Default RE: To drive or not to drive.

4406v,

I could not agree more! I will drive this thing like it was built to be.....

Dodge did a great job, but now it's time to teach this new dog old tricks!

First is the converter upgrade/cold air intake/Computer tune
The torque converters in the LX cars are built by Mercedes and the clearances are excessive. Just setting tighter clearances and upgrading the multi disk lock up to Red Eagle Frictions, and Kolenes. I see MUCH less gap between Crank HP, and HP at the tires. The transmission is one of the best ever made (722.6 Mercedes).

I'm waiting for a R&D supercharger from a company I do business with. When I add the SC I will upgrade the rotating assembly, and only run about 4lbs of boost.

The best part about this car... No brand new parts, no waiting for the after market to catch up.
