I'm running the Banks CAI, Superchips TD2, Borla cat-back, and 5.13s. One-tons and 40's, and the Jeep runs great. Has plenty of power. And I get 13-14mpg.
I wouldn’t waste a dime on modifications to the 3.6 engine - Especially if you’re pushing 37’s.. I was in a predicament with my 2016 JK of replacing the camshaft for $3500 plus the 65,000 mile maintenance in which I would be putting close to $5000 into this engine. Instead, I went with an engine swap to a 5.3 gle. It is a complete GAME CHANGER compared to the 3.6 that gives a heavy jeep pushing big tires VERY LITTLE power compared to the 5.3 - especially when going up hills on uneven trails etc.. It was a little pricey upfront but the 5.3 is very cost effective and it’s a great engine/Far more reliable than the stock 3.6.. and it’s now like driving a tank compared to a sedan. I was completely blown away by how much better the drivability is, the acceleration, power, tork, reliability etc. etc. and In the long run this is way more cost effective and a WAY better ride and compared to the amount of money that you will be putting into the 3.6 engine in the long run, ITS Way more reliable and SO WORTH IT AND... With the 5.3, you won’t need to go buy a muffler to make your engine “sound” tough. You’re Engine WILL be tough!
I just picked up a used 2013 with the 3.6 in it, my first jeep. I think the 3.6 is a good engine that makes 285hp -300 plus hp (depending on the exhaust), but the power curve is better suited for a light road race car than a Jeep. Sure, it makes 285hp, but at red line,--so the lower rpm torque is soft. I am not doing off roading, (I bought it for short business trips and hauling a small dirt bike trailer), but it is the automatic transmission that I pretty much hate. Actually, I think I hate all the new vehicles.
@@sector783 you were being charged $3500 for a 3.6 cam bro 🤣🤣 then they clowned you even further into putting a 5.3 pile into your rig 😂 atleast do a 5.7 lmfao you got ripped off to death chief. Good night
@@noahpaynenoahgayne7309Yeah, I actually could have gotten it done at the time for about 2900 out the door at a private shop but it was about 2 hours away from me. Plus, I have another two years of warranty that guarantees the dealership’s work. So no complaints.. I love the 5.3 - works absolutely perfect for how I use my jeep. In any case, I am quite sure I won’t be bothered by the negative comments made by some low life gucci clown on TH-cam. LOL
My 2015 JKU has a Pedal commander, its nice for having it set to eco mode when I'm just driving around locally but then I can on the fly switch it to city, sport or sport+ when hitting the interstate to help get up to interstate speeds easier because the pedal sensitivity changes and allows you to speed up with less effort.
The axles are the only good advice in this video. Keep your stock intake, don't waste money and time putting in a throttle body spacer, and leave your exhaust on.
agree with ya.. that thing is built to do some rock crawling.. except for the big wheels.. Id go back to 17s... then hit the trails.. the jeep is seriously impressive off road.. why not have fun with it.. i admit i slowed down after i got some pinstripping on mine.. but i just went back out last weekend.. was so fun.. being able to go where others vehicles will never be able to go.. thats what the jeep is for.
@@manilaboy1vic I tried a lot of offroading with mine and no fun it's boring af useless ur actually trying to get to a special location. Jeep is made for street purposes w the side gigs of offroading, towing, music, ect... There is no purpose to the car u can get creative with it and customize it or put it in 4wd 24/7 and beat the shit out of it bc 4wd I guess. A wrangler just like a pick up becomes a multipurposed vehicle. The jks that were used for a lot of offroading become a rust bucket that is hard to sell even w how well they maintain value, and the ones that aren't beaten up have small replacements hear and there but end up being reliable af. What u considered fun is ur opinion end of day his car if he plans to offroad w it or not neither u or I should care... It's not like his car hasn't been off pavement once I'm pretty sure there's a rsn as to y he cares abt it. I wouldn't consider a newer jeep the best investment for a full time offroad vehicle but whatever.
That's a nice hot air intake, what do you have to protect water from getting inside the engine? You have nothing to protect it from what I see, I would advise you to add a different intake systems leave that intake for the imports.
Not the way he has it setup. He is drawing air from the engine compartment making it worse than the factory setup. Because the intake is not drawing from outside the the engine compartment he effectively nullified the benefits from any performance increase from having a cold air intake. But yes, when setup correctly you will see a 2-8 hp increase.
Salem AlFalasi I actually got it for a tv show they installed that and some lights on the hood that I’ve since removed. It’s like a spod just a different brand. I know rough country has one this one is zombie offroad I believe
You shouldnt be going down in MPG with a regear. A regear should be saving you gas because now it doesnt take as much to get going and travelling down the highway will also save you gas because your not at a higher rpm
Don’t waste a penny on those dana 44s! Those axles are absolutely junk. I made this mistake unfortunately. Just get dana 60s and be done with it. I wouldn’t waste my money on one of those “cold air intakes” they don’t make any power in fact they usually cost you power. I wouldn’t mess with a 3.6 these engines are just never going to have the low end torque you want in a jeep. Sure you can put a roots or other positive displacement blower on it and make some, but your engine will blow up if you try to load it up at low rpms. My advice is either do a diesel swap or leave it alone. I drove one with a 4bt Cummins swapped JK and it was amazing. Unfortunately while the rest of the world got a diesel jeep we got screwed, be sure to thank our communist government for that. Trust me I have a 3.8 and that gutless pile of junk has managed to break transfer cases, axles, driveshafts, ect. More power just breaks more stuff faster. Oh and put an atlas transfer case in as soon as the stock pile of shit t case blows up! I also made that mistake and replaced mine twice before upgrading to the Atlas!
I dont respect jeep owners who keep they're jeeps Cadillac clean like this , this tells you , he hardly goes off roading. So 0 likes From me and no subscribe
Yuridiana.....Yup and people that think like you are part of the reason why finding used jeeps with solid frames are damn near impossible these days. Ding dongs like you would rather keep the mud on them like you got something to prove! This man bought and built his Jeep and anyone with half a brain can Clearly see that he has a shyt ton of money into it! And will also still have it 20 years from now because he isn't stupid enough to let it rot away by leaving mud on it "like the cool kids do"! 🤣🤣.
I know this video is 3 years old but I have to say I absolutely love your jeep

Worth it?

