Wish you guys would make a video with JT and JL with Ripp Supercharger on the road. Actually pulling a trailer.
Very nice video! Extremely professional explanations of your supercharger, how it works and the number gains. My JT is on order and will consider your product and do some research and get back to you with some questions. Thank you for your time and God bless.
Thank you, look forward to hearing from you.
Just ordered one I can’t wait!
Awesomeness
Great stuff guys!!!
Pulled 5500lbs at 70mph like a champ 💪
great video, the one takes are awesome
When will this be available on your website (meaning all the parts for the upgrade to the JT) and it would have been cool to have seen a more before and after video i.e. what did the JT Rubicon do on the DYNO prior to the upgrade and then add this to the after video.
Coming very soon
How would this kit interface with a snorkel? I could understand maybe having to run custom tubing if the intake is relocated, but would the increased vacuum potentially collapse a snorkel's intake tubing?
We have a carbon fiber sealed snorkel box on our website. We recommend the 4in AEV snorkel if you are shopping. You can call or email tech@rippmods.com for more info.
Nice content. Quick question though. Do the super charger need regular maintenance? If yes, what kind of maintenance? Thanks,
Hi check out this video for answers to your questions and more ua-cam.com/video/ZS2yF9dAkkU/v-deo.html
Nice!
Good video. Do you think the transmission will hold when towing 5,000 pounds and the supercharger? EDIT: I’m sure it will hold for X time but what are the long term problems
The transmission has proven strong in other platforms already. We have not heard of anyone burning one up. A sharp eye on engine and trans temps while towing will avoid these issues.
Waiting on the Mojave Gladiator to come out then it's either Supercharger or Hemi swap. I want a desert runner.
Supercharger is definitely A LOT cheaper, unless you know how to do all the engine swap work yourself.
Get ready to dump the same price of the JTL on a HEMI swap lol
I did a GM L83 5.3 with an 8 speed, not for big power, but for efficiency and range (600 miles) with my dual fuel tanks.
I could SC and make over 600hp but what for? It's a jeep.
How much should I expect to pay to have this installed in a JT ? Will it work with a snorkel? (I live in the high desert). What gearing would be appropriate for 37” tires plus this kit?
Please email tech@rippmods.com for more details or call 7188151313 they can better assist you with these questions
How much boost is it making?
Question as soon as you install a twin screw super charger the upper intake is gone so is the throttle body, and with boost you want less compression. So please explain how and what is different on these 3.6 pentastar engines?
But you guys use a centrifical super charger those make more boost, so wouldn't you need less compression other wise you are prone to knock and will have to run say 5-6psi?
Hello, check out this FAQ video, it covers this and few other questions you may have. ua-cam.com/video/ZS2yF9dAkkU/v-deo.html
Additionally see this video on a JL which is the same engine and transmission, it also targets your question. ua-cam.com/video/q9GyDH1pCCU/v-deo.html
Hello, what about the manual transmission on the gladiator? same procedures? the same gain in HP?
ua-cam.com/video/ZS2yF9dAkkU/v-deo.html
as well as a forward facing camera that you want to remote mount
Camera works with our system
Just got a 2020 gladiator rubicon with the manual transmission.Can I use your product with the manual?What it the cost and where in NY are you?Also I will be putting a flowmaster cat back system in shortly.Great video great chargers have a blessed day
Yes, we've had a 6spd JL in testing for over a year without issues. We are in Staten island NY, catback will not be an issue. Please email sales@rippmods.com for more information on your vehicle.

I have my Jeep Gladiator now but your website says the kit is “Coming Soon”. Should I shop somewhere else?
We are in a soft launch with our products for the JL/JT to make sure they are tight and ready for market. You should email sales@rippmods.com to get on our mailing list and get periodic updates.
Will using this supercharger increase the amount of weight a manual transmission gladiator can tow?
It will tow the weight better, but weight restrictions are based on chassis and not power.
Is there an installer in alaska?
Are you running stock engine oil weight or would you recommend going to a thicker viscosity when running this kit?
We are leaning thicker
Following up: we have switched to thicker
@@RIPPMODS thank you for the follow up, if you can keep on updating us on this topic it would be great, please and thank you
@@RIPPMODS what weight oil and brand type u guys running??
My JT needs this bad!!!!
Can you guys do a dyno run in 4wd? I’m curious to see how much more Powertrain loss there is with the front axle engaged
The 4WD system is not designed to run at that speed.
RIPP Superchargers 🤔really I’ve run my Jeep at highway speeds in 4WD plenty of times ( snowy conditions) with no issue .
