5.2 ZJ Hughes Air Gap Intake & Big Gulp TB Dual Exhaust Cam 

It is

The dakotas got both of yall beat. I just pulled a hughes off a ram. It's a pita because of the cowl.

I hot rodded a 2.6 Mitsubishi in the early 90s

Just did my 98 ZJ 5.9 with an ax15 swap. Went with toyota internals to beef it up a bit.

Jarrod Padilla Definitely false, although gains will be very minimal. You're increasing flow in the middle, basically, but without CAI and a free flowing exhaust, you're still not really helping. gives you more top end, but you need those other two at the very least, and then DEFINITELY want an SCT or custom tune to pull it all together, otherwise the computer tries to compensate for the flow to stay as close to stock as it can. Mine had CAI and headers+ full exhaust without much of any noticeable gain except sound... then about 2 months ago put an SCT 91 octane tune on it and BAM, 0-60 dropped almost 2 whole seconds! Your stock computer tune will really hold you back. Definitely get a tune when you add this and you will not be disappointed!

Snowflakes in a EV

Just did full suspension and truss on my 98 5.9 ZJ and i decided to keep the stock Nv249 transfer. Just opened it up and went through it and deep cleaned it and painted. Swapped out the 46RE with an ax15 with toyota internals. Gonna go with 4.10 axle gears for now since i already have the front gear set and lunchbox locker in rear with the gear upgrade. On 35" BFG KO2 right now but im considering some 37" rubbers

DGmotors NYS wanting to get more power out of my 5.2 mag would the bigger intake help orrr?

It has a BG Performance flashed PCM with specs to my build. I run 93 Octane

Yes you can without having to swap. just find a t-case from a 93-95 ZJ and you should be good. (96-98 can be made to work but requires more work)

Old comment, I know.. but I'd add yourself to the ZJ Grand Cherokee Owners Group on Facebook. We're 15k members strong, there's bound to be a few people that have one they'll give up, at a decent price too. And as long as you aren't Mr. Obvious or Mr. Troll on every post, we always love getting new members and rigs in, be it lifted, lowered, stock, built, swapped, chopped.. don't matter, we don't judge. Lol

Hit up kolak hes the man kolak@aol.com

On the Brink Outdoors get a custom tune and you're good.

Carb swap it and you won't have to worry bout all that computer bs

Jason Davis . 2000 dollars?are you smoking meth?you obviously have no clue what you are talking about.

Those heads are are 350 each.how is that 2000? I know what I'm talking about. Over 15 years of experience 10 years at the dodge dealer and the other 5 has been building race engines.so I know what I'm talking about.you not so much

350 for iron ram heads with ss valves.and you cant forge cast iron.so stay in your over priced world

It's actually called a blast furnace not a forge.

Shut up kid do research before you try to argue with a grown man.

If you go high lift short duration, you better be doing valves and springs too, because you'll either snap a spring, obliterate the ends of any pushrods you install, or marry a valve to a piston. And why on earth would you carb swap from a MPI, electronically controlled trans system? You do know the PCM relies on the TPS, MAP sensor and IAT sensor to help set a lot of functions, like ignition timing, shift points and line pressure, overdrive and converter lockup.. etc, and if you remove those things (you wouldn't be able to run any of them on a carb and carb intake), you're just going to end up dumping a ton of money into making your OBDII Mopar run correctly, and make less power and be less efficient all at the same time! Oh, and good luck finding a fuel pump that will fit into the sending unit that won't blow out every seal on that carb as well.

Yep they're all magnums

just make sure you get the appropriate parts for your motor year, there are some minor differences between certain years

nothing on video officially cause my 0-60 video was with not so good shifting

Rob bigemon you don't HAVE to, but your computer will do it's best to compensate for the manifold and keep you nearly close to stock power. all you'll really get is low throttle improvement/mpg and cooler sound. Until you actually get a tune (or SCT programmer with the tunes on it), you won't be getting nearly the gains. I just added a tune 2 months ago to mine, which has with headers, full exhaust and CAI, which got almost no noticeable power gains at all from them... until I installed the 91 octane tune! BAM!!! 0-60 improved by almost 2 whole seconds, shifts at 5000-5100 rpm instead of 4400rpm. Really pulled it all together! So no, you don't HAVE to have a tune, but yes, you WANT to have that tune! Also, once you have a better flowing manifold, the tune can be made even slightly more aggressive. I have the more aggressive tune waiting in my email inbox until I get my M1 intake manifold & 53mm throttle body installed, and then I'll really start pickin up some power. Best if you also install either a small "RV" cam or at least 1.7-1.72 ratio rocker arms to provide more valve lift to take advantage of that flow capability, otherwise you might lose a little down low.

JoeIsCrazyWillman Hollywood is that you?

