Best 0-60 for me [Archive] - JeepGarage.Org

Well this morning I headed out to my favorite fishing spot, that also happens to have a flat stretch of strait away and the speed liimit is 50mph. It was 5:45 in the morning so there was NO traffic. It was nice to finally have some cool temps, 47 degrees. Now i've tested my 0-60 with superchips many many times on this same stretch and was consistenly 7.2-7.4. This morning though was the first time it was actually below 50 degrees. Yesterday i had the oil changed, which i know does nothing for performance, but i also had the differential fluid changed. The tech at the shop said the oil was really bad, black and had some metal shavings in it, never been done before. Right away i could feel some difference when i left the shop, maybe in my head, but i don't think so. Before the fluid change, it kind of bogged off the line a little, doesn't do it now. Well anyways here's what i ran this morning

0-40...3.54
0-50...5.04
0-60...6.84!

I know some will say superchips is inaccurate, or call bs on my 4.7 running sub 7 second 0-60 with just the programmer, exhaust, and intake, but i know it's legit. It made up for the fact that i only caught one little smallie.

I am positive, scott is NOT shaking in his boots. He's still got me by more than a second, and it's not even tuned right. Thanks guys, it's no hemi, but it's definently faster than the day i bought it!

Glad to hear ya happy! The wheelskins is what gave you the extra boost!:cool::thumbsup:

Mine does 4.2-4.6 Sec on 60-75 degree weather , but i pulled a 3.9 once on a 50 degree weather . G-TECHPRO-SS is the tool i use . I used to pull lower numbers with Dashhawk which was exaggerating numbers :eek:

pjs1965

10-09-2009, 08:51 PM

I always hear srt8's 0-60 in under 5 in all tractions, does anyone with one know exactly how far under? like 4.8? I know with all my mods i've run straight up with a couple stock ones, not that theres really many stock-ish parts on an srt8

Completely stock: my best is 4.6 sec. On most days 4.8 is normal. I've pulled a 4.9 on a wet street (not raining at the time). And yeah, I've had the occasional 5+ 0-60 on hot summer days.

I've seen 3.7 sec 0-60 on some modded SRT8s (there's a few vids on YouTube of this). I'm sure Mike can attest to high 3s too. Oh and don't ask Junior what he's running -- he's confessed to a 3.7 sec 0-60 with 4 people in his.

Robert Palmer

With your mods, I would say high 6's, low 7's.

Mid-high 5's I would say. Thats just a guess but it makes sense with my track times.

Robert Palmer

10-11-2009, 04:08 PM

Please take no offense when I say this but a Jet Chip is a waste of 300 bucks.

The PCM re-learns the stock form after a while.

Also you got heavier rims and bigger tires. They will slow you down.

KidFresh5.7

10-11-2009, 04:12 PM

Then dont take offense when i say i think i'm right there with you if not looking at you in the rear view. The bigger wheels put it down infinitely better than stock, the chip seems to work, all the suspension helps, I don't know that I'd come anywhere close to a stock low 7's with all the shit ive done

Alright but I will guarantee you, with those mods you will be running in the 14.8 and higher range.

Please dont think its just my opinion and that I am saying my 5.7L Jeep, is the fastest.

I hope others come in here and state theirs.

Get some headers and a Flyin Ryan ported throttle body. The headers wont do anything for your 0-60 but your mid and top end. The tb should be noticable throughout.

Oh and BTW Tman (Jeremy) has a 08 5.7 with a AirAid, Magnaflow exhaust and a CMR tune, and his is still .5-.7 slower than me.

Got a real 0-60 today at the track using the Gtech ,look at the numbers .

I do my testing with the DashHawk and Trinity. The Trinity generally runs a bit slower, which is weird since they both read from the same CAN Bus. Can't say for sure which is more accurate.

I also dont think thats out of line with giving the srt8 a car with 90 more hp stock and 30lb/ft of torque 2.5 seconds off a 60 time! thats quite a slowdown so i dont think my 7.1 is too low.

06HemiLtd

10-12-2009, 06:31 AM

this is more like 0-80 but i figured i'd post it. http://s923.photobucket.com/albums/ad72/stevegoff/?action=view&current=0-80.flv i was leaving my son's preschool so i couldn't get on it too much. i love the sound of the hemi though

Robert Palmer

10-12-2009, 08:47 AM

I'm not saying its as fast as you, but i highly doubt your a second and a half faster to 60, and you all seem to be missing my main point, i dont care what you run, im saying from everything ive seen 7.1 is stock on a 5.7l hemi jeep, unless im wrong about that, explain to me how i run a stock time.

Ok the Jet chip like I said re-learns the stock form after a while. Also your wheels and tires are heavier and wider than stock form. Heavier and wider wheels will slow you down.

Next is the AirAid, while it does sound sweet, it is a hot air intake. It is above 10-20 degrees than a Bwoody CAI. Cooler temps equal a happier/faster Jeep.

