I was thinking in getting a scooby, but i dont knw. I've put lots of tought in. And I can find a Skittle way cheaper and parts are way more cheap.. WRX parts tend to be real expensive.... any how. question was. I want to knw from personal exp. IF SRT-4's handle good? I mean not only as if they were fast or what not. but reliable is what im concerned!.... I mean i just hear so many ppl talk Crap about em. They break this they break that... blabh blah.. I dont knw if ppl just hating on em.. Or what not..
BUt i really love the way the look and sound, and i am thnkin of gettin one in the next week or 2..
Some advice would be greatly apreciated !!!!

ps. Im just plannin to run stock boost...

I would take my srt-4 over a wrx anyday....as for a sti...id put my money elsewhere. For instance a evo 9 or a 03 cobra. I love my srt-4 to death but to chicks its only a neon.

I have never had any trouble from the SRT parts I use(well, except the 03 timing belt tensioner had a weird problem, but the 04 one I use now doesnt)

My car has been flawless..it was sprayed by 2500 miles and had a turbo upgrade by 4000 miles. The car puts down about 427whp with less than $2100 into it. I personally know wrx's with over $16k with 7 whp less.lol.

Its funny you listed $16k b/c thats what it took to make this 04 STi stock to 616awhp full time meth injection. Mid 10's on its stock rims and tires, on the break in tune. WRX-STi with that 16k set up the result would be the same as the block has been totaly replaced. :)

Love the srt would have rather had the wrx because of the awd but when it boils down to it 6 thousand dollars for a slower car just doesnt sound right, granted the wrx isnt all that much slower stock but for that extra cash u can buy a ton of porn cuz srt owners get no respect..... unless ur me because mines orange.

beware there's a few other colors(like red)that are factory freaks powerwise and they get plenty of respect--lol

heh, true, the ONLY parts that have failed on me on my neon ever were ones it was my fault to begin with(like the spun rod bearing where I decided an itty bitty scratch on the crankshaft journal was going to be ok because the machinist said so, rather than replacing the crank like I should have)
