Pathetic 0-60 time...

Sure he can if enough money is spent. But, pretty much, increasing 0-60 times is then no longer measured by a calendar (lol), but by "amount of gas consumed" per second".
As with most things, while fun, it is not free.
If your engine is stout, just RIPP it.

While I agree, this is also my daily driver. Entering the north end of the i17 where the speed limit is 75mph and everyone is doing 85mph is embarrassing - I feel like I'm driving an 18 wheeler up the grapevine.
However, driving this slow pig has made me appreciate my “fast” car a lot more. lol
The jeep needs something. A turbo, supercharger, v8 engine, to be dropped out of a plane...

I have an 2011 2 Dr. Hard Top & Automatic. I find the overall Performance very acceptable. 373's & 33" Nitto Terra Grapplers. 16-18 MPG City, 19-21 HWY. It beats the Hell out of my 04' TJ Auto.

So I tried out the data logger on the superchips and the best my jeep (with 35x12.5x20s, 4" LA lift, LOD bumper, armor...) could muster was a 13.3x. Is this pretty close to what others are seeing? This was on a 93 tune. I think I may have over compensated my octane and was running 100 octane, which could’ve hurt in the long run.
Ill be going back to stock tune soon and 87 octane so I will have something to compare to. Then Ill load up the 87 tune. Depending on my results I may redo the 93 tune.
Either way, 13.3 0-60 is pretty slow.

I can't believe we are discussing 0-60 in our jeeps...
let's lower it, put on some 22's and ground effects... With that being said, if we are discussing performance to better help on the trails, then yes, it's a reasonable thread IMO. !
