I'll start by a quick intro!
I'm Jeff from Lake Elsinore, CA. I owned an 87 XJ awhile back and came across a deal that i could not pass up!! It was a 1997 Jeep Cherokee for $1500. It had a k&n intake, roof rack with lights, HID Headlights with glass housings, Full stereo and brand new kicker speakers, Brand new 33" tires, Brand new Borla headers, SYE, New alternator, 4" lift with sway bar disconnects and i am sure i missed some!
On with the my question. I built a 4.6 stroker for it and It's bored over 30K. It has brand new Venom 24lb injectors and a map adjuster. I have a 2.5" 10 series flowmaster muffler
The full stroker costed me $2081.....Yes...$2081!! I got the hook ups lol
My Question: Have i done everything i need to do to get it's full performance?

Is there anything that i should have done that i have not done? We are still working out the little bugs! It seems to be running a little rich because it feels like it loads up with gas sometimes and it sputters. It also sounds like the timing gets out of whack when i am going 70+mph on the freeway. We have 5 volts over factory in the MAP adjuster so if i pull voltage out it's pretty much going to take it back to factory.
Any insight guys?
Should i have had the computer flashed?
I think if i bore the throttle body and get a high flow cat, that will benefit me well.
Any thoughts or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks guys!
