I worked at a jeep dealership for a few years and have seen plenty of non-modified 3.8s go bad and need a new longblock, can't imagine how poor the durability and longevity would be with a supercharger on one and getting beat on all the time...I think I'll just continue to put around town and have my fun on the trails...besides my tires are too expensive to be doing burnouts lol

It's a jeep, not a Ferrari. Just a little in your face as far as the underpowered thing goes.

Back on topic.... headers.

Put it into perspective. If we had our headers made in Mexico like our competitors, they would cost less. We didn't. Our header design went though 7 different prototype designs to get the power, fit, and finish that it has.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nweruqcef5k Our competitor forced induction system advertises 218 whp for @$4000.00

Just our RIPP header gives you 180 NA WHP! @$1800.00

Puts into perspective what you get for the price.
