i dont know what kind of tuning that youre really looking for...everyone that i have talked to with built RTs have told me that unless you have mods that GREATLY alter the stock air flow, such as intake plenum/head work or headers/cat work, tuning wont gain you much...where do you live, and what color is your car? i see a few nice looking red RTs a silver one with some vinyl, and a few black ones around here..is one of them you? i live in shelby twp.

my rear section is the muffler from my mirada, and it is alot bigger than 2.5", which is why my car has such a unique sound...i have alot deeper, and alot less nasal sound than many NA V6s..we simply remove the rest of the outlet from the muffler, and that is what is left..i believe that it was a dynomax header muffler...

let me know when you have some pictures up...i look forward to them!

I'm running an Eibach Lowering Pro kit on my Stratus. I like the look and the ride isnt anywhere near as bad as I thought it would be. I have pictures in my profile if you want to see the look. My car recieved a 2in drop up front and 3in the rear. I think it looks very nice.

My strat is black, and I live in Farmington Hills. I spend a great deal of time in the clinton twp area, m59 and van dyke to hayes area.

I am eventually going to add N.O.S. but seeing as a turbo or supercharge kit costs about 5k I am looking for any na mods that will boost horse. I have found a guy that will reprogram the chip from an eclipse to advance timing and he claims 15-25% gains in horse. I'm not sure that a) it's the same chip, and b) that the gains are there. I was also thinking about adjustable cams to advance the timing. With the intake and the exhaust, is there anywhere else under a $1000 a pop that I can go to get the r/t flirting with some mustangs? Thanks a lot as you have been very helpfull, and I'll get some pics if this damn weather ever clears up.

BadStratRT, you think you have seen the most powerful stratus coupe? Have you seen my car yet? ;)
I think it is the most powerful street driven strat out there, as this is my daily driver....and its soon to
be even more powerful. FWD Me ..... FWD can only go so far with traction, ya know.

My car is sitting in storage right now because im in college and i dont have insurance on it.
Right now i am home from college for christmas break, but my car is staying in storage
until spring break. Around that time i will take some pictures. I have older pictures before
i dumped money into this car, but it just looked like a stock stratus with 5% tints. Kind of
the same as it looks now.

I love the respect i get from this car. I pull into parking lots on cruise nights and im immediately
the highlight of the moment. Once parked next to 2 restored 67' camaro's (one with a late 40's
owner and the other with a mid 50's owner) and they were checking out my car and complimenting
me on it.

It looks completely stock from the outside, besides silverstar headlights, the 4" tip out of the muffler,
and my tinted windows. I even have the stock 16" rims on there. Obviously, i have slim to near no
traction right now because the tires arent wide enough, so im looking into getting 4 17x8.5's and then
2 16x9's(for drag radials). http://www.hwydeez.com has some really nice custom rims.

I have learned a TON about this car. If anyone has any questions regarding anything about it, fell free
to pm me, im me, msn me, email me, whichever you prefer.

btw.... im 18 years old, did all the work on my car (besides machine work on engine, heads,etc), and
paid every for penny of it. Not trying to brag at all ;)

there is only one other Ripped stratus that i know of that is putting down over 400whp, and he goes by
the name of rtspeed on the ****.org forums. He has stage 4 RPW cams and his car is not
streetable. He ran 11.9 at the track with it. The next closest was a guy by the name of K2buk on the
club3g forums. He was putting down 383whp at 18psi. Then there was neil (by the name of npeifer on
the **** forums). He put down 360whp at somewhere between 15-18psi (not tottaly sure on the psi)

The main thing holding these motors back from high HP numbers include a few things.

1. The stock ecu sucks.
2. The stock front and rear cams arent the same profiles
3. Stock, the rings arent gapped for boost.
4. The MAF isnt meant for forced induction
5. Forged internals
6. Distributor only provides effecient spark up to about 15-17psi.

In stock form, our heads flow surprisingly well! After a port an polish job, new cams and new valves, you'll
have some sweeeeet flowing heads.

Remember, our block is EXACTLY the same as the vr-4 blocks, except without forged internals, and the rings
arent gapped for boost. You can essentially try to do a DOHC swap onto our motors, however there seems
to be a fitment issue with the rear valve cover hitting the firewall. A little fabrication and that can be fixed.

Alot of 3000gt parts fit onto our car. Fuel rails, injectors, cranks, rods, pistons (SOHC), im pretty sure the intake
manifold fits, etc. http://www.3sxperformance.com is where i have been buying most of the 3000gt parts.

Did you bore the throttle body a few extra MM? or if not where did you get a 62 mm throttle body?? that would be kinda neat to see a dyno sheet and pics of your mods...I mean I know its in storage but perhaps you have some pics somewhere.

Yes it was bored. I will be taking pics of the finished product around spring break. I was away at college
and couldnt take any.

The profile on his cam is extemely aggressive. It idles around 1200rpm and its VERY rough. Neil's car
put down 360whp (that is npeifer). I met neil, hes a good guy ;)
