Well, new rear tires (as I've done every spring after each previous 12,000 kilometer summer...not ideal wear)

I don't know yet. I may be going with a meth kit, the SLP underdrive pulley/balancer, and widened rims with 305 Nitto's for the street.

Trev, I dig your desire, totally, but wouldn't it be better to find a previously enjoyed R/T, man?
Hell, it'd prolly be less expensive in the long run and give ya warranty (maybe even better seats if it's got the SRT pkg.)

I agree with Joe man...I think you may just get a better deal and far less energy expended and stress by first finding work, saving, taking the Charger in for a trade on an RT or SRT. Brian (BJB) just bought a used Jeep SRT8 for like 28G's. Not shabby at all.

I am keeping this car...I had a short run in another....so I dont think that as my first car. This is my first car after 33,000 I want to keep it, think back...wouldnt you like to have it back?
And as of now the challenger 6 spd. SRT will be my new car.....If the lease program comes back.

Like I said, either way....im keeping the car
If its a 3.5 then thats fine because its done its job and hasnt quite.
If the blocks fall into place, then it will be a stage 3 5.7 with a bottle.

Trev...I don't think you've quite thought everything through on this. A stage 3 5.7 and bottle aren't going to work well with the rest of the 3.5 drivetrain IMO. I agree with the others and think its better to just sell the 3.5 and get a used R/T or SRT. Personnally I don't see this happening even though I know you would like it to.

I want to get mine ready for next spring, by then I want to have new R1 disc brakes and pads & Bwoody springs, that's it.
I'm also thinking of electric cutouts... I miss the cutout that I had on the 5.7L, I loved opening it up the track.

With your setup I would love to hear the Corsa on it.
I have basically nothing done to mine and the sound is bad ass.
I really want F/I

I know brutha, I know, that's why I didn't post in your thread, I didn't want to rub it in. I think this was one of the first things we ever discussed when we first met up way back on the OC, haha! Only thing bout the Corsa is it's expensive, I totally understand, no worries brutha, you'll get it soon enough (the exhaust that is, haha)

So would I Tony...hey, you want to make a trade?LOL Ya, like that would ever happen!!! F/I is only a call away to a vendor...then you'll have to pay for it for the next couple of years.Hehehe We'll see how Stevo's car runs after he gets the Vortech on his.