+Medicated TV The PCV has never been disconnected

+DGmotors NYS you realise that vacuum line from ur valve cover to the intake is there for a reason right?

+DGmotors NYS im sorry you say you got a cam and shit but my stock 5.9 with msd ignition and full exhaust I would put truck lengths on you

the pvc is hooked up. its on the passenger side.

hey you got a number so I can ask you wuestions about the hughes intake

superbrightleds . com

what model light bulb did you purchase?

I believe they are 194s check the vehicle bulb finder

MrJoehawkin2007 Make sure you get an SCT or custom tune. stock computer will try to compensate and stay as close to stock as possible. It will run without the tune, but will be drastically less of a gain.

MrJoehawkin2007 damn they are 359 right now

commanderwhite12 The Hughes intake is good, but they run $600 for the kit.

commanderwhite12 There's still Mopar M1 2bbl & M1 4bbl intakes for sale on the web. Not from regular sites, but either eBay sellers, or else on Facebook under a set of closed groups (somebody you're friends with has to add you) there's a guy named Rolf who sells the manifolds, adaptor plates, billet fuel rails, and 52-53mm ported stock throttle bodies. Fantastic work. M1 2bbl is superior to the Hughes by a little bit, tho out of production so what you'll find will likely be used. The 4bbl is a little better for bigger builds, but still similar gains on lighter builds, and he supplies a 2bbl adaptor plate to use the stock 2bbl throttle body, and then when the time is right for big power, switch to a 4bbl throttle body and simply remove the adaptor plate and bam, more flow for those huge cams, forced induction, or nitrous

Wish I still knew how to get in contact with Rolf. He's gone from the 5.2 and 5.9 performance group, all of the ZJ Grand Cherokee groups, and now I can't find a 2 bbl or 4 bbl M1 anywhere for under $1000, which I refuse to pay for an intake that's going to put down half the gains of what a cam, cheap mid-length headers and a tuner would do for the same price combined. The performance difference is way too marginal to deal with people who act like their M1 is a solid block of gold, when I can order a AirGap for $600 to my front door. Really would prefer an M1 in either variation for my R/T build over the winter though, no doubt.. but for me the price and performance differences aren't worthwhile, and them all being used, you never know what condition it may come to you in. :/

@Ricardo Alcaraz people are actually happier with the improved gas mileage over the increased power with the Hughes intake manifold.

@Ricardo Alcaraz *facepalm* just read about it on their website

@Ricardo Alcaraz ima pray for you 🙏 🤦‍♂️

So you're going to sit here and try to lie and tell everyone you're a mechanic, but call tube headers "straight pipe headers", say a straight pipe exhaust and a fucking CAI will give you more power when in reality, all you're doing is moving the peak of the powerband to the top of the curve, and killing more bottom end torque than you're making top end HP? You can't really be THAT stupid, even if you've never touched a wrench, can you? Yes, with an upgraded intake plenum (leave the fucking air filter alone, it's bringing in more flow and cooler air than your hot air intake ever would), headers and a more free-flowing exhaust you will pick up power AND fuel economy, usually around 15%. Then if you throw a cam, valve springs and rocker arms and a tune at it, you're making a good bit more power, and maybe upwards of 5-6 MPG better economy. The factory TUNING for emissions is what kills the power and oddly enough, also the fuel economy in a vehicle. Not so much a hot air intake, tube headers and a straight pipe. You are right, that's a good way to improve your 0-60 time by one tenth of a second and drop your fuel economy a few miles to the gallon. FOH with your stupid lying ass. Also, you really slapped yourself in the face with that "liberals" comment, because I guarantee the bullshit you're spewing came from another dipshit on the internet. Kinda funny how your condescended and played yourself all in one there lmao.

@Ricardo Alcaraz Does this mean that you imply that you're _NOT_ a "liberal's (lol)? I, sir, am a mechanic. You, sir, are not making a very good case for your claims of being one. Also, please refrain from making an ass of yourself throwing the word "liberal's" (yes, you mispunctuated it as well) when you are in fact the one displaying yourself in a manner consistent with those who actually deserve to have that particular slant thrown at them. I'm sure this comment will trigger you so let it fly, brother, let us have some more laughs!

"5.2 ZJ Hughes Air Gap Intake & Big Gulp TB Dual Exhaust Cam" seriously? You HAD to have read the title of the video before you clicked on it, which lists that is has an Air Gap, Big Gulp, dual exhaust (true dual, and nobody does that on a ZJ with the major PITA that is without running shorties at least, and I happen to know the owner and yes, it does have mid-length headers) and last, cam. The title literally had the answer to your questions, and I'm just wondering how you missed it entirely.

Cam Crysler your full of shit it was fucking to the floor struggling.we all seen it

Not true. My ZJ kicks down with medium throttle. At WOT it kicks down way more than what he showed in the video.

buddy robinson I am interested in the M1 please let me know
