IMO it is harder to get into the gates than the stock shifter. This is my first aftermarket shifter so I don't really have anything to compare it to. I need to drive a car with an aftermarket shifter and check the difference.

Good video. I wonder how many lengths you would have put on him in a longer race?

That neon should be able to keep up with him past 150 pretty well I would think, considering the gearing.

At 150 it's also about raw hp and aerodynamics. Believe it or not the SRT-4 has a decent CD but I dont think a stock turbo'd SRT-4 will have the power to keep up with even a lightly modded 03-04 Cobra at that speed.

On the other hand, I will be in the Eden area tomorrow just outside of Greensboro during the day. I'd be happy to run ya.

I'll run you but I am 100% sure that you will hand me my ***! Seeing how your car traps 12+ mph faster than my car.

That's because the SRT4 was loud as hell.

Race, order a pulley.. race, do exhaust, race.. etc.. It'd be interesting to see how a few hundred bucks affects the results, and exactly how much it gains.

Peace,

Don't waste your time on that Brandon. It's been done already. Just get that KB.

No fear of that happening. The KB is my next mod! I wonder if anyone else on this board has or is getting a KB?
