So i pull out onto SR54, give it a few wide open throttle pulls after checking/rechecking everything. I make a U to go back and deliver it to its owner when i see this rather stock WS6. I waited till i was past him and since i had an open stretch i did one last pull, he gave chase but was no where near. So im slowing down to make a left turn and he made sure to roll up and let me know how he felt...

"SOUNDS LIKE SHIT! and its fuckin slow..."

I just pointed at him and laughed my ass off....he got pissed and took off. The car was tuned for 410fwhp (21psi/pump) on the old turbo and will be getting tuned this weekend on the new one. Car felt decently stout while testing but will need fine tuning. Currently its running 20psi but the first few pulls i saw 25psi on pump gas while still running pig rich but to be safe i backed the boost down a lil. Stock engine, tranny, axles and a mopar clutch

I love both muscle and some 4bangers.. But it is true...People can talk all $hit they want to about an SRT-4 but at the end it'll still be walking alot of v8's..
Like it was sayd in earlier post's.. what 4 cylinder car is able to make 400+hp on a stock engine and still be daily driver....
Thats probably the cheapest/fast car you can find these days for about 16k and have it stock & have a descent amount of power!.(4cylinders) that is.. lol
You can buy a cheap @$$ Foxbody slap a cpl of mods and all that would cost you under $4k and your ass would almost be off the ground!.. << haha but thats a different story!

I respect the little buggers, they are overall a great value
