Cammed and 35R'd SRT-4 at idle

[Tsimfuckiss]

What steering wheel?!

[rasp187]

@Tsimfuckiss It's a custom Momo wheel that my friend etched a Dodge Ram emblem into the horn for.

[Hickorysmoked88]

Who makes that hood?

[rasp187]

@Hickorysmoked88 Carbon By Design.

[rasp187]

@Hickorysmoked88 Carbon By Design makes the hood. It's called the heat-extraction hood.

[damnsrt]

@rasp187

im pretty sure its called an air induction hood.

[rasp187]

@damnsrt Heat Extraction Hood ;).

It works well but it takes a bit to get the fitment spot on.

[Fam4Racing]

those gauges are sick my friend. what kind are they?

[rasp187]

@Fam4Racing The two in the a-pillar are VEI brand, and the one by where the stock boost gauge sits is the Aeroforce Interceptor Scangauge.

[BurtonRider10691]

i usually dont like it when people put different hoods on SRT4's, but you can pull it off! nice car!

[rasp187]

@BurtonRider10691 Thanks.

[gradxg]

all i see is a bunch of retards commenting on other retards comments stfu dang nice srt 4 btw

[MiniCooperBenzo]

Not so much a fan on the look w the bodykit but great car dude!

[rasp187]

@MiniCooperBenzo There's no bodykit on the car.

[MiniCooperBenzo]

@rasp187 Well i saw the hood so figured bodykit all over.. but my mistake

[zordon12345]

@MiniCooperBenzo there is no body kit... its stock

[pdh19802005]

@MiniCooperBenzo LMAOOO @ srt knowledge fail.



[americansmark]

@rasp187 I'd love to get some more rpm's out of the engine. I aw Crane has a set for DD the Skittle...not sure if there is a video of it on here cuz everyone refers to them as 12 or 16.

[rasp187]

@americansmark Crane cams are good cams.  Try to find some original Crower cams (not Brian Crower).

[americansmark]

@rasp187 I have heard about those. Can I buy them from Crower or do I have to find someone who is selling it for above market value? lol

[rasp187]

@americansmark Crower cams are hard to come by, as they're fairly rare. Your best bet would be to try to find a set someone is selling used. Usually they aren't marked up much at all simply because new grinds coming out by Crane and even Brian Crower are becoming more and more used. All-in-all it's about selecting cams specific for what you're trying to do and that will work in the kind of head you are running (stock, mildly ported, race ported, etc.).

[americansmark]

@rasp187 Makes sense. I'll keep an eye out. I'm just looking for a daily driver at this point with stock or maybe mild heads. Something I could drive to the track and back home. Maybe a few years down the line, when the daily driving duties are taken away from it, I'll gut it and do a solid race build, but that's a long ways away.

[rasp187]

@americansmark Well I've swapped numerous sets of cams, so I guess I'll give my input on the matter. I've always had great luck with Crower S2's and S3's for my builds. I am running S3's now, but the S2's worked awesome with my .50 trim in the day. For some reason Brian Crower cams never impressed me when I had them. I ran Crane 18's and those were nice billet cams as well. What do you have done to your SRT?

[americansmark]

Love that wheel bro. What is it? Not a big fan of cam lope on the 4-cylinders though.  Prolly cuz I'm used to the sound of my buddy's 6.0 Goat loping along. Either way, nice car. Possibly getting an ACR edition with straight pipes and CAI tomorrow.

[rasp187]

@americansmark Momo with quick-release hub. Cams weren't really for lope. Even tuned they lope. I guess it's just a "perk" of having bigger cams in the car.

[americansmark]

@rasp187 What's the benefit of the cams on a 40cylinder then? I'll look into the Momo. Ended up with an 05 Orange Blast SRT-4. Picking it up tomorrow and making a stop at Summitt Racing on the way back for some parts.

[rasp187]

@americansmark The way they're currently tuned, they spool up the 35R faster than stock cams. Depending on how you tune aftermarket cams, you can increase the upper RPM range and lengthen it out, or you can make it so it spools a bigger turbo faster.

[63B1stmaint]

still fuckin gorgeous :)

[codysheets]

I have a black 05 srt stg 2 with some extra goodies. I really like your CBD hood, I plan on getting one too. Well done so far my good sir

[lowrance122]

nice car...why the rich idle? Is it from the cams?

[rasp187]

@lowrance122

Rich idle? It's perfectly stoich and the higher the number, the leaner the A/F's are. Idling at 10 or so would be a rich idle. The cams never affected the idle A/F's, however.

[lowrance122]

@rasp187 Try about 14.7

[rasp187]

@lowrance122 You really have no idea what you're talking about, do you? In the video the wideband is clearly bouncing in the 14s, which is nowhere near rich for a N/A application and certainly not for a boosted application. 14.1-.7 is so insignificant at idle it's not even worth commenting about. Learn a bit more about cars and then come posting on how widebands should read.

[chemi13]

the hood can stay :)

[KINGSRT4]

the hood got to go and the tail light 4 real but nice idle tho

[eouellette09]

rev that shit up dude!!!!!!!! i love srt-4s, getting one this summer. where did you get the steering wheel?

[rasp187]

My gf bought it for me years ago. I asked her and she can't remember where she got it. I know it's a Momo wheel with a quick-disconnect and custom middle stencil of the "Ram."

[eouellette09]

thanks dude.

[blastOrange]

so what kinda internal did you go with i have my car tore down and fixing to build it and need tips on what to and dont's. what size pistons and bore over or not.

[rasp187]

Crower rods with Wiseco pistons @ stock compression (8.5:1). .020 overbore, too, with a polished and knifed crankshaft (balanced, of course).

[seprehuoyeviglli]

Love the steering wheel.

[rasp187]

You have a lot more power to be had from the 35R on the 18s, bro.  You should be making close to 500whp with that setup :)

Built motor?

[mjennings2]

Fully. Plenty of fuel also. I didn't figure Id get much more outta it. You running header or manifold on the exhaust? I dont plan on running more than 20-21 psi on pump just to be safe.

[mjennings2]

Sounds nice! What kinda power did you put down? Octane? psi?

[mach5stage3]

sounds great hey i have a few questions lol are you port an polished, valve job? an most important did you run into a lean prob in 5th on highway? oh my vids are after my cam an gear install
