Voyage of The Black Gypsy

After reprogramming the computer for 4.88s, she’s turning about 2100 rpm at 60 and about 2500 at 70.

Just don't drive over 70 and all will be ok.

On the plus side, the transmission is less likely to down-shift on the steep hills so the engine is less likely to rev higher in those situations.

pft, on my 2010 JKU with the 3.8, anemic 3 speed transmission (OD/4th was always locked out) I'd still do up to 90mph, it was a screamer but got the job done when needed.

Usually kept it around 70-80, 65 if I wanted good mpg lol

Gears are broke in and took Gypsy out to Five Mile Pass to get her feet dirty. Performance is noticeably improved on and off road. Along with improving performance in 4lo, off-road performance in 4hi and even 2hi is better and the Jeep is more versatile. I should have installed 4.88s a long time ago.
