What's up folks? New booty to IA here. I got some SRT-4 buddies who are here so I'm checking out this place. I also met some IA members in the past and they were pretty cool. Nice to be here. :goodjob:

welcome what ya got in the SRT

[Kalifornia087]

Welcome, any mods?

[Member31410]

Thanks for the warm welcome folks. As of right now, this is what I have:

Mopar Stage 3 with toys
AIS FMIC
LFS 60 mm TB
ported intake manifold
Maxxfab S3 O2 housing
Maxxfab DP w/ cat
Mopar exhaust
Mopar drop in air filter + wires
Maddog STS

I ran a 12.7 and a 12.8 on the last day at Commerce. Curious as to why my times are slower compared to other Stage 3 cars and to why my trap speed was low (112 mph), I did a boost leak test and found out I was leaking boost. That means theoretically I should do better when those leaks are taken cared of http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/goodjob.gif . Lazy me just finally tightened some clamps on the car earlier before the rain came and got 2 psi more boost (holding 21 psi now, 19 psi yesterday) so I'm heading in the right direction. As for how much boost I spiked, I didn't pay attention. The car will be seeing a dyno sometime this month when the boost leaks are all gone. http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Hmm... I think that makes you the fastest... or at least potential to be the fastest SRT-4 on this site... I just hope that you don't share the same Evo/STi hatred that a lot of other Neon drivers have. =]

Pour in a few gallons of C16 and flip the HOM switch, I'm sure you'll pull some better times... and get a pair of drag radials or slicks.

[efman]

do you have any car pics ? welcome

[Member31410]

ct9a gsr, no, no hatred for anyone just because of what they drive. All the folks I have met (Commerce, Silver Dollar, meets, etc...) after getting my car have been cool as hell http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/goodjob.gif. No C16 or leaded gas for me as I'm running a cat. Gotta keep them tree huggers happy.... well maybe for now, that is http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif. I might be switching to a 3" catless side exit for weight reduction so who knows. The runs that I posted, I was running on slicks. http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/redface.gif 1.9 60' on both runs.

You didn't happen to spring a little leak on your car at Commerce did you http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif? I believe it was on the last day at Commerce? Huh? http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/loco.gif If so, I was on the left lane beside yours about 2-4 cars back. The blue SRT-4 that won the Showdown class at the last Import Showdown, he was there with me too that night. Us and that black SRT-4 w/black wheels, we seemed to be the regular SRT-4's at Commerce toward the end of the year. Anyways, he had told me that the blue Evo was a friend of his and it had some honorable mentions similar to his http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif. The blue SRT-4 ended up breaking during his second run though. http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

efman, sorry, no car pics. It looks like any other red SRT-4 out there but with a big AIS FMIC and Mopar/Borla exhaust tips sticking out the rear.

My driving sucks ass.http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/lmfao.gifThis is my first manual tranny so I'm still learning as I go. ~350 whp and ~360 wtq (estimated) do make quite of a distraction in the learning process but I'm loving it. http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/wink.gif I'm not going to try to be the fastest out anywhere or be the most this or that (most HP... oooh http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/blah.gif ) but if it does happen, it is what it is. Until then, another SRT-4 here said he ran a 12.2 with stock turbo no nitrous Stage 2 w/o toys so I am not the fastest SRT-4 here yet. http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Welcome my friend

[Kid Battle]

Hello and welcome

[Stormhammer]

yo man - curious - were you at the Landmark Dodge show @ the dragstrip and running the SRT-4 with the slicks?

welcome aboard matey

[Member31410]

No, that wasn't me. I only raced at Commerce during Fast Friday's with the exception of one test and tune at Silver Dollar.

BTW, I just remembered that there is a video with my car in it that was filmed during a meet if anyone wants to look. It's nothing special but here (http://phobia.net/~snapb1/images/Evo/meetDec17.wmv) is the vid. My car doesn't come into the video until around four minutes into it and there after. The first SRT-4 is fellow IA member Spike. I was running with HOM on http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/wink.gif and boost leak on http://forums.importatlanta.com/images/smilies/mad.gif.

[haccord91lx]

as i have learned in modding cars at school bigger blow off valves act as a leak in turbo also bigger doesnt mean better or louder doesnt mean better so check your blow off valve i wouldnt do anything after market unless u gett bigger piping and also welcome

[Member31410]

I'm running the Mopar BOV. It's not a real BOV but just a ricey noise maker aluminum plate. I won't know if I have any leaks from there until I make me another boost leak tester. The last boost leak tester I made broke apart after I tightened the clamps on the piping resulting in more boost holding.
