    I have 475k on my 07 bought new. Replace driver side manifold. Use 2010 aftermarket 3 piece catalytic converters/Y pipe. Stock Y pipe cracks driver side manifold. Will need to use 2010 O2 sensors. On EGR VALVE use lucas gas treatment. Also remove egr to intake pipe. Pipe gets blocked with carbon at airintake. Scrape out carbon ever 200k miles

      475k miles ? That is by far the record of mileage for this motor, that even puts the 4.0 in the dust.

      Hey man I’m having code p0404. egr valve. Can you go in depth a little about spraying with Lucas gas treatment? Why not carb cleaner? And I just spray from over the top? Cleaning the pipe just makes sense so I will do that. Just got my jeep and I wanna make it last. Trying to learn as much as possible

    Have 2 Wranglers, 2016 JKU 75th and 2010 JK Rubicon, gotta say I love that 3.8 much better than that 3.6 “PantyStar”. Both have 58k miles, and 2016 has already had oil filter housing, rear main seal, radiator & TStat failures. The 3.8, only and EGR valve code, that cleared on its own (was not driven for 3 weeks) when I changed the oil with a good synthetic (Pennzoil Ultra 5W20) and used Mobil gasoline.

    Not trying to be a dick, but I doubt it added any power , or throttle response. I've been building and tuning engines for decades, including several Jeep Strokers. For the coil to add anything it would require the stock one to be too weak to fire the intake charge at the correct time. Since you didn't add more compression, more cam timing, more fuel , etc , there is no reason to believe the stock coil wouldn't be enough to fire the air fuel mixture. For the throttle body to do anything it would mean the throttle body was restricting more air than the intake, cylinder head, and valves are capable of flowing. Again because you didn't put a bigger cam in it, bigger valves, do any head or port work, etc there is little reason to believe the stock throttle body was a restriction.
    Again, not trying to be a dick , I've just seen it too many times. When you, me , or anyone else spends a bunch of money on cool parts your butt dyno tells you it's making more power, when in reality it makes the same, or may even make less.... If you want to know for sure buy a draggy and test it with the stock parts and then the aftermarket coil and throttle body on it.

    • @prestonwedding
      @prestonwedding 2 года назад +2

      Kind of what I thought too. Thinking about a cold air intake and a exhaust and something to calibrate tire size that would probably be the only thing that would do anything at all.

    • @ericinMN1970
      @ericinMN1970 2 года назад +3

      What I find funny is the idea of putting the Viper TB on was to increase airflow into the engine. But then he installs a coupler to the stock OD air intake tube, thus negating any increase in air flow.

    • @Samthe1yt
      @Samthe1yt  2 года назад +3

      Gave it a bit better gas mileage from before. The only way to make it pull harder or faster you'd have to boost it or put a V8 in the thing. It's just a little V6 with little to no power with BIG tires and alot of weight. lol

      There is a video put out by RIPP I think with stuff they did to a 3.8 that got some decent gains. And you realize more gains on a manual 3.8 than an Auto. If the turbo was Cheaper they would sell a ton of them. Several friends still have these but at $5600 supercharger is too much for them.

      Usually when you're in park it won't allow you to Rev to high. I heard that the transmission throws fluid out of the tube if you do. Idk if that's even true it's probably just a safety feature incase your kid stomps on the gas playing around or something

    How do you know that the throttle body is the cause of better throttle response and not the ripp or the tune

    • @Samthe1yt
      @Samthe1yt  3 года назад +2

      I've had the tune on for a long time so thats nothing new. Ripp says the coil adds mid range power and trottle response. The trottle body is adding alot more air at wide open thrrotle. I'd say adding both probably made the notice of better response more noticeable.
