    Opinions on this 2.5 turbo kit?

    Then I snakes my exhaust from the turbo up near the battery and back down. I did have to move several ground wires and trim/shift the battery tray.

    Opinions on this 2.5 turbo kit?

    Where my finger is, is the first cut I made. Everything below my finger is stock. Everything above is what I added.

    2.5 turbo build

    Forgot to turn on my lockers on this one

    2.5 turbo build

    Update. Still running strong these past few months on 8 psi. Haven’t touched the tune since my last update. Took it out to Moab. It ran slightly richer but not too much to worry about. I’ll attach a few videos.

    2.5 turbo build

    So been having a problem getting past 5psi lately. I current have a 5psi spring in my internal Wastegate but installed a mechanical boost controller awhile ago (which essentially bleeds a small amount of air right before the wastegate) and thought I had it set to 6psi, however over the past week...

    2.5 turbo build

    Update: I’m maybe 2 weeks into the tune and no problems! Not codes/limp mode. We went jeeping this past weekend and about half way through the day I noticed my AFR at idle went from 14.5ish to 10. You could smell the extra fuel, however once in boost the AFR went to what would be expected. A few...

    2.5 turbo build

    It sure is! I started with 5lbs thinking I’ll stay at 5. Then I moved to 7lb where I’m at currently and could really tell the difference. Now I’m itching to sneak to 8-9, but I think I might be pushing my luck :/ -I ended up saving the locker. A few hours with the dremil and was able to clean...

    2.5 turbo build

    Update: Went Dow to dirty turtle off road in KY for the first time. I currently had the jeep on a 1 bar tune, which honestly worked very well for wheeling (just not highway cruising). This was the first time I really got to climb some rocks, climb some steep sketchy hills, and breaks some...

    2.5 turbo build

    So I’m pretty close on my current tune and I see exactly what you were talking about earlier. Very hard to get a constant AFR. It varies more than I expected it to be, so it’s making tuning a little tough. I almost have to tune everything a tad rich to account for variable change and still be...

    2.5 turbo build

    A little but it’s a bit confusing, and to be honest I’m kind of interested in seeing what happens. -Our jeeps do have a barometric gauge that reads right when we turn out engine on before it starts. The odd part is it reads this baro reading through our MAP sensor so even if everything was...

    2.5 turbo build

    Update #?????? So I finally got around to working in this 2 bar map tune again. I ditched the GM 2 bar just for $hits and giggles and went to a 2.25bar SRT4 map sensor. The stock map scale was set at 244 and with the GM I had to down scale to 190-210 ish. With this new one for some odd reason I...

    2.5 turbo build

    I went ahead and bought another just to be safe. The new one read the same as the old one, and oddly enough when I put the old one back in it stopped working completely :/ The whole tuning thing is starting to bug me. The bad side of all this is I have a decent 1 bar stock tune that does “ok”...

    2.5 turbo build

    So KOEO with my GM 2 bar sensor I get 2.25V and (depending on what map scaling I put in) I get anywhere from 50-70. It’s so odd. My Initial tune worked great for 2-3 hours of driving time and then through it’s first (low map sensor) code and switch to limp mode where the KPA stays at 40 no...

    2.5 turbo build

    General Update: pics below -I’ve been able to wheel it once about 3 weeks ago and had a over heating problem when going less than 2-3 miles/hour. During this trip I was also still on my stock 1 bar map tune which runs real good for wheeling but not so good at cruising speeds above 50mph...

    2.5 turbo build

    I’ve had this 4banger jeep for 15+ years. I’m use to the jokes they don’t bother. The real downside to the 2.5 is highway speed, but Offroad it’s just fine. Plenty of well built buggies use smaller 4banger with some strong gearing.

    Has anyone added a fuel return line?

    I personally put in a return line in my 2.5 because I was turbocharging my engine with a FMU so I needed a return line to properly use the FMU. I sense have removed it because I switch to HP tuners and no longer need the return. The easiest way would be to buy a YJ fuel return that has a pre...