@@mattmcdonough707 the answer is an additional 10% loss. So 220whp is 198whp and 376whp is 340whp.
RIPP Superchargers dang so my 2008 Unlimited on 35’s and 3:73 probably is putting around 125WHP 😂😢
@@mattmcdonough707 hmm well if we're being specific we've seen 3.8JK as low as 98whp in 35s with 3:21s the the 3:73s closer to 110. With the RIPP 220whp and 180trq. Makes it way livable.
Have you done any testing with a JL 3.6 and the 6-speed manual?
Yes, plenty, they are very strong transmissions
What is the octane requirement? I live in Colorado and 91octane is the best we can get. I’m also driving at higher altitudes all the time.
Rick Boyett most of their tunes are 91 based and they also offer smaller pulleys to compensate for altitude boost loss
We tune on ethanol enriched 91 octane so as not to lie to clients. It's generally available nation wide and emulates the fuel we use. Even so our tuning logic will sense knock if the fuel is weak and keep the engine safe.
@@RIPPMODS OK, you've got me interested. I'll be reaching out.. thx.
Have you done any ET 0-60 times?
I follow Waldys Off Road. He have made his Gladiator with RIPP Supercharger, its been a huge difference you can feel it.
Yes thank you - it's a big difference
ua-cam.com/video/bMe1x1YjY5s/v-deo.html
@@JeepD Yes - we provide only one BOV with our kits
@@JeepD this kit equipped with the RIPP XL intercooler and Alt pulley 👍
@@JeepD if you're looking for more power, the power is in the timing, bring it onto a dyno and light it up. We air on the side of caution 👍
Hey Ripp, I know this may sound stupid lol but is there any way to do a more conservative 87 Oct tune while running the supercharger kit?
Nope, with the compression the 87oct is super weak. You would end up using more weak fuel and getting worse gas mileage. The 91up will get better MPG when driven respectfully.
Check out this video ua-cam.com/video/ZS2yF9dAkkU/v-deo.html
@@RIPPMODS Sounds good to me. Thanks for the quick follow up. Supercharger is on my wishlist
whoa...added to wishlist
11.3:1 compression is too high for boost for any kind of longevity. If towing, I’d really be concerned, I would love a reply please as I am seriously interested in buying one to match the one I currently own on my LJ Stretchy.
Hello, no other manufacturer has done more real-world testing than RIPP. We've done over 33k miles of accelerated testing on one vehicle and another 30k collective miles on 3 others through the last 15mnth. We have found that 370whp is safe on 91oct fuel. This particular vehicle just completed a 400mile round trip towing 5500lbs boat and gear with no issues and then went on to two 3000 miles to the offroad expo. It will continue to tow a small trailer with our gear in it for our road show. We are very confident in our package at this point and feel we've done everything in our power to rest prior to launching. We did not rush to market instead took our time and developed the kit. With over 8000 JK Supercharger kits on the market we had our own big shows to fill.
Your welcome to contact our staff directly at sales@rippmods.com or give them a call 7188151313 they will be happy to address your concerns.
@@RIPPMODS The problem is that the places a lot of us take our Jeeps, it's IMPOSSIBLE to get 91 octane gas. Earlier this year, we couldnt find but 85 octane over 3 fuel stops. If you are just going to drive in the city, great, but if you use your Jeep. It is a problem.
@@BobLionel we have seldom come across this in the near 8000 Wrangler JK kits we have sold. When we do we advise the client to run octane boosters. Are you at high elevation?
2012 Chrysler 200 would you make a kit for them?
So sorry, we do not support the FWD set up. Its very tight in there for our kits. We will be releasing the RIPP performance ignition coils shortly, they have proven over 12whp and people write great reviews on them all the time.
Nice 👌🏼
Got a price for this kit? is it all inclusive?.. any recommended parts?
All our kits are all inclusive no extras needed for more information email sales@rippmods.com they are happy to help
How difficult of an install is it? About how much would it cost to get it installed?
Hey thanks for stopping by check this video out ua-cam.com/video/ZS2yF9dAkkU/v-deo.html
Will this kit work with Manual transmission in JLU?
ua-cam.com/video/p3AG_Be88ZM/v-deo.html yes 👍
What are the changes in 0-60 time and top speed? Great video btw!
Vertuelly none because of the computers system it's a jeep not a race car, if you want POWER do a v8 conversion not this expensive power adder
@@danialphaomega with other super chargers the time has increased by 4 seconds so I'm pretty sure this probably around the same increase time.
