Bro you have the old plenum. Ten bucks says with the rams head plenum from the WJs or 99+ XJs it would stop. The 62mm and rams plenum are 2/3 of the upgrades. The third is porting the head to match the rams head plenum opening. Also adding the WJ expansion chamber above the T.B helps flow along with its flattish hose. I am 3D printing factory XJ airbox lids that fit to the WJ oval tube. Coming soon!

@thehatefull1761 5 месяцев назад

Still not going to get no power though the restrictions going to be the valve you need a bigger intake valve to allow more air in so either going to need head work done or a new cam that raises the lift and duration of the intake valve opening to allow more are other than that the only way to get more air into that engine is by forced air induction or colder air because cold air is more oxygen dense once you get more errands and you're going to need more displacement though you can only cram so much air in a given space so then you're going to be looking at either boring it out or stroking it. Then you're going to need more fuel so that you can mix with more are so that means bigger injectors then you'll get more power

I have a 4cyl. YJ and hot a 62mm throttle body from EBay. Touching the disconnected battery cables together to clear the computer works. You have to make sure to use the 4cylinder tps sensor and iac valve. Luckily they transfer perfectly. You have to remember to plug them back in! My original throttle body was filthy. The new one is obviously clean. The good thing is that it runs great. I highly recommend buying a new 62mm throttle body for the 4cylinder engines out there. I actually got better mileage and it runs much better.

I have heard it helps the 2.5 more than the 4.0

@thehatefull1761 5 месяцев назад

No it doesn't you're not getting more power by doing that to the 2.5 the throttle body intake runners and the exhaust are over engineer to allow more are in than the engine needs the restriction is going to be the intake valve without bigger intake valves or a cam to increase lifter duration you're not going to get more air into the engine unless you're Force air induction or cold air because cold air is more oxygen than then you need more displacement to hold more of the air in the fuel which means you're going to have to get bored out block with bigger Pistons or stroke it then you're going to need bigger fuel injectors because once you get more are you need more fuel then you will get power

@jaymehm3544 2 года назад

Do you think the whistle might be coming from the really short air intake tube and cone filter. I know you can get a whistle when you change to those filters. Live watching the videos! The timing was funning with Muddy Beard also doing a throttle body video this week.

@FlawedOffroad 2 года назад

no it was like that when I had the stock airbox. The only reason I’m running this crappy tube is the stock airbox no longer fits with my upgraded brake booster/master

@FlawedOffroad 2 года назад

Yeah I got a laugh out of that too. I was trying to make a different video but I couldn’t finish it in time so it should be next week.

@thehatefull1761 5 месяцев назад

If you're looking for a little bit more power you need to cut the catalytic converter off to decrease some of the back pressure it won't be a huge difference but it'll be a little other than that moving the intake air temperature sensor to the actual breather box seems to keep the engine running better longer once the intake gets hot from the exhaust underneath it the temp on the IAT starts to read higher than the are actually coming in also another thing that helps a little bit is moving your map sensor off of the throttle body and replacing it on the frame somewhere where it's not shaking from the engine you're not going to see any huge gains but it does make it drive a little bit better and you do pick up a small amount of power

@FlawedOffroad 5 месяцев назад

@MegaMarclar 2 года назад

that is sort of a common thing with all large bore TB's. has to do with the velocity not being as high with the higher flow rate. I think the 'Horse shoe' intake manifold is a much better upgrade than the TB. so we can math this out. a 4liter (244 CID) at 6000 rpm, will pass about 425 CFM... 244x6000/3456=425. A 60mm TB will flow in the 600 CFM range. so thats an extra 175 ish cfm.. that drops the intake air velocity which causes the 'whistle'... I'd rather have a stock TB with a horse shoe manifold.

@FlawedOffroad 2 года назад

Is that the 2001+ xj/tj one?

@MegaMarclar 2 года назад

@@FlawedOffroad I think it was 99 through 06 for pretty much any 4 l. I think It increases flow by like 3% or something but the different shaped runners are more efficient and it also helps dissipate the exhaust manifold heat a little bit better than the straight runner log style intake. I think ideally finding a 4 l HO head with the horseshoe intake would be the ideal setup.

@alexirodriguez9121 Год назад

I upgraded to bored 62mm on my 96 4.0 and ran it for years. Then, I reinstalled the stock tb which narrows down to 56mm based on what I've read on the internet, and I actually gained power. Not as touchy response wise, but the torque is much better and doesn't fall on it's face when you give it sudden wide open throttle from slow speeds. I think that neck down below the throttle flap helps to speed up the air and guide the air more smoothly into the runners instead of the air just slamming down into the manifold and creating turbulence. My jeep has a gibson header, high flow cat and catback, horseshoe intake, and bosch 4 hole injectors. Also noticed that my voltage is a bit higher too since the air is moving by the MAP sensor hole more quickly now (gives it a better "engine load" reading).

@MegaMarclar Год назад

@@alexirodriguez9121 yep you hit the nail right on the head. If you're building full-blown race car then obviously the bigger the hole the better. But when it comes to efficiency and low end power you want that high velocity airflow. Same principle applies to putting a thousand CFM carburetor on a 5 L engine It just drowns it out. And unless it's spinning 8,000 RPMs it really won't make a bit of difference at all.

@downnoutdubin Год назад

The whistle is from the idle control port. Moto trend says to make a couple vertical notches at the top of the port. I guess that mixes the air around enough by the port to not create a whistle. I'm thinking about doing this to mine soon.

