like the idea of having it and my intake hanging out at my back bumper.

His sig says: BUILT & TUNED BY EXTREME PERFORMANCE (ABUDHABI)

How about one a little closer?

I believe there is a guy in Houston that has put a twin turbo in a Charger.

First time I saw this one. This sounds pretty deadly.

The hennessey uses a rear mount...not an under hood

RSI is also a rear mount

The first thing I did when people were asking about underhood turbos was look through your threads.

How is your jeep now? lets see some current pics/vids.

Your jeep was running 700 rwhp in its infancy?? I knew your sled was wound out but didn't think it was better than 700!

Well I would show you some.... but the transmission is toast. Myself and several others across the country are waiting on the upgraded NAG1.

Yes the motor puts out 700+ at the wheels, we're shooting for higher numbers after the tranny.

OH... one more thing, I'm on deployment and I'll be in Baghdad all next week and maybe until September, lol.

Sure is... and I believe tomorrow is delivery day as well. Things got pushed back a week or so due to Hurricane Fay going through Florida. Lets hope the Jeep breaks 10's before Gustov hits.

The tranny is loaded up and I'll be headed your way in about 6 hours!

Bill, someday I'm going to show up on your door step with a bunch of cash and give you my jeep for a month. Do you only do trannys and transfer cases, or do you also do engine work?

So you're not using yours right now then right.......:D

I'm not looking for anything that radical. I live in New Mexico at 5300 feet and forced induction rules up in this thin air. I'm already losing 25% for elevation and I'm tired of getting my butt kicked by every forced induction vehicle that comes along. Namely a Typhoon with just an upgraded coverter!!! I just want my 25% back, plus maybe a little more, you know what I'm saying? Something like 6lbs. of boost. Then I can upgrade form there.;)

Just a small intercooled kit is all I was wanting.

RDPs kit is manifold mounted. They have singles and twins. Pricey, but if thats what you're looking for they're the way to go.
