With all that said....what kind of cars can i be expecting to run with? SRT4s....V6 mustangs.....just wondering roughly how much crap i'll be able to talk at work now...LOL...(work at advance auto)
but on another note, i was planning on getting to base greddy status (~6psi) and see how the stock would hold up, but seeing as how my stock clutch slips like no other right now (slightly modded N/A), pretty much threw that idea out the window. Now i've got a ACT Extreme 4 puck in my closet, just waiting for the greddy box to come.....that'll be a GREAT day.

An SRT-4 IS a fast car. I'm pretty surprised that you guys, miata owners - a car that runs a 17 second 1/4 mile out of the box, are calling the SRT-4 a slow car... I've test driven one, its fast. An EVO 8 or STI could beat it, but its got tons of bang for the buck and sure as heck will stomp all over any miata that doesn't have a whole lot of boost behind it. I'm not saying its some end-all super car, it certaintly isn't.
I personally hate SRT-4's - I think they look horrible, and I think that its pointless to wrap a ton of power onto a front wheel drive powertrain that is inherently limited by its drivetrain setup. They aren't 'sports cars' in my book, but its pretty ignorant to say SRT-4's are 'gay' or slow'...
Don't call them slow... they aren't

Maybe it the people around here who drive them that i hate. There is one kid with an srt 4 that flys up my street like 3 times a week, going like 50-60 mph. Its a realy small street, all houses nexat to a park. Lots of little kids, dog and me working on my ca rin the street. I hate it. Im sure if i got to go in a 450 hp one it would quickly change my mind. I guess no matter what there is someone to **** up any car.
