Well my buddy and I finally got around to installing that upper manifold and jeep TB today and all I can say is whoa! On the highway I found myself checking to see if the car was in 4th instead of 5th because it was accelerating as if it was. I think I will definitely be able to get down to a 15.5 with the 17's up front, but Im gonna put the 14's up there and gut the car just to make sure :) On top of the performance gains the car also makes turbo like noises at part and WOT (and yes I know what a turbo car sounds like). In fact when the TB is opening and closing it makes an interesting whistling sound then as well. The only downsides to it that I can see is my Nuespeed bar wont fit anymore (so it will be for sale). If you guys want a write up let me know and I will show you the thread my buddy made on the Carolina DSM board

Sweet stuff, definetly want a how to

yes, definately a writeup would be sweet. It sounds like a beneficial mod. Just wondering how much changing around n shit you had to do.


96 Talon ESi Mods
apex' dunk exhaust
injen short ram
magnecore 8.5mm wires
front/rear strut tower bars
custom painted interior
carbon fiber hood

cool. what did u pay for it and what modifications does it require

Damnit! I'm days away. DAYS AWAY!!!! Can't wait to fell the Jeep TB.

This is the wierdest thing. I had a AMC once, I put a Jeep 258 motor and a Chrystler 318 carb on it. Now I've got a Mitsu, and Im putting a Jeep 4.0L TB on it. Just a bit wierd and coincidental. I suppose the next step is that I would put the Chrystler 2.4 in my Mitsubishi with a Jeep TB....just wierd.

well this is the link, Doug basically explained all of the modifications that he did in order for it to work. We have decided to start making these and selling them Hurricane GS style w/ a core charge. We need to get more jeep TB's, but we will send you a modified upper manifold w/ the jeep Tb and instructions. How many would be interested in something like that??

Here is the link to the modifications we had to do

Dude....I'm down. I have a spare intake manifold sitting here in my garage as well....keep me updated on this. I think my set-up will REALLY like a 60mm TB :)

>How many would be interested in something
>like that??

Umm... I would. How much are we talking here?

Im definetly interested, how much????

I'm in. How much are we talking about?

count me in too! i'll jump all over this

You have my complete attention! Whats the damage to my leather friend

wow! well let me talk to my friend and I will get back to you guys. I would need both your stock upper manifold and TB so that will cover the core charge. Ill let you guys know how much we are talking about either tonight or tomorrow (eastern standard time)

werd

I would be interested in this!!!! I can get a hold of a 95 Jeep 4.0 TB with all the sensors and everything... would this work???? let me know also i have a spar intake man and a TB just laying around ;)

aww seriously you can't use the neuspeed bar with it?! well there goes that idea. I will never sacrifice suspension for power :P

i'm interested!

Ditto

Havent forgotten about you guys, we are coming up with some terms of sale (disclaimers) so everything will be laid out up front, but we should have all that ready tonight.

Count me in! What is the turn around time if I send you my stuff?

Turn around will probably be around a week and a half to 2 weeks, but we will also be selling complete set-ups, but you will have to pay the core charge (which you will get back once we recieve your stock upper manifold and TB)

oh and so no one locks the thread I will post here to let you know when I put the info in the for sale section.

What's the estimated install time and what mods will I have to do myself?

well it only took us about 30 min with a lift. All you will have to do is replace your stock tb and upper manifold with the one that we supply. No additional modification is required, other than extending a vaccumn hose and we will include the additonal hose with the stuff along with installation instructions that you will need.

I just want to let you know if you guys have any problems I might be able to help. I've had my Jeep TB for over 7 months now with NO problems.

I gone through some problems when I first did the mod.

My fuel seems fine and i'm also running nitrous.

You can email me if needed at Talon95Stang@cs.com

I hope you can get these out. This is a great mod in my book. I just like to do something different than most.

Sorry it took so long to respond, but we are going to start selling these now. Check the sale/wanted section for details