Dude sick upgrades but how about some budget friendly upgrades? Lol
Love the orange! Good looking rig.
LOVE the color! Mine is Sunset Orange Pearl.
Love what you're putting out, keep them comin!
Kyle Weed thanks I’m always looking for feedback and to see what the viewers wanna see!
That thing is CLEAN!
Some are built for show and some are built to go.
Love the color matched bumpers and flares.
Fantastic looking ride my friend!
Seriously nice jeep. Funny, lots of nice HD off roading mods for the mall.😐 Barely looks like you drive it.
Michael S. J. Yup when you pay for it you can drive where you want to lol
@@SethRighi
True dat. Just seems weird to spend that much money on mods that never get used. Just my opinion. Nice rig though.

That's a nice hot air intake, what do you have to protect water from getting inside the engine? You have nothing to protect it from what I see, I would advise you to add a different intake systems leave that intake for the imports.
That is a Very nice jeep you have built.
Phillip Smith thanks!
Great Jeep
Love the jeep
Sean Mason thanks brother should have some new updates here soon when it warms up some
Hey! I know this is late but how does the cold air intake do with mud and puddles?
He said it almost never goes offroad
With all of your modifications do you think you’re able to tow a 4 seater side by side or a wakeboard boat for short distances?
Rashad Sanders depends on the weight
Sweet looking Jeep, show ready!!! It really needs 01 on the front doors and a rebel flag....
Dirt Hammers Off-Road appreciate it 🤘🏼
@dirt hammers off road....I don’t know dude, that’s for dudes who make out with their sisters 😂😂🤔
As a estimate how much do you think you put into this jeep excluding the actual jeep
Ten4productions never added it all up prob more than I wanna admit 😂
Backwards forward intake manifold TB Cai. Headers cat back minimum gains. Gears
Great looking ride. What fenders are you using?
Nvm saw Poison spider in the comments. Looking to color match mine.
Great tips and ideas.
I'm having a hard time deciding on a front bumper for my gladiator if anyone have any option on a bumper please do share
jeep lova look at genright, cavfab, motobuilt, all great companies
@@SethRighi thanks ill check them out.
Hood gas shocks should be number1
Exactly how is that a cold air intake with the filter still pulling HOT under hood air?
Anyone behind you gets rocks in their windshield, with those useless fenders in the rear.
THE AIR FILTER YOU INSTALLED ISN'T THE ONE YOU LISTED IN THE LINKS 😢
Is a cold air intake really worth it for a jeep (truck/suv)?
Not the way he has it setup. He is drawing air from the engine compartment making it worse than the factory setup. Because the intake is not drawing from outside the the engine compartment he effectively nullified the benefits from any performance increase from having a cold air intake.
But yes, when setup correctly you will see a 2-8 hp increase.
The inner fenders are open there is some fresh air that comes in from the inner fenders but yes open air is better
I have a k&n series 77 cai and it did nothing performance wise. It sounds better when I nail the gas but that’s about it
Where can I get that hood for my Jk? I love it!!!
So how does that intake do when you go off road and hit water? Does that Jeep even go off road?
Did you have to unlock the ECU to use that tuner?
sweet ride, whats on top of the fuse box?
Salem AlFalasi I have all my lights wired to it. It’s a control box for auxiliary outputs
Seth Righi where did u get it from I would like to read more about it
Salem AlFalasi I actually got it for a tv show they installed that and some lights on the hood that I’ve since removed. It’s like a spod just a different brand. I know rough country has one this one is zombie offroad I believe
@@SethRighi thanks highly appreciated. Keep up the good work.
I'd call that an engine compartment hot air suck intake.
What's your thought on doing 4.88 in my Dana 30?
John Howze IV buy bigger axels
What head unit was that. Looks like a Tesla swap
I like your fenders. What are they?
posion spyder
You shouldnt be going down in MPG with a regear. A regear should be saving you gas because now it doesnt take as much to get going and travelling down the highway will also save you gas because your not at a higher rpm
Incorrect. You’ll be revving higher all the time and will burn more fuel, 100% guaranteed you’ll burn more fuel with regear
@devlinsemmler8236 Not when stock it had 32" tires and now it has 37" tires. It will probably be the same as original rpm at speed.
What fenders do you have? I’m interested in some color match aftermarket fender flares
Chris Sheppard posion Spyder full width aluminum
look like you had a water leak at one time by the looks of the weahter sripping in the door so what did you do to fix that and do u have a video
Original owners did that I’m the second owner. It’s never out in the rain since I’ve had it
So I just got my Jeep and 2k in, how much did all this cost?
I’d have to add it all up
Changing gears?
Which middle console Nav/Media system are you using?
Paul Evans scicane I made a video about it.
Seth Righi appreciate that
Well I am done with this channel please correct me if I am wrong. But did he say that never goes off road? 🤔
Is the Trailer Dash 2 necessary for an Automatic?
