the SL55 intake may show similar numbers on a dyno, but on the road with cold air ramming straight into the filter, the NW takes the cake.
I still remember when members were saying the SRT6 had no use for a dual intake - NW had done all the extensive testing and discovered there were no gains to be had with a dual......
Anyway - a real true event to test our cars would start this Thursday - but there's not enough time (even for me and I've dreaming about it) so perhaps this September you can plan ahead to make it out to Nevada for some open road racing.
The true test of car and driver takes more then 1/4 mile and 12 seconds
How about 90 miles of non stop open racing? The Silver State Classic in Nevada allows you (after your first event) to run wide-a$$ open for 90 miles. Now that, forum members, is a true test of car and driver (and your mods). But you'll need a harness and roll cage (and other safety equipment) after your first event.
For the first time event racers - you're limited to average speed of 110 MPH with a tech speed (meaning peak speed you can go on the course) of a 124MPH. That means if you don't care about placing in your classs, that's the car and driver that maintains the closest average speed of 110MPH, or around 50 minutes of semi-hard driving - you can still kick it up and cruise the entire course at 124MPH without penalty. (but watch out for the technical section - you know - where you have to brake and turn)
Plus has an added bonus they run a High Noon Shoot-Out - a timed standing mile event. Have you taken your SRT6 up to 169+ MPH. It's a gas - did it over 15 times in 2 1/2 days. I'll take that over chasing .09 sec anytime.
Just an added event for a great weekend. See you in September?
