For those who dont know..Ralph is a very experience racer. Which in my opinion is pretty cool. How many suits at the other OEMS have had hundreds of hours of seat time in real world racing?

and im ok with that! Looks better than the turd ass Toyota future concept of whatever that hunk of non-flowing nonsense was.

My Charger has this issue. Its never been of much concern to me. Basically when you start it, car cranks over, let off the key, and it doesnt click all the way back into "run"..so the car is non responsive until you click it back a little more. Its more of a very light annoyance than anything.

Maybe mine didnt work. I purchased mine used with like 40K miles on it. But I could not tell a difference between modes. I did have the water pump go out, it was a pretty healthy repair job. I had a performance clutch put in (dont remember the details) and shortly after the transmission started to go out. I again dont…

So is this basically like the "pot metal" of the future?

neither did I.

They had electronic controlled adjustable suspension. All it really did was stiffen the dampers electronically in "sport" mode. It didnt have a major effect on driving dynamics. Was it real? Yes. Was it a gimmick? Yes.

I had a 94 Stealth Twin turbo (same car in large part). It was AWESOME. I love love loved it. Cranked the boost up to like 22psi and it SCREAMED. Id snatch one up today if i could find one unmolested in decent shape.

about $2k in bushings/sways/coilovers and this thing will rape many in its path

Even worse than a over 500hp factory car..is a over 500hp car that has been mod'd to that. Its a damn job just driving down the street.

this impresses me way more than any ken block video

Back in 2009 I bought a brand new Dodge Challenger. My first ever new car. I only put like $2000 down. I was able to get it for about $2k under invoice. At the time Dodge was offering 0% for 48 months on loans. A year later, my wife (ex) lost her job and I was forced to get rid of it. I sold it for $2000 more than I…

is it turbo?

this is really the simplest way to put it. And generally, horsepower takes over after 5250rpm..which is where you see TQ and HP cross on dyno charts.

ps- I know that matters 0% to you, him or anything related to this post. But its cool he has a series

i really like this guy. Never really followed the drift world but saw the video posted on here last week on his garage. He seems like a really cool dude.

I usually scan through your articles. Although they arent always of much interest to me or out of my area of brain function; I gotta say. Your articles are insanely well written and thorough. Great job!

no different than any other boosted factory car. Just bigger displacement so each psi produces more power.

Having owned 4 SRT's..I gotta say. Regardless of what the actual power is when they come out..its gonna be at least 707. They likely tested up to 800+ to see how much more it has in it, knowing the customer will likely try to push it further than stock. The new system runs on MAF..which is great news. Because previous…

$8k for a 98 odyssey? Maybe in 1999. Carack pipe!
