    Now I understand why you did the black ss lines. They almost go un noticed in the engine bay. Not sure if that's what you were after, but I like it!

    I like the "SRT-Z" name, but still don't think it's as good as the "Shelby Z-24"...lol..

    looks sweet.

    don't know if you know this but the stock srt acc pulley has a rubber dampener in it to eat vibrations and guys with aftermarket unit have been fragging oil pumps, literally.

    Good: I have to say, that's about the cleanest no-nonsense 2.4 swap I've seen.
    Bad: Lose the SRT-4 wheels. I think they are the ugliest FWD Mopar wheels ever.

    I think the SRT-4 wheels actually look pretty good on the Daytona, which is strange, because I hated the way they looked on my SRT-4! What I would suggest for the Tona is to space out the rear a bit for asthetics. They look too far tucked in.

    I agree with the spacing part, the SRT wheels have more offset that most TD wheels and are spaced in too far, push them out a little more and I think it would look perfect.

    I can't help notice in your sig picture at how even your car launches. Nice and even. Looks like it's sitting still, when it's actually launching pretty hard judging by the slicks.


    Sorry for the hijacking JT! How's it run?

    True point. And DSM guys that ditch the stock pulley and don't put on an ATI unit or similar end up losing bearings.

    I was going to put it in a neon, but after pulling parts off neons in a j-yard, I said f-that!

    Are they working now? work ok for me.

    LOL, not too much billet after all

    I really didnt want to do that but until I figure out how much heat it makes I really don't want to cook anything!

    Exactly, nicely out of the way and it is a street car still, so it does need one Clay!

    I spent some big bucks on the lines, they are Aeroquip Kevlar lines, way lighter than SS and way easier to use

    I didn't get a crank pulley with it... tell me more, what is the vibration from? I only have 1 accessory, the alternator.

    Yeah, they do need to stick out more, maybe an 0.5 - 1 inch?

    It runs... I have not put a tune on it yet (using the 8v cal) so it has not even made boost yet.

    Thats because they try and run the stock ecu with big turbo's and big boost.Detonation from to much advance is whats breaking the oil pumps,these engines need very little timing to run good.Ive been running mine hard for 3 years and not a problem at all.Keep the timing conservative JT and you wont have a problem.
