Just googled the Supercharger part number YT1500R. It comes up with a price in US $1695. I'd guess you need to add about $1000 for bits and pieces and you are up around $3K. Then add some labour.

Not bad for around an additional 50Kw to the wheels (on 31's). Considering the standard TJ came out with 140 - odd Kw on standard rubber.

You wouldn't get the fitting problems you'd get trying to shoe-horn a V8.

They're just down the road from me.... where did that spare $3k get to..... did it fall down the back of the couch?

Benny , very cost effective over a v8 conversion. a full intercooled kit is around $ 6000 plus a tune. Under normal driving conditions im retaining the same n/a fuel economy, unless you want to enjoy the 65% gain in power and torque.

Cheers Geoff,

fits with no modifications under the bonnet and we do the full install and tune in 1 day. retains original throttle body and cable set up.
