1996 Jeep Cherokee with a 2JZ-GTE inline-six

Chad Kassem has spent a lot of time and effort building his unique 1996 Jeep Cherokee. Under the hood sits a turbocharged 2JZ-GTE inline-six featuring a custom exhaust manifold and Mitsubishi Evo 8 turbocharger. Chad kept the Cherokee’s 4WD thanks to a hybrid A340E/AW4 automatic transmission that connects to a NP231 transfer case. The rest of the drivetain is stock.
