:( FD got pwn3d by a SRT-4

I was cruising down going home, and all of a sudden, this SRT-4 came up from behind me blowin' his BOV's... so i rev'ed a little, and down shifted to second, and i assume he did. But i had no chance in catching up. He smoked me!

What i have:
PFC, Steve Kan Tuned 283RWHP
Blitz Intercooler, stock twins, Magnaflow Exhaust, Downpipe

what he has:
Mopar? stage 3

Well a stage 3 SRT is a seriously fast car, especially from a roll. Were you two ever even side by side?

Yeah, the stage 3 SRT is pretty fast in a stright line. Take one on at a tight road corse, like auto-x they dont stand a chance, unless you want to give them extra points for all the 3-wheel salutes the SRT will give around every corner.

My friend has a 400fwp srt4, runs mid 12's. Pretty quick, but upgrade to a full exhaust and turn the boost up to 14 psi and should be a different ball game

How much boost are you running? I have a similar setup, but I'm also running a 3" cat.

Like someone mentioned, stage 3 srt4's are fast.

That "race" seemed about right.

You might not have been able to catch up to him on a straight line however you did not get 'owned'.

Srt-4 owners get owned every time they climb into their Neon and drive around

Yeah, what he said. Neon's are weak cars. The 7 is classy.

1.) i guess the ignorance about "it still a neon" will never die out. they are fast
cars out of the box. never under estimate those cars.
and..
2.) if you need a nice car to get girls, all i have to say is, "wow, that really ******* sucks for you."

but i don't think the srt-4 was at stage 3, maybe a stage 0 or 1 POSSIBLY a 2. what city was this in?

Much respect to Srt-4's.

They are some of the only people that give the FD love.

Subaru's nope
Civic wll they just dream
Supra's nope
School buses oh wait a second....

Anyways Srt-4 is fast no shame in loosing to it.

Who gives a fu** what girls dig when girls shout when I pass by I feel they are little skank tire hoes not the kinda girls I would want.......

Anyways those who own Fd's should know what i am talking about.

Gnite!

It only takes two years for that car to depreciate down to what an FD is still worth. The power is good, but the fact is Chrysler took an engine that they made for the PT Cruiser, tuned it slightly, threw it into their decade old chassis, and then marketed it toward the young people that don't have a lot of money and want to go fast(95% of whom are ricers). The car is great, and if I could muster up enough respect for that "bargain bin" sport compact then I would definitely buy one. Same engine in a NEW chassis would get my money. As it stands right now the only thing holding that car back sales wise, respect wise, and performance wise(handling & maybe weight) is the fact that they used a Neon chassis. Some people like it, and good for them because they get a cheap fast car, but most don't and those that don't will be forever jealous of its power-to-cost ratio.
