    I thought crossfires had the spoiler that rose when you got to a certain speed. Is that on a differnt model or something? Or am i thinking of a differnt car?

      the lower-end models have that type of spoiler, the SRT6 is the highest end available directly from the factory and for it they added a permanent spoiler.

              I think we should have different sections, like import and domestic cars...nothing's gonna stand a chance against that 'vette, lol! Anyway, here's the MR2 turbo that my friend and I modded:





              Specs include:
              - CT27 turbo (46trim t4 wheel) from ATSRacing
              - manual boost control
              - removed cats
              - weight reduction, some suspension
              - Walboro fuel pump
              - brakes, suspension, upgraded intercooler on the way

              With intercooler, the car should be at mid 13's

                Nah, just like what happened in the Truck/SUV of the month thread, I will lose and be ridiculed for having a "stock" vehicle.

                You see, back in 1967, you could walk into a dealership and buy that vette as it is today. Thus, my Corvette should not be allowed in any car shows, nor should it win ANY contests. Same with my SRT8 Grand Cherokee!

                  oh, hush you

                  kick a$$ cars though, props for sure...i'd vote for that 'vette in a heartbeat

                  /tuners are sweet, but there's just something about old-school american muscle...
