I love the Stage I, but if I somehow get used to this power, can I upgrade to a Stage II?
Can I add an aftermarket exhaust to my Stage I without screwing up the tuning?
I also put metal cloak upper control arms on so I could set caster. Steering is fantastic. and take off is just like stock. It's a very pleasant truck to drive.
When I first purchased Kassandra I put a RC 2.5" spacer lift on the front and Rusty's spacer on the rear. There are more pics and a description of the lift I pieced together in my build thread. There were not many options I liked when I built it. And yes, Tazer mini.
It's 100% cafe-related. I remember reading a while back that the designers fully expected nearly everyone to replace the wheels and tires with 35's right off the start.
So a while back I did some testing with the Tazer JL, then again today. 3 runs, flat ground same locations both times.

True
I believe the OEM fox shocks are way too soft for these trucks. Upgrades are planned for the future.
I've had my eye on the Fox factory race series 2.5 remote reservoir with DSC. I could increase low-speed compression valving and remove most of the lifting. It's not a huge deal, it's an...
The Install is complete and the finishing touches have been applied. The Jeep drives great. It is smooth and fast. The SC is silent except for a slight whine you can hear driving next to walls and parked cars, but even then you have to listen for it. Acceleration is now effortless, shifting is...
A lot of people seem concerned about having to cut a part of the factory airbox off to make room for the charge tube. It was very easy to fabricate a steel plate to cover the hole. A few screws, some black silicone, and some spray paint, and it's all sealed up again.
Things are coming along nicely. This is the second one of these we have installed and there have been changes. The AC condenser now gets moved back about an inch closer to the radiator, freeing up a ton of room for the charge tubes. The directions say you can trim the condenser mounting tabs...
It's starting to come back together. The alternator gets mounted lower, just above the drive side upper control arm. A machined aluminum bracket hold the supercharger and alternator in place. The guys at Hamburgers really did their work well... some of the tolerances between moving components...
Is getting real now
The intake must come off to access the fuel rail for bigger injectors and colder plugs. A few other components like intake o rings have to be upgraded to deal with intake pressure
That's one of the beauties of the hamburger kit... It's near silent. The sc whine may be cool to show off with at Starbucks, but it get old to live with.
You may now continue your sexist jokes, because God help me if I hear "amen and a women" ever again
