I saw a video online of a srt6 raping a STI. I knew the srt6 was fast but always thought they didn’t have much modding potential. After being on your site for the last week. I see I was very very wrong. I am strongly considering(AKA trying to convince the wife)into buying a srt6. The only down fall is theirs no manual. I have only driven manuals since I learned to drive. But so far I heard good things about the tiptronic tranny. I had a few questions. How hard are these to launch. That’s my biggest problem with the srt4 is getting off the line. The biggest tire it will take up front is a 235. I have solid motor mounts and falken aziens RT-615. I am still having a super hard time launching. How are the fuel systems on these. I see a lot of people on hear upgrading pulleys. Is the srt6 full system pretty stout to hand a small pulley change. Also I had some tire and rim questions but ill search first and see what I come up with before I go asking to many questions and start pissing people off. Thanks for you time guys. I am loving the forum so far. Tons of info. Thanks again.

Welcome to the forum..
You won't be disapointed with the automatic unless you require nothing but a manual, although it is automatic it is a good one.. launching is not that easy as the car has a very lower center of gravity, but you can get it down.. our stock front tires are 225, i have seen people fit 235s as well, but I am sure you can go wider if you really wanted to.. our rears are 255s stock.. I am not sure what you mean by fuel system, but the only person I know that has had an issue with running lean is someone that used 192mm pulleys with upgraded headers.. our stock pulley is 155.. at 192 it is around 24 psi...
coming from an SRT-4 I don't see why you would not be totaly amazed with the crossfire it is a major upgrade...
