I'm more upset with the off the line power. The car has stock size tires and I'm only hitting 8.5-8.7 0-60 times. Not sure what could be attributed to this.

I see two problems... possibly related. First you called it a car. Second, you're judging it like a car... 0-60 times in a jeep?!

joking.. yeah, once you get the tune ironed out it'll be better. I had a RIPP on a 2011 and it was fine.

Well you are trying to move about 5000 lbs with the aerodynamics of a brick and tires that have the rolling resistance of a square all with the power of a v6. But yeah its a mystery : P

Sounds like somebody's Mall Crawler is not exactly what he thought it would be?? Its a JEEP!!, not a Corvette.

Even money this "Car" will be for sale in the next year or so.

Little upset you can't afford it or something? Seriously don't come into this thread when I'm posting about an issue to complain that I said car instead of jeep. I don't expect this to be a corvette but I do expect the performance to be better than what I had before the blower. And yes if this jeep doesn't perform the way I expect it I will probably sell it, got a problem? If I'm spending enough money I should get the gains that I expect so.

I took my 2007 to a local engine tuner and the results were great. If the stock tune doesn't work to your satisfaction after RIPP helps you then a custom tune may be the way to go. I gained both torque and hp as well as they adjusted my peddle.

I too recently installed one on our 2008 JK and the thing is a Rocket compared to stock. Very happy with the way it runs.

Check and see if you left a rag in the intercooler or piping...Happened to a guy on JKO.

oh geez.. lighten up Francis. Sounds like you didn't do your homework before spending that cash. Now you're skin is thin and can't take any ribbing. Spending the money doesn't guarantee you get the gains you expect if you didn't know what to expect. That's exactly what this sounds like. Your expectations weren't based on reality.
