SRT-4 Jumping???

[Mx6GT91]

what about the transmission in them, you know it isn't a stock neon tranny, or maybe you don't...that's why them seem to hold 600hp and not break...

Well I forgot about that. Sorry, I'll add that also.

The main thing is that theres always going to be things half assed on cars, well new cars moslty.
Look at the MSP, its a stock Protege motor with a turbo and some tuning. I know the MSP wasnt designed to go fast in a straight line. Im sure Mazda knew that people were going to mod them. They could have at least put in beefier rods. The pistons seem to be fine in holding power.
Your intercooler pipes, intake pipes, and where your sidemounts mounted is based on my car. The only thing Mazda pushed off was a built motor. I think that money went into suspension. I love the way the MSP handles!!!
Ive been boosting anywhere from 13psi to 18psi. Thats from 106,000miles to my 152,000 I have now. I dont think any MSP can boost that much with stock internals and last. Not to mention I have the stongest tranny Mazda made. My tranny can hold over 500whp even when loaded with miles. My car has a downside also, its got a SOHC 12valve motor. Its probably the hardest pulling SOHC you'll see. hehe

Dont get my wrong, I love the MSP. I have a great time driving my friends and I wish I could drive it more often. Only when the boost is upped though. If its at stock boost Id rather drive my mods New Beetle. Its just as I said, theres always going to be things skipped/half assed. With the MSP it seems to be the motor. If your car was faster stock Im sure people would blow the SRT-4 off and go for the MSP. Im glad that the MSP was sold as a Limited Edition. SRT-4's are drivin around like Civics. Well here in FL they are, same as the WRX.

I went to check one out last night for the first time never even considered it when buying the msp. Anyway the seats were really really nice, and I liked the boost gauge and a lot of the interior except the shifter. Didn't like how long it was. I don't really like the front of the cars but the backs aren't bad, but when I started the car up that was pretty awesome. I revved it up a bit and the thing roared, but daily driving would get annoying with it being noisey.

This topic has stayed very mature for my taste, so it will stay. I love my SRT and I loved my MSP when I had it. If I had to do it all over again I would have picked my SRT. I really don't care what anyone says, the SRT is a good car. I have had less problems with it than I did my MSP. You have to sit down at look that these are to TOTALLY different cars.

The SRT goes fast, but handles like doo doo. The MSP runs 15s yet handles like its on rails. I loved my MSPs spunk and personality, one of my favorite things about the MSP was hesitation.......just kidding.

I love the warrenty dodge offers too. I have taken my car in several times, and it has a turbo upgrade. They have never given me an issue, not once. I really miss the MSP, but I do love my SRT. If it were me I wouldn't even compare the two cars because its not fair for eachother.

BTW- Just for the record, my MSP was my favorite car I ever owned.

So yeah I am all for my MSP, but one thing the SRT has that I want. SUNROOF. My last car had one and I continue to reach up on beautiful sunshiny days like today and wa la no sunroof. (argh)

Driving the MSP is way more fun (period)!

 

[RX-KEVIN]

I run most sr-t's down at the track. they hate it

 

[celdridge]

yur obviously doing SOMETHING wrong...yur talking high 13sec car compared to a 15flat car...(uhm)

I agree with him ... i dont like them ... its still just a neon ... which in my opinion (after owning 3 dodge cars) is lower than the ... its just a protege argument. The SRT looks mean as hell though. Puttin out some nice HP too, but i know how dodges work ... that thing will run like a bat out of hell for about 2 years and then rust out and fall apart.

 

[celdridge]

Wow ... thats a big f'in turbo... are you overcompensating ... haha ... just kidding ... can i have a few of those ... haha

 

[ES2k3]

Thats how it works:

wahahaha!
for sure....!
i've read somewhere that mitsu is still in business ONLY because of Evo.
without evo they would have been bankrupt a long time ago.

Thats odd, I thought the Evo was a limited produced car. Im not sure, does anyone know for sure

 

[4001]

The Evo did double its sales but I dont see how such a small number of sales could be saving the company I could be wrong. Heres a good link check it out
