Default For all the SRT-4 owners

What are your opinions on the stage 3? I think that the pricing is kind of crazy 4,100 or what may vary in different areas. Do you really think that price is worth 375hp or may vary with turbo toys and 110 octane? With that much cash you can change up a lot and put out more hp with prob a thousand cheaper. Esp with the agp turbo upgrade kit and the RC 660 injectors. With a e manage or apexi safc2. That is almost 1,000 dollars for every 100hp. I don’t know I just want to hear some opinions. Reliability is a key factor also.

My opinion is about what you are looking to get out of it. If you want out of the box performance designed by MOPAR on our car, then it's an awsome value. You don't have to worry about taking multiple trips to the dyno tunning you're car and wondering how long you're motor will last. For a little extra money you get bolt on, no tunning out of the box performance. Think about it? Base SRT-4 $21,000, Stage 3R w toys $3999 = $25,000 for a High 12 second Sti and Evo waster all day long. Still 6K less. I am buying it so maybe that's why my opinion is (+)

The short version to be followed by the long version tonight when I get off work is if reliability is key for you then go with stage 3. You can get it for a lot cheaper then the price you have listed. It has more reliability testing put into it then any turbo kit from any company IMO.

oh man you have 18's on your srt4? ouch.

for 25k and the ability to run those times, is pretty amazing.. does it keep the warranty? If so, wow.. not to mention its limited by traction.. get that under control and I'm sure MUCH lower times are easily possible.. from a roll it would be devastating to just about any decently priced car, much less a sti/evo(stock for stock, which is what we are talking about...)
