    Still a ways to go... And we HATE back tracking. Trying to get it right the first time. No real mechanics here either just guys with a little tech knowledge carefully reading the instructions.

    Crossing 7 working hours

    IMPOTRANT- the black hose my finger is on runs to the magnuson air cooler in the trucks nose, there is more than one route to run it thru, make sure it's not kinked. Its dark but my finger is basicly at 12 o'clock in the picture.

    Wiring her up!! Feels like the home stretch!! This is the fuse center and relay for the pump. Wires run to pump, battery, ground, and we are drilling the hole for the trigger to run to sweet pea's fuse center.

    This install is going faster than I can post. Full intake is back in. Look stock? It is the stock intake. This means you can go with an after market induction system or go with a snorkel

    DONE!! Right about 9 hours and we stopped half way to eat. There were no surprises and I posted it all in real time so you can look at the speed we went from the posts. We started at 10am and finished around 7pm.

    Important note- we've never installed anything like this before. We had no idea what to expect. The time we took is what you can expect.

    Hey guys, when I noted this step. I stated that one of the wires from the relay and fuse center went to the battery. This is incorrect. The red wire im referring to in this post goes to the jeeps factory fuse center. Not the battery.

    Seat of the pants Dyno -

    Ok, here's my impressions.

    First, you know its different right away. The sound is not as crazy as I expected. Its more subdued, So right now i'd classify Sweet Pea as a sleeper.

    She will roll up with her fully stock exterior, then smoke you.

    I think that as soon as you add an aftermarket intake like AFE's unit, you will here the more pronounced SHRIEK. I need to see if I can get my hands on one of those and take another sound byte.

    Driving-

    The power is linear and seemless. More of a freight train feeling early in the RPM band. The power delivery is well planned and there is no burst of power anywhere in the curve.

    The torque is lurking under your gas pedal all the time. Nudge the throttle in any gear and you'll know its not stock.

    The pentastar loves the extra air getting forced in.