Next up is your exhaust, the magnaflow catback is not a straight through, free flowing exhaust. Thats going to hold you back a little.

Thats my explanation on how you will run in the high 6's-low 7's.

KidFresh5.7

10-12-2009, 09:38 AM

what does anyone think is the ideal wheel/tire combo for speed? Jeep's dont really need all the rubber that gets put on stock if your staying on pavement, so something lower profile than stock? I saw the tuners adjust for tire size

KidFresh5.7

10-12-2009, 09:43 AM

I have an extra set of 18's that I want to turn into a setup for the strip

mzh29

10-12-2009, 05:23 PM

Dude if the hemi does 0-60 in the high six low sevens, that means that I could concievably hang with a stocker! I would have to give myself a huge pat on the back if that ever happens for my 4.7. I know, I know, you srt guys laugh with your 4-3.5 second times.

pjs1965

10-12-2009, 07:55 PM

I don't compare the SRT8 with the other Jeeps. It's just not right. I had a HEMI Limited before the SRT8 and I didn't even KNOW I could mod it. Boy did I miss out.

WOW 4.32 sec !!!!! should you be running a lower 1/4 mile # , I mean 13.84 seams high for a car running 0-60 in 4.32 :confused: why are slowing down up top ?

Actually it was being slow on the bottom end. Torque Management was killing it.

I have not been back to the track to run with the ABS fuse pulled which netted the new 4.38 time.

Pulling that fuse knocked .4 seconds off my previous best 0-60 mph time.

When I go back to the track, I should see a very low 13, or maybe a pinch better, and 104 to 105 mph now.

Sometime this week gonna try to get back to the track.

Previous 60 ft was between 2.25 and 2.30, traction control was killing it. I expect now I should be able to get a 1.80 or so.

Damn cold here right now, Norwalk has nothing except an open race this Friday then closing down after a big haloween race.

Milan Michigan is open till mid November, but a 2 hour drive one way. Not sure if they will be running this week as it is mid 40's in the day and near freezing at night.

LTrainGC

10-13-2009, 11:30 AM

yeah put it down better, the same reason srt8's have 10'' wheels in the back n lambos have 12'', a wider tire grabs the ground better and goes, my "putting it down", the stock ones felt like shit when i punched it off the line, I'm not saying mudders will run pro-mod times

It's not so much your tires keeping you slow, but those heavy ass rims. Takes more power to get them rolling, and keep them rolling.

A wide tire is good to get traction, but you gotta have a lightweight wheel. The SRT rims are lightweight aluminum IIRC.

It's nice and cool out here today... I'll do a couple 0-60's on my way home from work with the superchips.

Well not so sure of that just yet! Goal is to take the all stock 5.7 with the bolt on turbo at low boost to run with or slightly better than a stock SRT-8 Cherokee.

I am pretty close right now, the speed is there, just need to get the 60ft and ET down a bit and I will be there.

The ABS fuse looks like it will do it based on what I saw last night, just need to get verification.

May go make a 1/4 mile run tonight on the dashhawk to see what it comes up with, they are within a +/-.1 from all the data I have seen.

When I launched last night it was instant boost off the line and it pulled like a freight train.

Just got home... did 2 0-60 runs, first one was slightly uphill, second one was slightly downhill. Had 3/4 tank of gas, subs in the back, turn off ESP, no autostick. Ambient conditons - truck was fully warmed up, 73 degrees outside and about 65% humidity, 800 feet above sea level. Average time of 6.27 seconds. Not too bad for the canned 91 tune with the superchips I don't think.

Look in your manual under fuses, and find the one that says ABS Pump. It should be a pink 30amp cavity fuse (big, not a mini fuse).

Thanks for the response, I did some looking, srt8cherokee posts say the stock srt8 rims are:
Wheels = Front , 36.2 lbs. Back, 37.6 lbs.
Tires = Front, 36 lbs. Back, 40 lbs.

Can anyone with one an srt8 confirm this? It doesnt make me feel as bad about my setup being 32 lbs rims with 34 lbs tires

When comparing the wheels and tires between SRT8 Jeeps and 5.7 HEMI Jeeps, just keep in mind that the SRT8 wheel/tire combo is MUCH wider by comparison with little weight penalty.

Front
SRT8 20” x 9” with Goodyear RS-A runflat 255/45/ZR20 tires
17" x 7.5" with P245/65R17 Goodyear Fortera all-terrain tires
18" x 7.5" with Goodyear Wrangler black sidewall BSW all-terrain P245/60R18 tires
Rear
SRT8 20" x 10" with Goodyear RS-A runflat 285/40/ZR20 tires
17" x 7.5" with P245/65R17 Goodyear Fortera all-terrain tires
18" x 7.5" with Goodyear Wrangler black sidewall BSW all-terrain P245/60R18 tires

I don't have the weight differences between the various 17x7.5 wheels compared to the 18's or the 20's.
