I ran one of the most extensive cooling set-ups of the day including dual h/e's and posted pics and my results years ago. The second h/e was remote mounted with twin Spal fans blowing on it. I was probably one of the first to actually prove instead of theorize that the problem was an inefficient i/c.

Looks good Mikey, I was on the fence between doing what you did versus killer chiller as I didn't want to dick around with AC temp

I live in AZ so anything that can reduce the efficiency of my A/C is out of the question! If I had to do it all over again, I'd split the circuit, add a large reservoir, and a progressive meth system.

One hell of a car and kudos to Chrysler for releasing as is. Look forward to seeing a few on the streets!

I'd be crying more for the owner who actually spent money on that atrocity....

It just looks like they are trying too hard to mesh the bulky big side profile design with a European front end design and it just doesn't work at all. I was a fan of the older chargers as I use to own a 07 srt-8 but the new ones are just hideous.

Oh you can bet it's on the way! And we thought about trading out ML550 for an ML63... May have to wait to see what the Grand Cherokee looks like!

And it looks like they will be had for $63k.

Not bad for a factory 11 second car with a warranty!

x2!!! Or even a Durango Hellcat.

Holy poop - Ran an 11.0 second quarter mile on street tires.

Some spray and slicks, and this should be running deep 10s... O_O
