There are several stages you can take when attempting to make a Cherokee faster, here they are. This is my personal stages,
I reside in Colorado, so my times are slower than average, don't laugh...
Stage one
All of my current mods (save for a changed o2 sensor and the high altitude CPS)
19.6! Horrible!
I kicked the tire a few times and went to work with a lot of room for improvment
Stage two
I added a bosch oxygen sensor and I removed the custom 4x4 bumper (100 lbs) the air was a bit cooler (5*)
19.0 still slow, but getting there
Stage three
I added a high altitude CPS (crank position sensor), removed the rear bumper, the rear seat, and added 235/75r15 tires
and stock wheels
To my suprise-18.1
That is where I have stopped (for now, I am at college-JEEP less)
(PLANED)
Stage 4
Smaller tires, 225/70r15 tires, a bored throttle body (59mm) and the removal of my front skid, tcase skid, and genuine
steel nerfbars
*PREDICTED* 17.3
