Edge Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 We have a greyhound event that entire weekend. HOWEVER - if someone will take care of Nigel for me, I'm in. Hey Jim, Did you find someone to take Nigel to the tune :questionmark: I would love to help but taking time off on Friday would be tough and I have a charity sporting clay event most of the day on Saturday. Likewise, I would like to help you Jim... but I can't help on Friday. If you manage to get the last Saturday slot (that just opened up today), I may be able to take Nigel for you!

carman63 Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 Hey Jim, Did you find someone to take Nigel to the tune :questionmark: I'll leave it overnight. I'd just prefer having a witness. Filming the dyno would be cool, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carman63 Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 Dan, Since I have to leave my car, fit me in around others as you see fit. If there's any chance I can hang around, it would be the earliest time slot. I hope to have a definitive answer tomorrow. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isadinho Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 Since you have a 1st Gen, you'll probably want a demo from another 1st Gen. I'll be happy to do that for you. many thanks, and yeah I'm stock until around mid june, then i'll drop some coin into it! 06' MCS Chilli Red...

RyanMBlue Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 Edit: Would love to do this, however, I have a new CAI coming in a couple weeks, and am close to pulling the trigger on a 15% pulley, so it would not be a good idea to pay for a tune now just to throw it way off with a CAI and pulley update. Next time around! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian0758 Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 Well my tune is done and I am very pleased with the results :rock: As a comparison to other 1st Gens, I have the 15% pulley, the JCW intake and the JCW exhaust. My baseline run was 179.77 whp and 162.21 torque. After Jan's magic my final totals were 192.08 whp and 163.29 torque. The car now pulls much harder and is pretty smooth :top: Well worth the money. 2012 Jeep Rubicon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A gain of over 12hp, yet only a gain of 1 lb/ft torque? That's a strange set of numbers - glad you are happy though!

Brian0758 Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) On the 4th run the figures were 190.52 whp and 167.42 torque. Jan said the 5th run was just after it and it was running much warmer. Not being a total engine geek I am not sure why the torque gain wasn't more.

Claymore Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Wow! Almost 40 hp and almost 50 torque? Thats pretty amazing... Yup! My jaw hit the floor when I saw the graph on the second run. Alas, all I got was a diagnosis of a gasket leak somewhere around the supercharger. Jan couldn't figure out why I was still running lean with the 380 injectors until we got a can of brake fluid out and started looking for a leak. Sure enough...:banghead: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmcveay Posted May 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Jim - I haven't been able to confirm this but from what I've read, the JCW engines actually have a lower compression ratio than the "S" but a slightly larger (internally) turbo. That allows the JCW to make more boost pressure and it's "safer". I have read posts from folks who have put a JCW turbo on an "S" since it's a direct swap externally and with a re-tuned ECU, they put down some great numbers. Alta is advertising an upgraded turbo, it's an OEM housing with a larger, forged aluminum wheel and it gives more boost over a longer curve than the "S" or JCW turbo. Nothing firm on the price yet though. I'm pretty sure Jan has seen enough 2nd Gen JCW's to have it down and since you got your tune on the dyno, he was able to tweak it so you get the best there is for the set up. 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon "Homer" 2012 MB/CR JCW R55 "Merlin" Sold 2009 LB/LB R56 "Archie" Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
