Sprintex Supercharger on 02 WJ

[shortstraw8]

Sprintex 257A1007 for 97-04 Jeep Wrangler TJ & Unlimited with 4.0L
Would I be wrong in assuming that this would work on a 2002 WJ Jeep Grand Cherokee with a 4.0l 6cyl?

Does not show it for WJ, so out of curiosity I emailed and asked if this would work, they contacted back saying it is due to:
"supercharger kit won’t fit 2002 Grand Cherokee as the driveline arrangement is different."

Maybe I am missing something obvious, but I feel like this should work on the 4.0 as there is not too much that is different
Intake and everything looks the same, maybe a few engine bay/possibly hood modifications would be needed.....
Anyone aware of anything major that would cause this not to work on an 02 WJ, just not seeing how the driveline would cause the supercharger not to fit.

probably airbox configuration or hood clearance?
anything is possible with enough fab.

Thats what I am thinking...

I originally read their response as "drive TRAIN arrangement is different" but I agree I am not sure how a driveline would matter...

If anything wouldn’t the WJ engine bay have more room than a TJ?

Have you considered a boosted technologies kit?

Sweet, could not think of anything other than potential hood/engine bay mods, as the motor should be the same.

I have now!
Thanks, I had not come across this company.

I'd be concerned with the electrical/ECU side of things much more than physical fitment...

Did you ever pull the trigger? I have been interested in the Boosted kit for my YJ, but would love to hear some feedback.

Not yet, bought a house with remodeling that and life in general this has been on the back burner.
When I do though, it will likely be the boostedtech kit.
