2003 SRT-4 T3/T4 60-1 Trim Turbo

[dangerously_cool]

I can talk to my friend, he has the vid on his computer, I only have a CD of it. It's 30 Minutes.
Other thing is I don't have a host...pity.

[dangerously_cool]

I've got new pictures from today, and I've made them a bit smaller.

[Devilsdog9]

The pics ain't loading for me but I do wanna say from your first picture i like the rims and i too will be purchasing a black one real soon

[dangerously_cool]

Sorry about the downtime on those pics, my friend's server was down for a little while.

The car isn't running right now, I had to pull the manifold and have some work done to it, but hopefully tomorrow the car will be up and running, and then I should have some new pictures, weather permitting.

The two highway pictures are of highway 4-E and W, at Willow Pass roa, by the Highway 242 exit, fifteen minutes from me.

The rest of the pictures on the page are in Alhambra valley, about ten minutes from me, towards Orinda.

I'm hoping to get some pictures from Oakland Hills of the Bay, and the Bay and Golden Gate Bridges. If I can, Those should be some beautiful pictures.

cant wait to see the pics.hope u get the manifold sorted.did u ever find anywere to host that video u had?

The car is put back together, and I believe that I got rid of some leaks. I noticed that there is no ticking noise under low boost. Car works better now. Yesterday, I drove to Oakland hills, though it took me three hours because I got lost in the middle of the most ghetto part of Oakland I've ever seen. It was agitating.
And on the way back, in the Caldecott tunnel, there was an accident, and a car caught on fire, So I was stuck in the tunnel for a while, anyways, without further adoo (sp?) here are the pics, in small form. I'll get better sized ones up once my friend's server is back up.

Oakland Hills:






The Caldecott Tunnel
















Oh and that's not me.

nice pics,your rims always look good.nice choice for the srt-4

[GTO]

Call it a hunch but I'm guessing you really love your car from all the pics lol

Seriously it looks awesome and 300HP I'd love to see a 1/4 run. As you said take it easy about ramping the boost pressure all the way, in time.

^ Yes great rims choice too, looks a bit like rims on a EVO 8.

You totally changed my perception of the SRT-4, from a toy to something like a STI or an EVO!

wow pulled some power out of that

[dangerously_cool]

Yeap, I love driving this car, it's fun as hell, plus the area is beautiful.

More power is on the way. As soon as my new MAP sensor, PCM, and Injectors come in, I'm going to turn the boost up to 18 psi. 12 psi made 242 whp, and 15psi made 300. Its efficiency is well above 20, so this should be nice.

The car looks very good in the pics, i hope to see one someday

[dangerously_cool]

This weekend I should be able to make a teeny bit more horsepower, there's going to be a mini-meet/install meet, and my underdrive pulley, and hopefully the rear control arms and rear sway bar will be going on as well.
I have a big leak (car won't hold boost, it fluctuates like crazy), and after I built a leak tester, I found that it leaks like crazy around the catch can.
Unfortunately, this is far from definitive. The catch can is right next the the wastegate, and the wastegate lines, and above and next to the turbo-intercooler coupling, two probable leak sources.

I will find out this weekend. I hope to get some more pictures up on here soon.

[dangerously_cool]

The leak was fixed, it was caused by a few loose parts, the intercooler hot side pipe was leaking, as well as the upper pressure pipe, and the oil dump tube, all had to be tightened, and the leaks went away. The only leak left, an inevitable one, is the oil catch can, but it is not bad at all.

The underdrive pulley went in no problems at all, and the engine revs a little bit more freely now, so I like that. The Perrin rear sway bar, as well as energy suspension endlinks and polyurethane bushings are on the car now, and I hope that soon I can get my control arms installed, because the Perrin sway bar alone makes the car handle a world apart than what it did.

Right now, the boost is turned down, so the car will only be at about 280whp, since the computer has been pulling ignition timing at 15 psi. I hope to get a new computer/clamp the map sensor in a month or so.

And now for the good part, I drove to the top of the local mountain, the highest peak in my area, 3849 feet, or about 1200 meters, and took some pictures on the way up. I took a total of 92 pictures, here are twelve of the better ones, unfortunately, the weather was not terribly accomodating, it was a bit cloudy, but here they are.

Damm that must be faster than a evo 6

[Sp00ln]

Nope.... he wishes his neon could ever be faster than a mitsubishi
