With mine car still fresh in my mind i compared the two. I was expecting lots more power but was disappointed. I noticed the sluggish part throttle and the overall power was similar. Just a little more power @ 3,000 rpm up Nothing impressive. I even revved it up to 6k sounded and felt the same. Do you think the s/c was not engaging or is this just how all srt's feel. Got any idea why the -19 sign was on.
When I went to test drive and buy mine it had 24 miles on it, the wrench was flashing, low tire light was on and the check engine light was on. It ran fine other than a lot of brake noise. I was told that the reason why all these lights were on and the wrench was flashing because the battery had went completely dead and they had just charged it before I got there. So I told them I wanted them to check it out before I bought it. They took it into the shop checked it out, reset the ECU and everything was okay.
