Hi guys,

This is my first post. It's been a years now that I'm reading you. I've bought my KK 2009 new exactly one year ago cause my XJ 96 U-frame broke in a fishing trip.... I like my KK buy it feels heavier and not as powerful as my previous XJ w/4.0. So what do you guys think of this :

Is it true or a marketing BS ?

Also, I just switched to synthetic oil (castrol syntec 5w-20 and keeping receipt for warranty) and the engine is surprinsingly smoother and no ticking an cold start... the difference is amazing. But not more powerful.

Thanks !

ya youre not going to gain that much from an exhaust. its cheaper to just replace the giant turd of a muffler under the jeep with a more free flowing one because the existing piping is already 2.5" and mandrel bent. some people claim more power and a couple more mpg's doing this.

an exhuast won't do very much unless its paired with a good intake also

Still will do nothing without the throttle body and PCM programming to take advantage of the increased airflow in and out.

indeed you are correct... i mean what you will feel is the curve bgin to flatten out... btu again with the torque management system you will never gain very much.... thats why b&G is coming real soon!
