It is the SAME CAR! The SRT has the same radiator mounts the same crank the same Blaw Blaw Blaw. It must just be how people look and discribe things that seem to make them sound so different. Look up the differences between the Standard and SRT models at the Chrysler site.
Anytime you change the shape of a round tube you restrict air flow. Has anyone out there heard of a "Plasma Cutter"? Cuts trough that sheet metel like butter and leaves a beutiful edge. Also on a system like this or mine being doublot Twin as I like to call mine you can have as much as 50% blockage on one side and still be equal to the 3" intake.
