My Jeep Grand Cherokee

I took my Jeep to ATCO last night to see what it would run. All I have is a FIPK K&N Intake, a Flowmaster 40 Series muffler and Mopar Wires...oh yea and it's the 5.2L V-8. Out of my three runs, my best time was 15.655 at 89 MPH. I was shocked, i was expecting 16's. Anyway....thats all..peace.

You didn't know what you had there, eh? Just imagine if you had the 5.9L V-8. I think those are good for mid-low 15's stock in the 1/4.

My friends mom used to have the 5.9L V-8...we nicknamed that car "*****". I never raced it with my IROC, but at the time it was a completely stock LG-4 so it would have taken me.

My friend used to beat the crap out of it though. He'd roll the thing backwards, then throw it in drive, floor it, and actually spin the tires. No wonder his parents were always getting tranny work done to it.

wow...that cant be good for the car!!! yea, i have heard of guys through North American Grand Cherokee Assoc. that the 5.9 with intake and a less restrictive exhaust, maybe a chip and of course no spare will run high mid to high 14's. Again, not to shabby for a soccer mom truck
