OK I called Justin at Arrington Engines and what an informative guy. The Mopar exhaust and CAI are around the corner as well as the TUNE. This stuff states officially will be out by February and a tune with EAton super charger will be ready by March...But he thinks it will probably be sooner...Like within 30 days. Not sure if this is true just reporting what I heard. Can't wait.

Hope it's true but Diablo will have the tuning ability before then. Doubt any Mopar offered stuff will be covered by any warranty. Also, with a CR of 10.9:1, getting too high to run boost. It'll be good to have more options though, it'll help the community in general.

It will be good to have options. I can't wait for the day the WK2 jeeps have as many mod options as the WK1

I can't imagine a wrangler with a 6.4. Sounds like a death trap! But a fun one!

Curious to see how they run the intake on the Wk2.

You haven't driven the right one than! I've seen a stock 6.4 in a 2dr wrangler manual roast all 4 37.5" tires from a roll.

I 2nd that...I've been waiting for Mopar to do this for years. With a couple suspension upgrades V8 wrangles are amazing to drive! Totally different vehicle all together from a V6.