@FlawedOffroad Год назад

Ive had several comments about this, One of these times i will look into it

@FlawedOffroad Год назад

Im making a follow up to this, I tried rounding all the sharp edges on the ports and made a few notches but it didnt help. I cant find a picture online of how deep people are saying to make them, do you have a source?

@MalarkeyTaylor 2 года назад

I have run multiple 62mm TB and never had a whistle. However I on the 98- intake manifold I combined with a air raid tb spacer. and with the 99+ style intake I ran direct on the intake manifold. I did at one point swap a 96 motor out to have the 99 intake and the bored throttle body. and it may have just been the placebo effect, but that with a 2.75" full length exhaust really seemed to make that engine come alive. Sucks that you've had those issues with it... if you're up for one more go at it try putting a TB spacer in it like an air raid or something... might just be snake oil, but it also might solve the whistle for you.

@FlawedOffroad 2 года назад

I’ve always thought spacers on Jeep to be snake oil, it was different back in the day with carburetors where it was giving the fuel more time to atomize. I didn’t think about it as potentially correcting the whistle though

@Skulljeep00 2 года назад

Throttle spacers actually increase plenum volume which in turn provides more low end torque. It's common to swap intakes to get more volume. TB spacers aren't much, but DO help with that.

@TheBandit7613 2 года назад

My 4.0 is NOT a turd. I have a 0 to 60 video posted. The mods you have done I would not do. Your cold air intake is actually a very HOT air intake. The engine is drawing in hot air from the rear of the engine! Stock, it draws cold air behind the left headlight. Your PCV is inop. And that's just the first 15 seconds I looked at your engine. If you live near me, I'm willing to help you get the most from your 4.0. The throttle body won't help (probably loses a few HP) There are gains to be had on the exhaust side.

@FlawedOffroad 2 года назад

I had to remove the stock airbox due to the aftermarket brake booster/master is too long. That crappy intake was the fastest way to get running. I don’t plumb the ccv to the fresh air intake because it pukes oil anyway. It has suction at idle but on the freeway the metered hole at the rear can’t keep up with the blowby and it pukes. Thus the little mini filter still lets air in when at lower rpm’s and catches oil drips when it starts puking. I could spend 20 minutes explaining it all and ppl would just fast forward anyway and ask the same questions haha

@TheBandit7613 2 года назад

@@FlawedOffroad Haha! I have done a few different 4.0 "builds" Some things work ok, some lose power and most do nothing at all. I did find some mild gains by custom building my own exhaust. There are a few HP to be had there. I didn't know about your master, YJ brakes were weak when they were new. I got great results from using drilled, slotted rotors and a performance pair of pads.

I have full width axles the stock brakes werent cutting it so I have an aftermarket booster/master thats sized for my brakes and it works so much better. but its long and forced me to gut the airbox. Im still using the cheap intake tube where its at, at least its not on the exhaust side. Thought about porting it into the cowl but havent yet. Im going to attempt to grind a little off the IAC port, I must have 10 comments on here from people saying that is what whistles. So its likely new video is incoming

@TheBandit7613 Год назад

@@FlawedOffroad Jeep used a weak booster, for sure. I have had to two leg stop a couple times. Originally, the YJ came with brakes that are hardly adequate for 27" tires. There's a Jeep site I'm going to try to find again for you. They make 10 or 15 changes to their YJ and dyno it after each change they make. Some bolt on performance parts would LOSE several horsepower. The mod that made the biggest difference for me was a custom built exhaust. The YJ came with a restrictive exhaust, the TJ is even worse. I'll watch for your new video and I'll try to find that Jeep website for you.

@FlawedOffroad Год назад

@@TheBandit7613 I have one of the headers with the baffles and then I use the TJ downpipe which uses a larger diameter exhaust than what the yj one was. I have a high flow cat but then I think it’s mostly factory behind that so it probably necks back down to whatever size the YJ came with. I am running a thrush turbo welded muffler which sounds pretty good but it’s a factory tailpipe. At one point I was running the four hole injectors which I thought gave me better throttle response but I put the factory ones back in for some reason trying to diagnose something a long time ago. That wasn’t it and I’ve been meaning to switch back to them because I felt they made a difference

@adambatchelder4121 8 месяцев назад

Any one small mod alone is not going to make a big difference on it own. Now if you do a real cold air, a bigger throttle body, cam , port head , injectors, headers and exhaust, maybe some ignition and fuel tuning. All the sudden the sum of mods has made a big deference.

@FlawedOffroad 8 месяцев назад

@thehatefull1761 5 месяцев назад

This is correct you're never going to get much power out of these until you can force more are and more fuel into the engine and you have to have the valves to do it the cam to give you the lift and duration and a displacement to hold it all not to mention the fuel to add to the air

The 4.0 and 2.5 throttle body and intake and exhaust are over engineered there is no air restriction you are never going to see any performance gains by boring these out any bigger you have to get bigger valves in the head to allow more air in the engine because that's where your restriction is going to be the size of the valve how long it opens and how far it opens the only way to get past this is either with a new cam or bigger valves or forced air induction

I'm sharing here. Most things don't make much difference. Some help a little and a couple help a bit more. Spark Plugs: YJ's are picky about plugs. Avoid gimmick plugs. Use plain old Champion Copper Plugs every 30K. No Iridium, no platinum. YJ's have a restrictive exhaust and can benefit from exhaust work. Don't bother with bigger throttle bodies. Nothing there. Performance intakes: Nothing there. The stock intake provides all the air a stock 4.0 can use. Stroker kit. Lot's to be had there. Under hood supercharger kit. Yes, there are moderate to big gains.