@@danialphaomega Shut up you stupid fuck
Do you really need intercooler on supercharger? Have you tried heavy towing with that combination.
You absolutely need an intercooler on a supercharger. Yes we've done two major tow tests 1) 5500lbs for 370miles and a long term 2000lbs overland camper for 11000 miles. Both excellent results and performance.
@@RIPPMODS Thank you I was just wondering since supercharger is not heating up air like turbocharger. My thought was that it could be made simpler chipper and lighter without...
@@zelenizub2036 compressed air is hot either way, however it is much hotter in a turbo since its exhaust driven. But cooler denser air is beneficial to making consistent power, especially when towing 👍
@@RIPPMODS i was totally forgetting that just compressing the air makes it hotter. But anyway your solution looks elegant and simple enough. Thanks
What about for the HEMI ?
They have a 5.7 and 6.4 kit for some platforms.
Cost installed? Time needed? Available dates around holidays?
Hello please email sales@rippmods.com for more details on this.
Do you guys have any headers for the gladiator? I want to change the full exhaust manifold, cat and full exhaust system.
Hi - the 3.6 does not have a conventional header, it has a momo-port head - all you need is a cat-back exhaust, this will be a 2020 item for us.
RIPP Superchargers I already got magnaflow crawler exhaust. Love it so far, but wanted to also get proper headers. Gladiator lacks a little power. Mind you I’m not saying it’s not a fun car. By far it’s one of my favourite cars to drive, just lacks power is my 1 complain.
@@epho4772 the supercharger is amazing power and we are working on exhaust with real results
@@epho4772 With stuff like this you should email info@rippmods.com
When I saw it, I felt that I need it... lol feel so bad to walk away
Does adding the supercharger void your warranty?
We would suggest speaking to your dealer about that, we cannot say for sure on our end.
I was thinking of waiting for the diesel but now i don’t know 🤷🏼♂️
ua-cam.com/video/ZS2yF9dAkkU/v-deo.html
How has it held up over the past 4 years?
Thank you for the comment. The vehicle is still holding up great and running smoothly after 4 years. Email us at RIPPmods@RIPPmods.com if you have additional questions.
I know what I'm buying when I get a JT this year
How much boost/psi does the kit produce ?
Hello @SRT__618
Thank you for commenting. In our testing, our supercharger kits make around 7-8psi after full installation. This number is well within the range that the internals of the vehicle can handle. If you have any additional questions, or need more clarification, please email RIPPmods@RIPPmods.com, we will gladly help you there.
Does it increase towing capabilities?
Are asking about increasing the above 7000lbs or if it will tow 7000 better?
What does a kit cost with installation?
Installation cost is based on shop rate. We suggest reaching out to your installer for a quote.

They will need it for the overland gear.
Totally agree, we just finished a tow test with this vehicle 5500lbs for 360miles. It did great
Will be my first mod when I get my JT.
Still nothing for 3.6 2016-2019 Grand Cherokee?

Kits are rolling out now
What is the difference between a RIPP supercharger and Procharger? Maybe I'm wrong but it seems they both work off the same principle of using engine rpm to boost incoming air pressure via a belt and pulley on the engine powering a turbine to create the increased air volume into the intake. Is there an advantage to RIPP over Procharger?
RIPP has sold over 8000kits worldwide for Jeep Wranglers with less than a .1% fail rate across all conditions and years and drivetrains. Earning its place as the number one selling supercharger for Jeep Wranglers and trusted across all borders as a power adder. From a sheer technical standpoint the V3-Si Trim compressor used in our system is by far more efficient than the unit our competitors are using requiring much less RPM to turn and make power with, this translates to more power with less energy loss and better fuel efficiency. Lastly by way of application they have choosen to relocate the sensitive alternator lower in the engine bay making it susceptible to failure and complicating the installation. This process also locks out the ability to add a power steering pump in the future for hardcore off roaders and clients looking to run 40+ tires that will need that pump. Conversely our system is easier to install, has less impact on the engine bay and is very lending to other aftermarket offroad parts.
So the concept is basically the same but the RIPP system is better engineered and more thought and attention has been put into the execution on a vehicle-to-vehicle basis. Pretty much what I assumed really, I'm really looking forward to when the kit for the Ram1500 pentastar become available in Canada. Great videos, very informative
@@davereynolds5871 Thank you. Centrifugal superchargers have been around a long time, the Vortech V3-Si is just a great unit with the newest tech thrown at it. The real benefit here is we live with our products, we own and drive each kit which is why we take a little more time to get to market.
