SRT Q&A Session: 5-16-2007

[bigike]

I got a Transmission TSb done on my car about 8 months ago. And I hate my car now, it is not a manual shift car any more and like i said it is so bad that dont want my car anymore.

I own 2 srt's a 06' Magnum ( with the problem) and a SRT-10. Please Help, I've spent ALOT of money with y'all.

832-266-6088 Please call me, i need my car changed back!

It is only a non manual shift car at max RPM in each gear and it was in response to people complaining of shifting late and slow , hitting the rev limiter and getting a big BOOG. The only option is to get another module from a junk yard.

Great work guys! I love the car, don't get me wrong. In order to effectively compete at the track (dragstrip) with Gm, Ford and 'the others' on a level playing field, many modifications would be entirely reliable and more effective if we, as owners, could just be able to tune and manage air/fuel ratios on our own rides. I know you guys don't like the PCM/tuning issue questions so I'll avoid any further ones concerning this proprietory PCM lockdown ..but I wanted to personally tell you that allowing such a choice may actually improve SRT sales (e.g. repeat business, more gofast people), and create more demand. I am one of many that would buy this performance PCM and/or tuner. Hope you're listening Mopar!

Regardless, great design, great performance and I still get excited driving my SRT8. My wife has already named her "sheila". And now, she would like a word with you....

J/K. lol!

Corsa, Borla,?????
And why did you guys add the resonators?

Jeff

We suggest using the Mopar Cat Back Exhaust System. The part number is P5153453.

What resonators are you referring to? In the production system or the Mopar?

It is hard to get the corporate suits to not worry about warranty fraud.

I know its future product, but will the new hitch on the Jeep SRT8 fit with the Mopar aftermarket exhaust?

If new pads are put on the vehicle typically the rotors should be turned. If the rotors are beyond turning then they should be replaced. Without knowing how much rotor you have left it's tough to say whether they should be replaced or not.

Our dynamic's guy says to step on the brake pedal harder.

I have a 2006 Charger SRT8 with 13.5k miles. My car will not go pass 110 mph. The rpm would just sit at 6k. This would happen in regular drive. I took it to the dealer and as of yet, there is nothing they said they can do. I called Chrysler about a month ago and they still havent called me back to open a ticket.

Yes, but you will get new tips with the trailer tow package.
