JK acceleration sucks
My 08 jk has terrible acceleration compared to my moms 2012 jk. What can I do to improve my acceleration? It's like if I want to get it to accelerate then It has to go over 4,000 RPMs. Both jks are stock Sahara unlimiteds.

If I had the cash to blow on a super charger I think I'd go sprintex. Twin screw = lower RPM boost. RIPP is pretty active on this forum, and try to tell you different..but they are trying to get your $.(as any business) so I don't fault them, just research on your personal needs/wants before you buy and you should be happy with whatever u choose to do.

You can't really compare the two, they have completely different engines and transmissions. Nothing cheap is going to make you happy regarding a direct comparison, so learn to live with the performance, or start saving.
