But then you just have a stock SRT ... It isn't all about speed. I thnk that something that is fun to play with and that can stand out is much more impressive (unless you are just trying to say you have the lowest number on the clock).

I got the car with under 6k miles and in perfect condition for $19k out the door (including all tax, tags, fees, and 6 oil changes). They are selling crossfires with more miles and poorer condition for quite a bit more than that, and the SRTs I have seen have significantly more miles on them.

I wouldn't consider it too expensive. If you take off the brakes, it is about $2,500 total. The brakes are definitely pricey, but would be nice to have a few months down the road.

For a couple hundred, it seems like a fun toy to have. (if nothing else just to change the color of the light! )

That was the whole point of that one, and cheaper than a MagnaFlow system.

 

Of your list, the dual Needswings CAI will be a good upgrade along with the larger throttle body (just the throttle body, no need for the MAF sensor or housing as long as you do the upgrade together with the CAI which would make the most sense.. do get the O ring though), though the larger filters probably aren't needed since you'll have more air than your car will be able to do anything with...

I second the sentiments on the brakes... if you find a kickass deal somewhere then that's cool but you probably won't need to go too crazy since you won't be making SRT levels of power or anything. In fact, a nice set of slotted/drilled rotors and better pads would probably work fine. Again, I can appreciate wanting to go all out but at most I would say get some SRT brakes when someone else upgrades or wait for a smoking deal on the other brands... Personally, I am not going to touch my brakes until I upgrade my suspension/wheels/tires and get nice and low

And as others have said, the eurocharge tune comes with the cable already

 

I see some posts a couple years ago about a drop in supercharger for the N/A, but all links are dead now, and cannot find anything of the like. Is there something like that out there?

 

Kleeman used to have a SC option for the NA m112 but they don't provide it anymore. The cost was pretty rediculous and the power was still not SRT level. If you search for kleeman you can find all the info on it. It's just a tease at this point though, even if it still existed you could basically just buy a second crossfire (srt) for around the same cost.

Current day, NA v8 swap is your most economical option beside getting an SRT if you want power. Mating to a stick has not been done stateside that I am aware of though but apparently they have figured it out in Germany.

 

You might be referring to some of the gimicky fans that attach to your intake which pretty much do nothing good.. there's no easy HP unfortunately

 

Everything on their site looks to have ridiculous prices on it.

 

IMO these things do nothing for the performance aspect but you can have quite a difference in the definition of performance than what I have.

 

Yea, but each has its reason.
-Tint is so the car isn't so hot in the Florida sun
-Oil catch helps keep the engine cleaner
-Muffler is just to sound better
-Some people swear by the sprint booster, if nothing else it is a button to play with.

 

Higher amounts of $ have been spent everywhere for the 'touchy-feely' variations of the loose definition of 'performance' enhancements. BTW the sprint booster only makes the pedal travel output faster, it does nothing else, it is just a sensation-al reaction to the more sensitive pedal. And of course the mods peeps do are entirely personal and not up for anyone else's justifications/criticisms.

 

Here's your best bang for the buck mods . . . See if you can do an even trade / Your 2008 coupe for this 2005 SRT6 coupe . . . GOOD LUCK

If I had one of these, I would be in jail, or depending on self propelled transportation in very short order. See, having a NA XF, I know it's limitations. I like it very much, but I know it's not the fastest horse in the stable. I would definitely be in trouble with an SRT6. And I'm 60.

 

Yeah while your at it why think small.. you can try for an even trade...



Horsepower: 1,200

 

On the other hand, a good SRT6 with good shoes will out corner that 2 ton behemoth by quite a bit and they go for 2,285,000 LESS

 

And how much straitaway to be passed and history in the six? And what is the skid pad number on the six.. 1g?

The all-wheel-drive system keeps the rear end stable, but it will come around if you aren't careful. Giant run-flat Michelin tires—P265/680ZR-500A up front and 365/710ZR-540A at the rear—provide excellent grip on dry and wet driving surfaces. And, by the way, a set of these goes for $35,000. The suspension—upper and lower A-arms front and rear—features titanium springs that help provide excellent stability and an even ride. If the Veyron has a weakness, it's through quick left/right transitions, where its mass becomes its nemesis. Still, the car managed to run through our slalom in a more-than-respectable 69.6 mph. Around the skidpad, the car has few equals as it registered a neck-wrenching 0.99g.
Weight is hardly an issue as the car sprints to 60 mph in a scary-fast 2.5 seconds, - See more at:

I would think with some spacers for a bit wider stance and over sized rubber it would pull 1.01 to 1.02 and yes the Veyron does OK on the skidpad but as it says transitions are it's weakness which seems to be the roads I drive on. None of them go in a circle. The CF's are very nimble. Also, I couldn"t afford more than 1 Bugatti. LOL

 

Your up on me then.. second note on the house just for a change of tires! LOL.

 

Maybe we should just focus on what we have and are dealing with instead of shoulda coulda wishes.. IE.. thread back on track kinda thing..
