When I was 16 I had a 69Camaro and a ZX11, those was the days. I can't imagine what you are doing in high school with your car, everyone must hate on you. I know I would.lol

You're usually pretty level headed but a lot of the stuff you said in this particular thread came off as childish. Never pegged you as a spoiled kid, and don't think you are. Though, I do think you PMS'd for no reason on this thread. Just enjoy your ride, and respect theirs.
Man. they disrespected mine first. "You wish you had a Mustang" Don't get me wrong, I like them, but it's not like I pray at night for god to drop me off a Mustang. Yeah, mine was fully loaded. HID headlights, Mygig 20GB HD Nav, Sunroof, AWD, A/C for the back seats, etc.

A little bit, mostly praise to my face, talk **** behind my back. I beat a 05 GT 5spd at the high school that had a intake and exhaust, after that everybody thought the HEMI was so fast lol. He would talk so much **** and I took him by half a car length, he was pissed and is now cammed and has headers and ****.

Do you know if that 05 GT was tuned for the intake? They go into limp mode pretty easily from slapping an intake on them without tuning it for it. I think it only takes like a 2% change in air flow to throw the car off. I'm sure you beat him fair and square, just wondering how many people install them without tuning for it.

Hrmm, that's all basic in the SRT8 (A/C in the rear) though the 07s didn't get mygig (my NAV is useless anywho, **** is coming out) and HIDs were only on the 300s in 07. Kind of wish I didn't get the sunroof, or the side impact airbags and all that extra crap (weight is a bitch).

Never even looked at getting a fully optioned R/T (or even an R/T in general) had no clue they got that expensive. Crazyness, why didn't you guys look @ the SRT8s?

He didn't have a tune on it I don't think, but it ran fine. I rode in it / drove it. It felt MUCH faster than my car. I think alot of that is due to the standard and the exhaust noise, and the RWD.

The HID's came out in 08 for the Chargers I think. Mygig was 1600, HIDS were 600-800, I got a protection package dont remember the price, sunroof and i dont remember the price, AWD was 2k or so, a special interior package that gave me little LED lights everywhere. I'm probably forgetting some stuff though.

Was it a drop in filter or an actual CAI? Any word on the brand?
