If the four-banger turbo is such a great engine, how come it has never been an option on JT?, perhaps it's a "weak" engine? (flame suit on) :CWL:

I have had turbos in the past, a couple VW passats with the 1.8T, they were great until I had to replace the turbo on one of them at 100K, the other one started having engine issues at around 120K-130K if I remember correctly.
Two years ago I had a JL turbo rental in Hawaii for a week, it was plenty peppy, engine sounded like complete sh*t, just as bad as most four banger turbos nowadays...
I have no interest in keeping long term vehicles with turbos. My JKUR '15 V6 auto has been perfectly adequate at high altitude mountainpasses: Imogene, black bear, engineer, california, ophir, etc to name a few, never felt I was underpowered especially since you are traveling at an extremely slow pace. I intend on keeping the JKUR for life, same as the '23JTR V6 auto I picked up last month (at 34% off sticker :giggle:)

Well, don't get complacent with the 3.6 PUG in the JT. Head warpage/overheating issues are for all engines these days: (2) Head gasket time already? | Jeep Wrangler Forums (JL / JLU) -- Rubicon, 4xe, 392, Sahara, Sport - JLwranglerforums.com
