We only ran for about 1/4 mile or so. It gets even better though. He was running NOS. I had my window down, and could hear him hitting it the whole time. I was blown away by it. I never in a million years thought that little Ninja Turtle on steriods wouldn't beat the pants off of me. I had a grin from ear to ear. I wish I had my Camera at that moment, because I was like HOLY SH**. "No way that just happend"

But any way, I understand and I agree with what your saying. However we don't have any real stats on this cars performance at all. Its not like a 96 Camero were there is a boat load of information, and has a history behind it. This car kind of was born yesterday, so lets wait and see what she can do. But bottom line is all this is strange to me as well as to all of you. I really did not believe in my heart that this mod. would effect the cars performance this much. I think it is actually really cool, and kind of reminds me of a Power Stroker engine.
Saskins,
I don't know. You would get beaten badly by an SRT-4. It wouldn't be close, even with a driver who wasn't very good. It runs a 5.3 0-60 stock. As for the NOS, you can't exactly hear if someone is using it, and if he was, he could be the worst driver in the world and it wouldn't even be close. You were probably hearing the turbo... He must not have been trying very hard, if at all. I think Chrysler might have made a mistake and dropped an SRT-6 motor in your car or something. Chrysler should take your intake and use that instead of the supercharger in the SRT-6, cut the price premium in half, and make a huge profit.
