Spot on my friend 
Why is it when someone here talks about speed or 0-60 people get so upset?
The truth is probably 95% of people use a jeep as a daily driver. Very few can afford one just for off road use.
So in reality those asking about speed are justified. It would be a kin to someone saying "my jeep keeps getting stuck" then people saying "why are you going off road with it?".
Both uses are valid and it's Chrysler that's not forward thinking enough to put enough power in a multipurpose vehicle. IMO

We had no before on this particular JK - He bought the headers and installed them himself - then brought it to us for the diablo custom tune... Typically JK's set up like his will produce 130ish whp and 150ish ft/lbs or trq.
The tune is only available through the Diablo sport predator - we provide the tune for free with purchase.

We are not alone...
Land Rover Defender 90 (2.4 liter diesel, 235 tires): top speed 82 mph; 0-60 mph in 15.2 seconds.
Hummer H1, as recorded by Edmund, 0-60 mph in approximately 16.5 seconds.
If you like your four wheel drive a little faster, may I suggest the 2012 Nissan GT-R, 0-60 in 2.9 seconds.

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. !

People that own sports cars check there 0-60. People with Jeeps measure the incline or how high the rock is and the depth of the water. So what are you going to do A)get a sports car or B) go drive the Jeep the was intended to be. Hint: pick B it is more fun.
