More Power for gen4 Jimny

Btw, the alteration of the car in not my design. The car was altered by an engineering company called Arctic Trucks in Iceland, which has a long standing reputation for altering trucks/SUVs for mountain and glacial use. They have been altering Jimnys for the past 2 decades or so without problems, so I guess they have judged the alteration to be sufficient. I briefly considered altering it for 33" (better flotation in snow for glacial use), but they advised against it, in part because of the issues you mention, but also because they didn´t see the need (the 31" apparently provides sufficient flotation in snow to allow for glacial use with the car being as light as it is - We will see about that this winter).
Ah so it's been engineered properly then. Yeah there isn't a Jimny out there that would stand an on road comparison to something with over 400 hrsprs.

One of the last 200ish of the gen3s, probably.
