Happy to see more people doing this, back in 2016 all i got was crap talkers saying a turbo on a 4.0 is useless.. now look 1,000 plus people finally are figuring it out!
i would suggest getting a bigger intercooler up front, intake temps will sky rocket unless you are using methanol injection. most ive had was 22-23 psi 14 deg of timing. broke a ringland from intake temps climbing, being a newer i6 you have the weaker pistons so be careful. also if you dont have management HPtuners supports 96+ jtec ecu's just flash and rescale a dodge srt4 map sensor.
@@mikee2290 my kit is setup properly I’m in the 320whp-340whp range on low boost. I am on ms2 v3.0 I built myself and tuned myself. On average the people in our boosted 4.0 group are making 400whp-600whp with minor details, as with every build efficiency is your friend.
I’m 24 years old and have owned my TJ since I’m 15, I’ve always wanted to turbo it but never got around to it since I’ve been building my e36.. after seeing this I think it’s time to turbo my 4.0 🙂 would love an update video on this
I like how your intake is setup. That's much cleaner than mine. I ran the intercooler over the top like a Subaru. I might change mine to a setup similar to yours. Mines a 2.5L. Good Idea with the exhaust too. Nice setup. Looks fun.
Sounds cool I have an 04 wrangler would love to have a turbo to be honest, but wouldn’t care that much about horsepower gains would just love to hear that sound
I am just now considering a Turbo for my very very similar set up. Any worries about water intake and I mean getting that filter soaked and sucking in water
7 months late, but look up "Newcomer racing" (They are featured on "The Horsepower Monster" channel here on TH-cam. Newcomer Racing also has a website, but bottom line is they Specialize in AMC/Jeep 4.0 builds and R&D. He just cracked 1,000 horsepower on a turbo 4.6 stroker build this year!
Thats wild to me you dont have injectors, fuel pump, nor any tuning. When i turboed mine it wouldnt run right at all without all that i have a split se ond. And i have ran 24lbs,32lbs,36lbs, and 42lbs injectors and its favorite is 36 with 59 psi fuel pressure...but i think my cam bearings are shot since im loosing oil pressure when hot..i have an LS to throw in but cant decide to rebuild this 4.0 or go all in on a twin turbo fully built LM7
I have a 2.5 running 6psi with no tuning. It works fine. I have one way valves venting pressure away from the map sensor. Doesn't sound cool like this though. My turbo is pretty quiet.
All that turbo and its even harder to hook up off pavement because he hasnt done lockers or limited slips. Turbo is cool for sure; call me old but I think gearing, axles and traction are money better spent on a Jeep. If you want forced induction the better route in a 4x4 is supercharger instead of turbo because you get instant torque with a super instead of having to spin up your engine all the time. Seems like a real good way to burn clutches and blow head gaskets.
A turbo can spool instantaneously if sized correctly. A small turbo will give instant low rpm boost, where a large will come in late and support higher revs. It depends on what you want, but I don't rev my Toyota 3F 4.0 engine higher than 3000 rpm, so I would install a Holset HX25 or HX30 from the 4BT cummins. Supercharger typically consumes half of the power it adds, so by nature it's a parasite, and much less efficient. Allows for a cleaner install though. Regardless, I'd be gapping the rings for boost before installing anything.
Boost increases cylinder temperatures, which requires larger ring gaps. I keep seeing people add turbos and superchargers without tearing into the engine to change the ring gap for boost. Anyone who knows please chime in, but is there a level of PSI that is safe for stock ring gaps? Say 3-4 PSI, or should even those levels have appropriate gap?

