Aussie Stroker
Posted: August 18th, 2013, 9:53 pm
G'day guys and girls,
I've been thinking about getting more get up and go outta my TJ for awhile now, I've read quite a bit, especially on the different options of stroker level avaliable, and I've come to a conclusion as to what I want to hit.
My goal, is 400HP minimum at the wheels.
I'm looking at building a stroker, and chucking a charger ontop (Magnum Powers have a charger kit designed for the TJ, they reckon it can run at 20PSI)
So on that note, I was hoping you guys and girls could steer me in the right directions in terms of parts to handle the forces I'm looking at. (There's a potential to bolt in a Nitrous system, for those 'I Feel The Need... The Need For Speed' moments)
I've read through countless build options, and I figure where best to come than the experts.
I'd love to be able to walk into a shop here, and get them to help out, but Jeeps really aren't a big thing in Australia, and most mechanics I've seen about general work on the Jeep, their eyes gloss over in confusion... So I can't imagine what talking to them about engine work would be like..
That, ontop of having to import my parts from the US, I'd like to have a set define list of parts, to ensure my build goes smoothly, painlessly as possible, and without taking 18 months...
