Jeeping

Here I am in my 2005 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon at the Hollister SVRA. I bought it new in ’05 and have been building on it ever since. When I took it home, the first thing I did was gut the interior and have it coated with Line-X to make it rust-proof and pretty much indestructible. I’ve added a 4 1/2″ Rock Krawler long-arm lift kit to clear the 35″ tires and too many other things to mention.

The last big upgrade was a Banks turbo and intercooler kit. What a difference! As you can see from the chart above, the rear-wheel horsepower went from around 140 to around 240! I installed it myself over a couple of weekends (I also did a Banks header and turbo exhaust), and it’s been reliable and super-fun to drive.

Four Wheeler magazine did and install, you can read about it here.
