Encouraging, isn't it Max? With each passing year, our forum becomes warmer and warmer as our car become cheaper and cheaper. I saw a SRT-6 Vert on a sub-prime gravel car lot the other day... Willing to bet that car has 10W-30 in it.

Jigg has figured out that IATs don't affect the SRT-6, contrary to what our resident racers have learned over the years. He could have saved HDDP, Les, Rudy, 32krazy and so many other racers so much time (and money!!!)

I thought of a money saving tip -- Since the intake temps are so meaningless, simply bolt two filters onto each side of the Y-pipe. Then you can save an additional $50 on the extra tubing and put that towards gas. No sense spending $$$ on a meth kit for a precious few horses, especially since IAT's don't matter. I'm sure the supercharger would be nice and loud, too. Noise = power.

To help you save money while driving your premium GT coupe, one gentleman on here found oil filters on eBay for $8.50 (!!!) and this will save you ~$3 over the big corporate stores. Those savings will almost buy you half a quart of 0W-40 (you will need another 16 half-quarts though, feels bad man). Luckily, Mobil-1 decides to cut their greed a few times a year, and offers the oil on sale (although this sometimes means you'd be wise to buy in bulk -- some say that's a big no-no, as you never know what the future holds).

If you can figure out a system that allows you to use all of the extra horsepower but still be gentle on the rear tires (expensive!!!) then you will have struck gold.

Happy modding,
