Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

Sorry, this feature isn't in your hardware. No way to activate this on a 2006.

firstly, Id like to say that from the last SRT chat i UNDERSTAND that the fuel injectors are plenty big enough for MS1. I still have 2 questions.

1. What are the largest injectors you have tested in the SRT4, for ANY reason?
2. What IDC are you seeing at WOT on the SRT4?

If the Mopar Stage 1 for the caliber srt-4 voids the warranty anyway then why hold back and limit the torque and HP by closing throttle and drop boost??

As an original owner of a 2005 300C SRT8 with 19,000 kilometers on the clock, I have always wondered about something - Chrysler brought out the 2005 model and only built a couple hundred before immediately switching over to 2006 model year production. Was there any particular reason for doing this? Why didn't they just built and intro them all as 2006 models? The only difference is rear VES and TPM's.

Spring is a good time to launch a mid year car. Lots of people buy cars in the Spring and we got lots of good magazine coverage prior to any of our competitors getting coverage on what's new for 2006. The 2006 SRT8s also get MK25e abs/esp system instead of the 2005 and earlier MK25. MK25e got 3 mode. If the suits let us, we get the cars out as soon as we can.

Hey, no complaints from me and I agree the coverage was something else!!! Correct me if I'm wrong, but the ABS pump was a rolling change mid year.

We haven't tested beyond the production ones....as you said they are plenty for Stage 1.

What is IDC?
