I haven't heard anyone with the x on here complain about hot weather.

If your not in Cali I'd say it should, it really depends on your state's emission laws. What state do you live in?

Most often on here you'll read that 4.10s are better for n/a and 3.73s are better with f/i but it has been done both ways with the x

I haven't heard of anybody failing inspection b/c of the x-charger, but I could be wrong.

I have only had my X on less than a couple weeks(cali spec kit for now).I am a manual w/3.73's and glad i did'nt go any bigger on gears.I have pretty sticky tires and can still break loose without too much effort.Can't come on too strong outta the hole till i go to fatter,even stickier tires like et streets or something.I love this thing.

Someone told me since that X-Charger doesn't have an intercooler, it runs the engine hot all the time. Which in turn, is bad for the engine and will cause it to overheat more easily, etc etc. Is this true?

Note: I live in South Florida, it's always hot. I don't need my engine smokin'.

I can't tell you by personal experience as I am in on the group deal, but as far as reliability is concerned, the X seems to be at the top of that market. I only have heard of one person who has had any problems and apparantly that was his fault by admission. Couple that with the fact that there are probably more people with the Xcharger here than with any other F/I that should be pretty strong evidence. Although you never know if somebody is holding out on us. Theintercooler should be out later this year as well which will put our numbers up considerably.
