Most definitely cast.
From what I observed during that time period the spokes broke at the hub during hard cornering with slicks, though no slicks in the picture above.
I used it to hold an iPhone 7 Plus this weekend going to and from CAAP, about 600 mile round trip. Worked great just be careful not to push it on too hard so you don't break a vent fin.
You installed a Roe Supercharger and are going to blame Dodge if the engine is damaged? You have a 19 year old car and wonder if it's still under warranty?
Eliminating the rear muffler, H/X pipe or not, will cause significant drone. Some hate it more than others. For me not a worthwhile trade.
A used Corsa 2.5" cat back is an economical and drone-less alternative.
It works very well and I've had it since 2002 or so. Installation instructions were OK but some of the wire colors they said to splice into were wrong. I hope by now there are long since corrected but it's worth double checking against the service manual. Just don't test the clutch disconnect...
Yup - currently all stock but for:
Smooth Tubes
OEM 2000+ oil pan
98+ OEM shorty exhaust manifolds
2.5" Corsa cat back modified with OEM exhaust tips
Tom's 40mm rear brake calipers
Snake Oyl cruise control
Entire exhaust system from manifolds to rear muffs including cats are plasma coated with...
Thanks Dan, that's impressive. No emissions issues here in Indy thankfully. Ultimately I'll probably do everything but the cam, but still excited to see what the heads, rockers and tune do for starters. Comp ratio is still a bit of a mystery and will remain so until I take off my stock heads...
Thanks John -
I went the aluminum flywheel route years ago and felt no SOP difference except that it annoyingly chattered a bit. When I did my rear main seal I reverted to stock and sold it. Had to change the pinion bearing in the rear and decided to keep the 3.08's as I like the loafing 6th...
I'll be betting with you not against you but regardless an impressive number with stock cats
Weather's not as nice but much more car friendly government in Indiana
Camfab - I just checked out your link. You did Stryker heads, cam, headers and a tune with stock cats and produced 585 RWHP?
Since you had hi flow cats 2,000 miles prior, why did you revert to stock cats?
Fascinating...
In the end and as cash flow allows, I'll might end up with all of the above anyway. My spare ECU re-programming will be a compromise between with and without headers so post heads & rockers I'll be able to just change the headers and compare, then the high flow cats and compare.
Where I'm not...
Decided to go headerless at first, dyno then decide if the added investment is worth it. Not logical for maximum power and more work but also more fun for me as I enjoy finding the true value of each mod.
Thanks for the comments.
