ih8vtec13 Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Hehehe, Yeah I looked at the Magnum too for about 3 seconds before dismissing it. Neat car, but not for me. It is a cool car and i did look at it a little but I was more likley to go for the 300c over it. I know they are the same thing but the 300 just looks better.

Nsaglibene Posted February 3, 2005 Author Share Posted February 3, 2005 Heh sound twins, well by friday performance wise you will be way ahead of me. If some sounds are waht your looking for than it should be good, something more or a WRX driver is looking for, that not so luxery sound is just about it, and thats what I wanted too. As for the AP I am not running the AP yet, there were some concerns about the intake and the AP together, but from how things look the perrin intake isnt that much diffent not much wider or anything so hopefully it will be alright. I hope all goes well because I really do not want to take off my intake when I run the AP the silencer removal just isnt loud enough for me. I as long as you have guages to monitor you should be safe. Hope all goes well. -NS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stock vs Stock the SRT may eventually pull but I'm not sure." THE SRT-4 PUTS DOWN 220-240HP TO THE WHEELS STOCK. IT WEIGHS 200 POUNDS LESS THAN THE LIGHTEST LEGACY GT.

Beanboy Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/features/0302scc_neon/ Manufacturer's Horsepower : 215 hp @ 5400 rpm Horsepower as Measured at the Wheels: 223 hp @ 5600 rpm Manufacturer's Claimed Torque: 245 lb-ft @ 2000 rpm Torque as Measured : 250 lb-ft @ 3100 rpm http://turbomagazine.com/tech/0407tur_srt02_z.jpg Our SRT-4 generated 218.8 hp and 222.8 lb-ft of torque in factory trim. Dodge definitely underrated the factory issued output of the stout SRT-4 engine. http://www.modernperformance.com/dcx/srt4_faq.htm It was very obvious to everyone when magazines started testing the SRT-4 on dynos and got on average 220-230 hp and 230-240 torque that the horsepower numbers were way underrated by Dodge. So, on paper, Dodge rated the numbers higher to state the hp and torque numbers a little closer to the real world power numbers. Are the power numbers accurate now ? We don’t think so, taking into account the 10 – 15% drive train loss between the engine and the wheels the correct hp figures should be closer to 250-255 hp and 260-270 torque at the engine. Good enough? I could keep going... THE SRT-4 IS DA FASTEST! Well, not the fastest, but certainly faster than a LGT in the 1/4 stock for stock... -B -B http://www.standardshift.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beanboy Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 I like them, and I liked the ACR 1st gen models as well. What other cars came with koni adjustables from the factory?

And I agree, weight is sorta nipicking on my part... Still, driving an SRT4 is like driving a Camaro....it may be fast, but you look like a tool. My fiance laughs at the guys she sees, saying 'poor bastard' (start ahole rant)Not everyone buys their cars to be seen. Some by their cars to be seen only from behind.(end ahole rant) I mean, this is all just my $.02... I'm just so tired of people pulling the "but it's a neon waaaaaaaaah" card.

Drift Monkey Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 All joking aside, is that *really* that big a deal? It saves weight... I'll contest that statement. Modern power window units are much lighter than they once were. In fact, many power window units are _lighter_ than their manual counterparts! What's your excuse now Dodge?

The SRT is a damned nice and fast car, if you give it an honest chance. I have driven my share of Neon's (mostly rental cars). Try as you might, you can't polish a turd. You obviously can make it go like stink though. Just think how much faster it would be if they made the front windows manual instead of power too. What have you proven by showing another car your taillights? How small your jockstrap is? Who cares? There will always be someone faster. If all you cared about was speed, buy a used '90 Mustang LX and put a crate motor with a blower in it. You would get a faster car and spend less money.
