Fronts took 15 minutes each, backs about 20 minutes each. Same ride height and they do a good job of smoothing out rough surfaces. But when pushed they really stiffen up around corners and hard braking. Definitely a good mod for worn suspension, especially for about $200.

The paintless dent removal guy just finished smoothing out my out my base vert and I am a happy camper. He removed 3 from the trunk lid, 3 from the right door, 2 from the left door and 1 from the hood that was actually poking up. This guy does great work I would recommend him to anyone in the Cincinnati Metro area that needs his services. His name is Michael Harris and his web page is www.irepairdents.com. He eyeballed the Crossfire about 16 months ago when he repaired some hail damage on a lease car I was about to turn in and gave me an estimate of $100.00. 16 months later he honored that estimate which I thought was pretty cool.

Just received my Crossfire Duffel overnight type bag... got it off ebay for around 47.00.. appears to be very durable.. the paper with it said it was done under the auspices of Dim/Chrysler. I added the small decal to the Chrysler emblem...

Yes. There's noticeabley more pull especially in the mid-high end of the RPM's. I took it out for a short 5 mile jaunt and I can definitely tell a difference. I'll find out tomorrow when I'm on the highway, passing power should be improved.

For $250, it's worth it. I'm curious how it'll perform once I add the NeedsWings SCAI and 74mm throttle body, after they send me a new tune that is.

Its easy. You need a laptop with window 7 (NOT 8). You will need the OBD cable and they will email you the tune file and you run the file. Get on their website and wat check the instruction video. Not a hard thing at all.

Easy as pouring a glass of water.

1. Download software from Eurocharged
2. Connect USB/OBDII cable into laptop
3. Connect OBDII cable into car
4. Upload stock tune into laptop
5. Email stock tune to Eurocharged
6. Plug OBDII cable back into car
7. Upload new tune via laptop
8. Enjoy your new permagrin!

1 minute to download stock tune
3 minutes to upload new tune
