Some progress with TEIN, but not there yet, NEED V6 MULE.

Most people who read this section of the forum know that MANY 300 owners are waiting for TEIN to release their coil-overs with EDFC for the Chrysler 300/300C - including me. I called TEIN and have spoken to them several times. Their explanation to me is that they will not put their name, warranty, and reputation behind a product/car combination that they haven't personally R & D'd. I respect this from a business point of view. However, they're still trying to finish R & D from the end of 2006...

I think I have finally convinced them/harassed them to move the 300's up in the que. THEY ALREADY HAVE A V8 lined up for R & D.

THEY NEED A V6 300 WITH ***STOCK SUSPENSION and WHEELS*** TO R & D in order for the project to move forward. TEIN is located in the Los Angeles area.

If your vehicle fits the red above and you are willing to donate your ride for a day or two in the Los Angeles, CA area, please send an e-mail to sales@tein.com with your contact info.

If there are any questions, please send them to the address above or shoot me a PM.

I wish I was closer I would definitely do it. I'm holding off on my suspension upgrade because I want the Tein with the electronic adjustment thingy...

It would be awesome to adjust without manually doing it I hear you can have custom settings hit the button and bam... adjusted to your specific ride comfort.

Kudos to 1fastsedan for spearheading this project! He lives just a little closer than me to TEIN's location and we have both been anxiously awaiting this suspension kit after seeing and hearing all the great reports from the one on Mighty Noid's Charger. Hopefully, one of our members with a stock v.6 will offer to participate in the R & D.

Here is a link to one of the threads that has helped to spur interest in the TEIN suspension with the EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller).

...HEHATEME...glad you love your KW v.2. It is another fine suspension that many members have installed. If the TEIN doesn't work out, then that's what I will choose, especially since the company is located in Sanger, a city right next to where I live. It's just that many of us are really interested in using the EDFC on the fly. I was very impressed with my test drive on Mighty Noid's Charger.

Some one give up a 300C AWD too. I emailed TEIN a couple months back and they asked for my car, but I'm too far away.

I know at least 2 or 3 guys with V6s have e-mailed TEIN about using their 300s. I haven't heard from them since Tuesday about setting up the actual date to do everything. As I said before, when I get a date from them if they don't have a V6 volunteer I will rent a car to make sure one is available.

1fastsedan,
Will the R & D on your SRT suffice for the 300c?? Come on people with the V6! Someone in So. Cal. needs to volunteer for this worthwhile system. Believe me, I drove Noid's and it is the bomb!