That thing runs so rich you could've told me it had a 12v Cummins in it and I would've believed you.
I just asked myself if it was a diesel lmao
@@driftingbrandonc.6480 lol sadly its not but the 4.0 is still a cool engine
@@driftingbrandonc.6480 Makes even more convincing since they both have the same firing order funny enough, eitherway its cool
It just run LEAN ya cornfed muthafuckas undersyand thay one dont you im dead
It needs all that fuel when the turbo spools
i would love to see an update video on this to see how its running and how the motor is holding up with it
Самый тупой и глупый обзор wrangler, что вы этим показали ?😂
Those four liters were awesome motors stock I can't even imagine throwing some boost on it Nice little build❤

Thanks for the insight so far she’s holding up good and yea still a lot of people saying these 4.0s are useless but let them hate lol

@@keatonrink8446Hello sir, I have a 1995 wrangler sport 4.0 Jeep do you think I could turbo it just like this one?
Man, now I'm gonna blow up my '99 TJ with 250k miles...this is wayyyyy to cool! 🔥

Intercooler right on top of the block, great idea.

Bro you need a hood scoop for that top mount intercooler
Bad ass! Stay on the grind!
Have you monitored fuel mileage at all to see what the turbo has done for you?
Wonder what a proper cam, mild portung, timing and ring gap would do for one of these

What bumpers do you have on that? I love them
So what part of Michigan are you in? I have the same turbo kit just interested to see how hard it was to install it all I have a 2002 though.
Wow so amazing
Tell us about drivability and tuning, we are all curious....
lol, from the sound of it and blowing black I thought for sure it was diesel even thought the title said Turbo 4.0.

This is an inline engine not a v8 or a v6 makes more sense for a turbo to be added than a supercharger.
Looking into doing this to my yj I’m from northern mi how can I get ahold of you for more info on that setup?
@dustincubitt5297
*This is badass*
more please did you do injectors and fuel pump, did it come with headers? what year?
98, Came with headers, stock fuel pump and injectors
Headers from 2018 RUSTED

.030 gaps are fairly common for boosted motors. Having a higher mileage motor actually helps with this aspect as the gap opens up with wear
Tell me it still lives...
That turbo really makes difference on the highway going 70 miles And why you selling your jeep now
Had our fun with it time for a new project
@@boostcrutv Aka, we beat the living 💩 out of it, and it's toast now! Time to pass it on to some fool. 😆
black smoke??? eyeing this kit
Running super rich right now that’s why you are seeing the smoke
@@CutingEdgeFab headstuds done? holy shit, yea she pig rich WOW. How is it on the highway now?
@RavenHiker89 we got some highway pull videos I’ll have him post for ya but it does just fine factory studs
What all was in your specific kit??
Frickin' gnarly
Sound like a mix of a 2j and a cummins
Poor mans 2j
How was it tuned?
To run RICH
Tell me i am lying 😂
original computer or is tune it
with the turbo kit can you retain the factory ac?
I believe so yeah
Straight six turbo makes sense
Yes, this is what we like to see👀! How about a few smokey burnouts??? You gotta sacrifice tires/money for views sometimes😉
Lol we got to see if it makes it much longer first
This is perfect 👍 did you need an ECU piggyback or any, or did you just bolt it all up with the waste Gate set
I Believe he bolted with waste gate set
Terminals 10mm socket BAM
Fuck this garage RUMMMMM i dont give a fuck about this house anyhow. Bro LEGENDARY lol
What did you do for tuning and does this have the stock fuel system?
Stock fuel system, and in this video it is untuned.. why it's running rich
Have you tuned it since?
Shit definitely start right up so it was injecting something
Let's see more of this
It sounds like it needs a tube really badly.
how many HP now??
Enough to knock down that whole fucken house.
😂😅😂😂😂😂😂🎉 paaaqqakaaaaaa
Turbo size ?
68 mm
@@boostcrutvWill that turbo fit 2000 sport xj ?
Turbo kit name???
60k on motor perfect for FI 😊
She bad
Sounds mean
Xj is better 🤷♂️
Stock axles gears and driveshaft ?
Yeah. it blew out an axle shaft last time we went out
Lmfao I BETTTTTT 😂
