SRT-4s can make a lot of power, but they are severely limited by the FWD. My buddy had one back in 04 and when he went out to the drags, lots of the 300+ whp SRT-4s would only run mid-high 13s because of traction issues. Throw some drag radials on there and its a different story.

I think I would take you down from a dig. The SRT-4 would take BOTH OF US from a roll...

YEAH those SRT-4s are super fast. LOL

I dont know about from a roll though. All the V8s I have raced since I got my WRX really didnt get going until like 60 mph. The tiny stock turbos on the WRX and SRT-4s just dont have top end.

My last test and tune I went to one was running Consistant 13.02 but it looked pretty modified and had DR's on

I had a run in with an srt4 a couple weeks ago. They are pretty quick, I sprayed on him and he wasn't really even hanging around. With my NPI heads he would have killed me on straight motor.

with the right driver stock srt-4 can do high 13's and a mildy modded one can hit mid 12's highly modded 11's-10's even heard of one doing 9's. there was even a youtube or streetfire vidof a termi with over 500rwhp getting spanked bad by a srt-4 with 400+ whp. as far as the traction learn how to drive it and you wont have a prob it is a turbo you cant rev the **** out of it and expect to launch but thats what I mean by driver mod.
