SRT Performance List
I've been working on a list of current mods for the SRT-6 and this is what I've assembled to date. If anyone has items and a link to that item I'll add it to the list. Just click on the link below.
I've also made a small write-up about each catagory that should help all the newer members as well as a few regulars. Some of the catagories also have a bit of my opinion in them, but I also tried to keep my opinion somewhat netural too. This list is only the start of what I feel is going to be available for our Crossfire's in the very near future.
I hope this helps everyone in some way or another.

Nice Job Toy!!
I just joined SrtConnections Forum. It will be fun to read up on the "other" SRT's out there as the SRT-6 is pretty much an exclusive car club now.

yes i understand that, im askign if that now with cooler intake manifolds do you notice any difference with the car, ie.. can u touch the mani's after a hard run without burning your hand?

and we do have SRT specific headers, they should be released shortly...

yes, you can feel a difference with the heat transfer because of the spacers...if you touch the supercharger for a split second it almost burns you, with the spacers you can keep your hand there noticeably longer...

then i appologise, i read a thread a while back where someone said they called you about them and was told it was a misprint

intake->throttle body->supercharger->intercooler->y-splitter->intake air plenums(these are what the spacers go under, as these sit on top of the runners that are attached to the supercharger which obviously get very hot and then heat up the air intake plenums)->our spacers->runners attached to the supercharger going into the head...
does it make sense now?
ok, just went and looked, how thick are the spacers? 1/4"-3/8"? when the manifolds are lifted up further then oem does the factory air distribution pipe line up still?

please dont get me wrong, i see the theory of keeping cooler intake manifolds so the air traveling thru them does not get heated up as much. but for the cooling effects to be transferred backwards 3 steps im not seeing. have you ever installed a spacer setup on just one side and then took the car to get them warmed up and shot each intake manifold with a laser thermometer to see the difference?

also, as a side note, we are also doing the spacers that go under the supercharger runners, that way we can isolate the whole system...they will be ready by the end of the week.

The spacers won't totally eliminate heat soak, but they will prolong it.
The AMG V8 folks on the MB forum posted some great info on the EVOsport spacers.
