gas mileage & toys

[evoljeep]

I live in the upper peninsula of Michigan and spend 60-70% of my time on the road driving up hill / mountain sides. I have read and browsed the forums and it is all so many mixed reviews.

I have a 2010 jeep liberty sport.
Use regular penzoil and filter
Have 71,000 miles on it now.

0 mods all cosmetics -
Vent shades (I smoke & love them)
Tints (matched to back)
Sylvania ultra bright bulbs
16x8.5 wheel 255/70
Bug deflector that hasn't deflected much

Here's what I want to do and my biggest questions. Here's how she sits right now, kind of wished I researched more as I went with 16x8.5 wheels.

These are the tires I made my mind on,

TBS worth it?

The intake -

The exhaust -

Then denzo wires & plugs? I want to make sure I get the most efficient plugs I can. Once all of this is done a jet stage 2 chip is going in and I'm going to burn midgrade.

Wanted a bull bar but need tow hooks more (live in upper Michigan) so really where I'm at is what plugs burn most efficiently? Is a TBS a waste of cash? I know intake and exhaust will net me very little but the price is right. Thanks ahead! Been waiting to order and have been browsing mixed threads was wondering if someone here had these mods and saw an mpg growth? Also do they make a header for the 2010? If so I can't seem to find it.

The K&N filter is a waste of $$$,you also bought the wrong spark plugs as your engine requires copper core(nickel) plugs only.Your also going to take a big hit in mpg's with those wheels and tires.

 

[evoljeep]

I didn't buy the plugs. Was just an example because the others were not showing on the site. Ya wish I would have thought about it a bit before I bought wheels.

The only thing I think I've made up my mind on. But above is how she sits as is.

Good tires. That's all I got.

 

[evoljeep]

Ya I'm gonna pass on the exhaust / intake and get skid plates and a hitch. Even around 500.00 for the exhaust and intake it just doest seem worth it. Unless there was an IMF& header's to match and a tune specifically for it. For more torque anyway.

I have those tires and I like 'em. Should do you well come winter; I know you guys get crazy amounts of snow. Don't think they are the best bet if mpg's are the main concern though.

 

[evoljeep]

Nah mpg isn't main concern but I figured if I can pull out some torque and a smoother power band with a couple pony's why not do it all at once. Couple extra MPV would be nice!

Good choice

Hypertech eco
4.7 TB (off an 08 Cherokee)
K&N 77 series Intake
*NGK V-Power plugs*???? Current plugs have 70k
Dynapro's 255/70/r16x8.5" (stock ride height still) already have wheels

There's the mod list after talking to several people and reading until my eyes were almost bleeding. Still don't know what the best plug is but if I can't find a better than stock answer I'll just buy what it came with for the tuneup.

 

[renegade 04]

did you do the converson form the 3.7 to 4.7 your self or did you have a shop do it?

 

[evoljeep]

I am waiting for the shop to get one and I will probably wait until my CAI comes in and do it in 1 shot.
