-well tonight i just got back from meeting killer_siller at a car gathering you can say to buy his rc intercooler. well after an interesting night i was heading home on the highway when i saw what appeared to be a neon ahead. as i got closer and saw the duels and high wing i knew it was an srt4.
-i pull up next to him and give him the thumbs up b/c it was a nice clean looking car, plus one of my close buddies has one that keeps up with a viper, no joke, so i give those cars respect.
-anyway this was the first time i really ever instigated a race. i knew i would get my ass kicked so i decided what the hell. he gave me a few "phhh phhh phhh" to try and scare me away i think but i just dropped it into 4th and waited for him to hit it.
-we were going about 70mph and when we went i pulled on him through my whole 4th gear, by the time i was about to hit redline in 4th he was at my back bumper. sad thing is that my trans did not want to go into 5th at that high of rpm so i let off and he flies past me.
-we exit the highway and stop at a gas station to chat. his car is stock with mopar exhaust and bov and intake. he also said that he went from 5th gear and downshifted after he realized that he wasnt reeling me in, needless to say, i suprised him.
-oh well, i never knew my car had some fight in it. im kind of proud for the work i have accomplished from when i first had it -> to when it got totalled-> to now...
- i know people will ask so here it is: 3" aussie d/p, 3" ape midpipe (no cat), 3" ssac twin tip catback, straight intake, bkr6es plugs (one step colder for us 165ers), upgraded heat exchanger, constant pump mod, hood washer mod (i think it helps), twin-entry exhaust mani, twin-entry ct26, no fuel cut, wastegate boost w/ tvis enabled, @ about 13psi.....
i still have to put on the ct27, rc intercooler, devils own water injection, dayton intercooler pump, so i might still have some room for improvement.......
