If I remember correctly, the rate limiting step with the diesel is engine cooling. One of the engineers was discussing how they tweaked the grill to maximize cooling yet wanted to keep the 7 slat Jeep look. I wonder if any aftermarket companies will offer a different grill? Would it even be possible? I’d give up the slats for optimized cooling/horsepower.

Next time you are at a dealership look closely at a Max Tow grille vs any other JT. They are Very Different.

I don't know if they have it yet for the JL or JT but the Rugged Ridge Spartan grille has no slots at all. It's just wide open. That would certainly help.
