Greetings everyone.

I am postig this for an uncle of mine who has an 2009 Dodge Journey.
He is not interested in racing or nothing along those lines with this family vehicle. He is just concered with the performance of this new car he bought. He says that the Journey does not have good throttle responce at all. I can understand why....7 passanger vehicle with a 2.4L v4 engine..lol

I guess my question is, what can he upgrade to make the car lighter at throttle response?? He says it feels very heavy, specialy with his 4 kids and wife in it.

I suggested a K&N CAI and a programmer...But I don't know what programmer they make for these kind of vehicles.

any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Its a 2.4 Journey. Didn't he drive it before he bought it? Sorry but there's not a lot he can do.

I have the 3.5L and as far as I can tell K&N make a filter for them 2.0L,2.4L, and 3.5L all use same filter. No CAI as of yet.
