Re: H3 underpowered?
 

:giggling: I hear ya Dave. Just clarifying. I didn't want to steer any potential H3 owners away, because if misinformation or attitude. If you're complaining and you already own it? Sell it or STFU. :giggling: :beerchug:

Re: H3 underpowered?
 

I got a loaner 07 h3 yesterday for my o6. It is passed the breakin period with 4k on the od. All I can say is that it feels just a little more peppy, not powerful If you can understand that. Also, a little less downshifting, but definately not a big power difference, and IMO not worth upgrading too if you dont need to.

Re: H3 underpowered?
 

I recently had my PCM reprogrammed by PCMforless and after 4 days of driving with it, I can honestly say it feels like a new and more powerful truck - well worth the money.

Re: H3 underpowered?
 

Post some pics Doc! I like lights. How much did the reprogram cost you? :beerchug:

Re: H3 underpowered?
 

Fail to see anything technical regarding this question. Its general at best and for some fool who has not even taken the time to even test drive the vehicle and then expect a user group to debate it is crazy.
These trolls are a waste of time. Posts like this and others like it undermine the integrity of the forum and the H3.:lame: :lame: :lame:

Re: H3 underpowered?
 

Take it easy there wpage. Actually if you read the thread, the original poster was very kind, not a troll like that other clown Graydog, simply asking owner opinions not running her mouth. Call the trolls trolls, but dont drive away the perpestive H3ers. You know as soon as they get in the dirt they will love it! :beerchug:

Re: H3 underpowered?
 

Well, I never meant to offend, I was asking for information from the people that would know the most, H3 owners.I can see that you all love your H3s,and from all the information on your forums I think I love it before I even take it for a test drive.

Re: H3 underpowered?
 

H3 is way overpowerd. I cant stop burning ruber. Its annoying. I'll be pulling out of my driveway and a little to much gass. And bam. Smoke down the street. I wish they put a smaller engine in it. This is just wrong. Im gonna have to buy tires every 1000 miles. Is there anyway to stop from smoking the tires all the time? Maybe i should get a wheelie bar and a chute?

Re: H3 underpowered?
 

The reprogram was $199 + shipping (I think that was about $15). I actually had them send me a loaner, sent my PCM to them then swapped back. Takes about 10 minutes to do the swap.

I put grill lights and marker lights on already and will be putting a Plus 1 light bar on (hopefully this weekend) then take and post some pictures.

Other things I have done are put in an OEM nav system with the intentions of a back-up camera so I don't do what I did with my Jeep - unintentionally modify a Volvo's front quarter:D
Thanks

I know this has been said many times before....if you want to go like a bullet buy a sports car. But if you want to drive one of, if not the most capable off road production vehicles available, not to mention one of the most unique and cool looking trucks on the road then buy the Hummer. I get more looks from my hummer than any other vehicle i have driven. go for the hummer...you wont be dissapointed!

Hey Paul,

I agree, the pcm reprogram makes a lot of difference.

Nice to see another Esprit guy here. :jump:

V8 WILL happen for '08.

The H3 is not slow, but passing anyone on two lane roads is an adventure.

Re: H3 underpowered?
 

If you want an SUV that has power don't get an H3. No bashing, no BS, it's not underpowered, it definitely "gets the job done," but it's one of the least powerful SUVs out there.

Re: H3 underpowered?
 

Lets not start this one again.

Re: H3 underpowered?
 

Story is you belong on the jeep forum---if you drive it and can't make up your own mind how can we do it.

You are always more than welcome to ask my opinion, as well as those of many other members here :grouphug:

Re: H3 underpowered?
 

Hey guys - what kind of difference did the PCM make for you? What other mods do you have? And could you do the swap yourself?

I think I am very interested in this mod :beerchug:
