Fun with the SRT-4 Man, I installed a few things now on my wife's SRT-4 and cranked the boost up to 17lbs from 12lbs and LET me tell you...that little sucker flys! My wife went out on a test drive so I can set the boost where she wanted it, which was at FULL 17lbs! Anyway, she ran across an RX8 at a light and the guy took off, and she followed and put about 4 cars on the guy, then the guy wouldnt pull next to her at the light...then he creeps up and asks " How much horsepower does that car have?" She loved it! Good kill. Im loving this little car. I have my old Cobra MAC 9" filter on it, that thing wants to suck the hood off!

Yup, those little cars CAN be potent. For the most part they are not up to the performance of our cars. There are a rare few that could hand me my ***, but they only wanna roll race cause they can't launch worth a crap. Still sounds like it would be a fun daily driver. I would have to take that gay *** wing off and all badges that say srt4 or neon......that **** screams gay.

I wasn't running off at the mouth like an idiot, why don't you read before you write?? I said they CAN be potent, MOST are not up to par w/ us, and there are a FEW that could hand me my ***.
I have raced a stg2 w/ toys, said he was running higher oct. on HOM mode, turoback exhaust, and a few other mods.......needless to say, I strolled out on his *** from a 45 roll.......5-6 cars by 120

there is a couple stage 3 srt4's out here throwing down some potent #'s... pretty quick little cars for sure.
btw rx8's are slowness.. the srt4 could take one stock. good kill.

I was thinking about getting one before I saw that 98 and up z28's are waay cheaper than a srt4's im kinda a big guy so the camaro was a good choice. The only thing's I dont like about the camaro are the big doors and the long front end (im just used to small cars) but thats just me evertything else I love the car kicks major butt. Oh yea my camaro is the fisrt car I didnt need a hill to get past 130 mph

In general srt-4's run rich anyways. At least my 3 friends do. About 10.5 on the a/f gauge. They all still made good power though. One made 260whp on stage 1 with a 10.2-10.5 a/f ratio. I think their fuel return line kits help this out also.
