Had my car finished up at Macedo Motorsports (Powerhouse Performance) today. Stock motor car. Did a few small upgrades
3 1/2 pulley (saw right at 10lbs of boost)
RSI Billet fuel rails
2nd in tank Walboro pump that is boost activated (saw 70psi under full boost)
It has really come a long...
Anyone with an SCT tuned Paxton car (and otherwise pretty much stock or few mods) running the paxton 3.5" blower pulley? I am guessing it makes 9-10lbs of boost instead of 7-8lbs on an otherwise stock car. Just trying to gauge people's experience with it.
Paxton says they have shipped a...
Other than the RB1, which I do have already, what is the best fitting Nav radio that has the "most" features?
I would like to avoid modifying the dash if at all possible. That is why I went with the RB1 a few years ago.
I just picked up a 2014 Wrangler though with the upgraded MyGig radio...
Are there any headers that will bolt up to the stock exhaust system? I have already removed both cats on each side with a custom downpipe for that cat section. Car sounds real good with the stock mufflers and no cats at all and the heat totally went away. So I want to leave that entire...
Not sure if anyone else with a 03' and newer vert has thought about this, or even if it can be done, but since the lock is electrically released, would there be a way to add some type of electrically powered actuators to the trunk area/decklid to be able to remotely lift and close the trunk, say...
Well thanks to all of Nine Ball's (Tony) stories and videos just driving me crazy, I took the first step to salvation and I dumped the paxton fuel setup and now have my have my paxton Gen 3 tuned with the new injectors, 2 bar MAP, new fuel pump and the SCT. The car put down 718rwhp and 655rwtq...
Stock block C7's running 9's in the 1/4 mile and now this stupid car runs a 7m8sec lap. I mean what the hell is going on? I really hope SRT is seeing this stuff.
Don't get me wrong this performance one upmanship is great with the manufacturers, but I hope SRT decides to get in the fight at...
These freakin' cars only started selling a few months ago and they are in the 9’s already jeez.......... Heads/cam/headers/torque converter/150 shot/stock rims with dragradials.
That’s only like $4-5K in total mods. I thought the GTR's were quick (which they are), but it takes some fairly...
I am looking to be able to cycle the windows up and down on an 06' when I use my enclosed car trailer. I know some of the GM vehicles have a Window Valet by Top Down Technologies that they use, but the company does not make one for Dodge vehicles.
I figure the only way I would be able to do it...
Looks pretty nice. On e-bay of all places......

I can now (unfortunately)say I was right in my original assessment of the Gen V back in April when theyfirst unveiled the specs, saying that it was a huge letdown.
Minimal performance improvements over a Gen IV and the aesthetics and interior are certainly not worth $45K+ more...... as tested...
Okay even though I do not particularly like the overall styling (too soft no more "in your face" edginess) maybe the car will look better in person and maybe they (better have) underrated the hp.
I will wait until the car gets some (good) tracktimes under it's belt (no Car and Driver times...
Not only is it ugly (they tried to make it too pretty and ruined the overall look) but the power is a huge let down. Not to mention I am sure it will be near impossible to (affordably) twin turbo or supercharge it even though it has a forged motor. Probably going to be overpriced as well...

I was reading an interesting article about using a wastegate (like the turbo guys) do to control the amount of boost a centrifugal supercharger can make. This way you can go down to a smaller pulley which will allow the boost to build much quicker but use the wastegate to control the overall...
Anyone install the Mopar race exhaust and then just put straight pipes on instead of the Borla mufflers that come with the kit? I assume it would be crazy loud, but just wondering how bad (loud) it would actually be. Would it even sound good (mean)? I put the race exhaust on as is, and really...
Was driving home from breakfast with the wife this morning and was sitting at a light on Colonial drive and about 3 cars in front of me I see a new yellow vette up in front of me. There was another car next to them and the people in that car were talking to the passenger in the vette. A few...
Have any of you supercharged your SRT-10 right off the bat? Less than 15-30 miles on the odometer. I ask because I am wondering if there is any issue with running the car on a dyno with a blower without any real break in period?
Anyone have this installed on their SRT? Picking up a black one soon and my last one seemed to get rock chips in the paint almost everytime I drove it and especially if I did a few higher speed runs? Just wondering if it was worth it and how invisible it was.