Not that it matters but that’s not a Launch Addition, a Launch Addition has every option. This JT doesn’t have a camera, steel bumpers and the blackout special wheels. Love the extra HP. that would be helpful when I pull a dump trailer with my JT Launch Addition.
You are correct it was a slip up. The extra power to tow is really handy, the compressor delivers power very predictably and light enough not to worry but consistent enough to make it useful. Very natural power.
Can the manual handle this?
Yep, tested a full year in a JLnon 40s, trans is strong. No weak links.
Where do I buy it ???
Please visit www.rippmods.com for more information on your vehicle or email sales@rippmods.com for more details
11.3:1 compression is too high for boost for any kind of longevity. If towing, I’d really be concerned
Reliability is very important to us, in fact we've done nearly 30000 miles of testing on one vehicle this year and have learned alot about this engine. This includes towing long distances at high elevation. Its important to remember that a centrifugal supercharger acts much more like a light pressure turbo most of the time and it's not banging the engine with boost all the time and not over boosting any time. The power levels we are releasing are very safe and steer away from engine failure.
So that translates to about 458hp/390tq at the crank. I need to start a gofundme so I can get one. Lol
Yep... killer set up
So far they aren't reliable, they have many problems. Can you guys fix all the problems and make them reliable, and give a really good warranty on the products, please???
What's not reliable?
RIPP, in an effort to be very thorough has not launched its JL/JT products at this time. In fact we have several testers honestly went through trials for us is various climates. Collectively RIPP has completed 77000 miles over 4 vehicles with one completing over 33000 alone across the country towing offroad equipment on 40in tires. We are just starting to roll product out now and feel the product is as good if not better than our JK products which has sold over 8000 units.
However, we do agree with you, our competitors have been first to market and rushed to market and they did have serious problems. We chose the more productive route and used our time to develop properly and launch a near perfect kit.
Questions welcome
So how do you get around detonation issues when boosting a high compression engine. 11.6:1 is to much compression to boost more than 4psi with pump gas. Even then that’s pushing it at low rpm. Also is it Ca legal? 100hp gain? Bullshit! That’s 10 plus psi boost. No way that engine will hold up to this long term.
We don't have any detonation issues - Consider we've spent the past 20 year supercharging high-compression V6 engines - Tuning is the signal most important factor and RIPP was the first ones to crack the tuning in all 3 generations of Jeep Wrangler JK. With the JL program we've tested for 37000 miles on one vehicle last year and soft launched 20 systems for extended data to make sure we were solid. With the JL/JT program we didn't want to be first to market but rather best to market.
RIPP Superchargers Been working with boosted engines for years and no one would boost 11.6:1 compression without at the lease water meth injection or 100 octane. Just my opinion and what do I know. But after a google search I can see the issues are almost all the same. Every company selling a kit like this weather it be a turbo or sc have nothing but issues. I have no doubt back when the Jeep engines were lower in compression you had a product that could last for years but not any more. You risk heat associated detonations, low rpm detonations, blow by...... no amount of tuning can fix these risks. Only better fuel or water injection. Not to mention voiding the warrantee.
@@hill160881 It's 11.3:1 compression not 11.6:1. We've been in business for 30 years and have been turbocharging and supercharging a huge variety of small displacement engines. Respectfully, we've sold over 8000 kits worldwide with the 10.2:1 Compression 2012-2018 Wrangler engine which is also found in the V6 cars (which we also supercharge). Those clients run 15psi without meth which arguably is the same as 9psi in an 11:1. Lastly, we've done 37000 miles of real world testing on the 11.3 version and then stripped down the engine to make sure it did not stress internal components and prematurely ware it's assemblies. With respect to this engine and it's functionality we believe we are in the best position to determine what factually can and cannot be done here. And while we respect and appreciate a fellow enthusiast, this vehicle and engine group is our life's work and therefore we are very cautious with our clients. No other manufacture has tested this platform and extensively as we have.
Do I need it or do I want it? 🤔 ......... I want it for my JT this will be my next purchase in the near future 😜
The want is the need and the need is the want... it's a paradox
Your dyno chart says you took that Jeep to 6200 rpm but it definitely didn’t sound like it? Still running that out dated dyno dynamics software I see...smh
The engine went to redline the dyno is accurate...
Your competition makes a 100 horse power less in a v6 chev camero !
Huh?
Dont use a prodigy turbo.Start looking on youtube.Turbo on gladiator.
No thanks. 11.5:1 compression motor + supercharger = problems.
77000 miles complete would say this is not an issues, we have been diligent with our testing.
