WOW...you did keep that quiet Rudy

I know Darticus is real and have communicated with him a few times. He is just a newbie trying to figure things out.

Darticus, looking at your age (I am slightly senior to you) I would guess you finally got that sports car you have been wanting. My advice, unless you want to race competetively and you are pleased with the overall performance of your new toy, don't worry about the supercharger and just enjoy owning one of the best kept secrets on the road.

I don't know if you have a stick or automatic but the SRT6 only comes with an automatic. Many on this forum will forgo the SRT6 just for that reason. I think some guy that drives a roadster with a stick just might agree with that. LOL

 

A few people knew but yeah, not something I was gonna write home to mom about. LOL

 

Really sorry if you think I'm a spy or something. I bought my car in August and it sits in the garage out of the snow. Just asking questions that I really don't know answers to. I have talked to you guys in the past about grills and adding the piezo siren to my Crossfire. So I'm a real person. Don't want to add a SC but wanted to know whats up. I will try to look elsewhere if I sound like an ***. If I asked these questions before I bought maybe I would have bought a different car but I don't think so. Thanks for your help. Ron

 

Ron, dont get to put off by these guys..... this is a pretty good bunch of guys (and gals)..... some get a little thin skinned at times....some have a WHACKO sense of humor.... just read what interests you, ask questions and enjoy. In general, most of your questions have probably been asked and discussed multiple time on here somewhere. The search function is good but you may have to phrase multiple ways or use different key words to find what you are looking for. I feel sorry for you guys that cant drive your cars all the time.

 

Hey Darticus.... The bottom line is that hopefully all of your questions were answered. You may have had to read through a couple of extra posts to get to the answers, but it is all in good fun. None of the jabs were directed at you as much as leery of a certain practical jokester on this forum.

You should never hesitate to ask any question on here. Just remember to not take things too seriously. Many of us have a warped sense of humor, but it is never meant to demean anyone.

 

well im glad it all worked out in the end! do you miss the stick?

 

Every day...Until I get on the gas!

 

Glad the secret is finally out! Just wish I could of gotten the car for my Supercharged Chevy V8 Project!
If someone else decides to supercharge (blow up) their NA let me know. I'll take the car off of yer hands once yer done!

 

That would be me. I have one of each. A roadster with a stick and an SRT6 coupe, with a sorta stick.

The SRT is sitting in the garage (wife's car). The roadster gets driven every day I can. Top down when over 53* F and at redline. All the way to work. The long way if I can have the time.

My doctor has suggested drugs to alleviate my perma grin. I tell him I'm OKAY!

Enjoy your new ride. A unique thing of beauty that will out manuvre 95% of the vehicles on the road today. Most folks who see it will be wishing they were sittin' in it.

And that is the reality in Franc's world.

The roadster with a stick

The way it should be!

 

Has this forum died off

 

UHHH . . . like you're posting on a 5 year old thread!

 

What are all the costs to properly modify a NA Crossfire with 215 HP to a 350HP SRT???

 

Simply, cost prohibitive. Do a search on google and read all the posts from this forum here.

I can sell you a non blownup NA.
