Props on the intake work, looks good so far. I guess these cars are built pretty tough and able to take abuse from multiple launches/passes, much like the Srt-4s to some degree?

 

they seem pretty bullet proof so far.

We know the tranny will take 500+

 

thank you, so far so good on tracking the car. i have no fear of the motor, its a stout setup proven on the benz's. its the dinky rear axles that scare me even thought i haven't heard of anyone snapping them yet.

 

Can't wait to see this thing out there. I'll have to get up to Milan one of these weekends to get some baseline numbers with the Renntech stuff. Would love to see how your intake would improve my times.

 

how close are you from toledo? or from the ohio/mich border at i75 more specifically?

 

I live about 15 minutes from the border. I'm in Delta, Ohio which is about 20 minutes West of Toledo. US-23 is about 15 minutes from my house.

 

Hey guys i'm new here, i have been running 13.364 at 106.26 bone stock, i was wondering if you have any launch techniques i can use...if so let me know thanks.

 

I was thinking of getting new k&n's and maybe they sl55 intake, but I might just wait for this to come out. I wonder how it would improve on my best of 13.06 @ 109 mph bone stock time

Congrats on hitting 12's! You still on the continentals? I hope to pick up a new set of rears just before I go back to the track next month.

 

aim me please when you get back online.

 

NeedsWings -
Just a reminder, I plan on storing my car after 10/1. Any updates?

 

Man, this is an awesome upgrade! What kind of price point are we looking at? Intake + pulley + tune = low 12's?

 

stuffs at the powdercoater now, let me know how this coming week looks for you and we can try one on.

 

Unrelated... but why are you storing your car for the winter so early? I would think you'd be safe till November at least...

Oh, and I'll take his, as it looks like he won't be needing it anytime soon...

 

OK. I may be able to get down there on 9/29 or 9/30 (unless something comes up).

It is not uncommon for people to store their 'summer' rides from 10/1 to 5/1 in this neck of the woods. It's not set in stone, but a tentative schedule. It starts getting pretty cold up here around the middle of October.

 

Hmm, didn't realize it got that bad up there that quick. Doesn't get COLD done here to about the middle of December. I see your point. I would store mine in the winter as well if I had room for it and another nice car to drive (I have standards to maintain, so a beater simply won't do).

 

Yep, just moved up here last year from West Virginia - big difference to say the least.
Summers - I drive the 4Runner mostly (to/from work) w/dashes of the SRT6. Wife drives the Accord.
Winters - SRT6 in hibernation. I drive the Accord, wife drives the 4Runner (c/o 4WD, plus my commute is a whopping 12 miles round trip).

 

NeedsWings - any updates?

 

do you guys think its possible with pulleys and intake and tune to get consistent sub 12.5 and keep the car reliable as a daily driver?

 

You will also need an ecu tune as well... than you should be hitting those numbers... a C32 has done 12.38 with just those upgrades + exhaust... and the c32 weighs... 500 pounds more...

This is providing you have srt-6 and providing you have access to a good track... and you dont live in high humidity, heat, altitude zones...

 

any idea when a more reasonable price kit will be out and maybe bump boost 5 psi as opposed to the 3 everyone else does? i know we are all waiting for needswings any word for any other companies developing something?
