knock off srt10

[TheMaddog]

im currently trying to make my little 3.7l st into a badass 3.7 srt10.

about to get a turbo so theres the majority of my power.

does anyone know where i can find all the moldings, hood, spoiler and rims...

perferably for cheap, i don't care if the rims or hood aren't 100% srt10, just close enough to where someone will ask me about it..


thanks, Sam

A Turbo isn't gonna give the little 3.7L anywhere near the power of an SRT 10. The whole SRT10 kit is rare, especially the Moldings for the doors. And you're looking at spending around 8K+ for the pieces and paint.

 

[TheMaddog]

yeah, figures, and it'll do some, i don't plan on racing people.

I agree, not the best idea man. Better off buying a new 5.7 Hemi ST. Look at an express! :********:

 

[TheMaddog]

the turbo i found was pretty cheap, not like $100. it's about $800. but i don't really need the turbo, just a thought

Gotta get on board with everyone else man, not worth the money. I think the outcome will not make you happy. Be better off saving your money and getting something newer in a year or two.

Man, this is my college gift. If anything, I'm down sizing like no other. Still dodge. But gotta save on gas. My drifting days are numbered

Just thinking off the top of my head... 3.7's are rated at what 205 HP or 215HP. Turbo's/blowers usually give you about an extra 50% power gain (usually around 100HP) to the crank, unless you build the motor up to take more, which doesn't sound like the case here. So with that, your looking at between 290-310HP to the crank. Factor in the 20%-ish drivetrain loss, and your only gonna see about 230HP-250HP at the rear wheels. That's less than a 4.7L puts down.

EDIT: I know the procharger for the 5.7L hemi's only adds 100-110 HP, so it might actually be less than that.

Drifting days? Lol. Aren't you 17. Didn't you just get your license? Lol.

The truck is the gift or the turbo is the gift?

the truck, i had a ford before this, i loved that thing, i know, it's a ford. but that thing was family, 13 years we had that truck...

This is definitely something I would broadcast on a public forum...

we have a bay house with nothing down there, i drove with my dad, and i didn't go very fast, only like 30. for under a mile.

12!! That's how old my sister is right now! So you've been drifting a truck on the streets since 12 and never got caught. Do your parents know?

A turbocharged 3.7 isn't going to do much for you... plus I'd be afraid of it blowing up. A hemi would be ideal for a turbocharger.

 

[TheMaddog]

no, thats not what i meant!!! lol

ive been driving, not drifting.

i've been drifting for about a year, only when its somewhat rainy, not like a full on down pour, the other day i went from 1st to 3rd gear while peeling out, felt so accomplished, done with peel outs, for life.


drifting is another story

Well a cummins is ideal for a turbocharger. Well actually a twin Turbo (future truck for me). A supercharger is ideal for a 5.7

well, screw the turbo. im poor as f anyways, more money looking towards the outside of my truck

Dude just save your money so you can buy a hemi later in. Trust me.
