Good kill, must suck getting beat by a pickup truck:owned: I guess that guy didn't know what he was racing?


FYI, the 5.9 cherokee is the fastest NA SUV ever made, it was the only SUV to beat the saleen explorer. a guy in my RT club has one with a custom paxton on it, its SICK. he decided to move to an NA stroker so he pulled the blower off his truck and put it on his wife's cherokee. had to make all the brackets at his shop, but its still running sweet with 9psi and like 350hp to the wheels.

those 5.9's are sick....i can vouch for that too, my friend had one for a day but he ended up returning it because it turned into the biggest POS all these little things went wrong wiuth it, the whole truck shut down and wouldnt start back up, tranny slipped like a bastard....so he ended up returning it but we had fun with it that day/night anyhow :thumbsup:

Yeah its pretty quick. It's got the AWD, so whenever he launches it my stomach goes into my throat. It would annihilate my Camaro 0-30 without a doubt. But it runs out of steam from 80mph on, obviously.

they run 14.4 if you get the 3.73's 14.7 with 3.08's

The CPI trucks are faster than the TBI trucks?

oh yes, factory rated 205hp but most we're putting out about 260, thanks to a secret gm "hot-chip"

Details?
