I didn't see anything wrong with his shifting. There not exactly smooth engagements, plus the mounts are sloppy, the suspension is soft etc etc.

That was awesome. I believe if it wasn't for the turbo jeep having to be a manual, it would be a little quicker or maybe right next to the supercharged jeep.

I agree! Both moved their weight quite well!

The turbo wrangler shifted fine. Extremely soft suspension, stock motor mounts, and almost 1 foot of shift throw mixed together with the power increase doesn’t equate to smooth shifts under full throttle. Personally I’m curious to see how this would do if the auto had the turbo for less boost loss between gears and the manual with the s/c

What's the story with the Alpha tablet? How did you mount it?

Sprintex is the best right off the bottom not a race performance kit but enough to pep up the 3.8 to have enough power to pull the jeep in 6th gear down the highway. Stock 3.8 is almost junk when new.

Despite being an old video. For a Jeep wrangler the blower is always the best option. You’ll never need top end, 100+mph, especially lifted but passing cars on the interstate and merging on a highway needs instant torque and power , supercharger wins for this case

How did you install the display

If I didn’t have 40s and had those stock tires I might have done that. Went with a TL1 6.2

This video just proves to me that the super charger is better for 4 wheeling.

Neither are good for off road. Rarely are you ever at an RPM high enough to spool a turbo or get the torque set by a blower.

@ElementalGarageandGaming

You're never really going to need either for off-roading anyways. You get all the power you need from torque multiplication via the transfer case/crawl ratios.

I disagree It is all situational If you have ever done any steep hillclimbing, sometimes the low gear lacks the rolling speed. And a higher gear lacks the power and torque. I have often wished for more power offroad in my 06 rubicon. I think this would help.

How do you think the sprintex would have faired against the prodigy if it was also a 6 speed manual? Im torn between buying a sprintex or a prodigy kit. The price difference is what is making this decision so hard.

Wade Richmire I'm sure the prodigy would've still pulled much harder due to the comparable shifting speed. It's just a higher hp producing kit. On the other hand the sprintex is great off road.

normanmakaio But the 3.6 puts out plenty of power for off-road, even with 37s. You should check out @LiteBrite and their Wrangler they chose to turbo charge rather than super charge. The turbo just makes daily driving and commuting so much nicer and you’re right, the power ban isn’t for low rpm off-roading, it’s to improve the overall versatility of the Jeep. Also boosting MPG and turbos keep their boost at higher altitudes. Good for us Colorado people.

@@jackrotter9434 Idk.. maybe if your racing a jk turbo is the way to go. I got x2 people in my neighborhood one is a turbo one is sc. To get on to the main road it's a hill.. when I see the sc guy pull out and up he gets up to traffic speed quicker then the guy with the turbo.. I mean you can hear the lug or lag of the turbo before it spools and takes off..pretty sure the turbo guy has to accelerate harder off the line to get that turbo to spool and make power..at least it sure sounds and looks like that from my home...I do know they raced and like this video the sc took off and left the turbo one behind,but eventually turbo guy caught up and passed.
