Almost 1000HP

500+HP C63 + 420+HP Jeep



A drunk driver totaled my daily driver FJ Cruiser which gave me the perfect excuse to my wife to buy a used Jeep SRT8. Dont get me wrong its no Benz as far as the interior goes but I didnt buy it for that anyways. My god this thing is quick and it just hooks and launches like a slingshot! Its quicker from a dig than my chipped+headers C63 because of the 4x4. Well until the rules of aerodynamics stops it at 80+MPH. For all you car nuts I suggest that you at least test drive one of this.

Nice ride. Go-fast parts are nice and cheap too.

It came with an exhaust and intake. I'm not sure about the headers and the tune. Who specializes in tuning these V8s?

Dude, I love SRT'8s. I used to have a Charger SRT. You gotta get a Diablo Tune(Predator), Cheapest and best mod. Its a handheld module that allows you to adjust all your shiftpoints, fuel, timing. But I wouldnt mess with the fuel and timing tho. Buy the diablo and take it to Dyno, and they will dyno tune it for you. I picked up 40 hp just off the diablo on my SRT8. Anyway, bad a## car, enjoy. Also visit this site www.srtconnection.com really cool site with great guys and great info. GL

Sup Jae! I eat at that Japanese revolving sushi bar next door all the time. But I rarely drive the C63 there. Do you still hang out there a lot?

Not recommended unless you want a snow plow. Its too damn low in the front, although I'm certain its drive train is very capable.

Revolving Sushi normally aint good but this one is grade A quality and its cheap. 2 bucks a plate. That's why there is always a long line in front of it for lunch and dinner. 45+ minutes wait is the norm.

I guess I'll try it out next time I'm in the area. $2 a plate is like all you can eat for me almost
Long lines during lunch/dinner is ok...my eating times for lunch is 3 and dinner at 9
