okay so my friend bought an SRT-4 about a month ago, and it's was his first manual car. well before i go on i should let you know that my secondary turbo is having some actuator issues (above 4500RPM i'm only running 3.4psi of boost as opposed to 10). so anyway we line up, light turns green and i rip him out of the hole. smash it into second of course to only have the beautiful feel of 3.5 psi pushing me along....at this point it was catch up for him, and by midway through third i was at his door. i wish i wish i wish i was boosting correctly.... , god damn stock twins.

Acutally I thought a stock 3rd gen vs an Neon SRT the SRT would win...

honestly i dont believe there is any fd on here that is stock. from what ive seen with my own races the fd should win. with my petty mods, my car would easily take my friends ls1 who took a srt4 on spray/ more boost. they suck off the line but damm do they catch up later on down the road.

I'd like to see some info to back this up. The SRT4 runs like low 14s and the FD mid to high 13s stock, right?



I got a friend that just bought one. Now he wants to race...I'll let you know how it goes.

yea..a stock touring automatic runs 14+. I have not seen any stock manual FDs run in the 14s.

But, either way the FD is superior to the SRT4!
