Default RE: New Sticky???

Modification: Comp 400 Camshaft
Manufacturers: Comp Cams
Price Range: $180.00-$260.00
Where to Buy: SummitRacing.Com, CompCams.Com, Ebay.Com.
Difficulty of Installation (1 as easiest 10 as most difficult): 8
Time For Installation: 2-6 hours
Expected Gains (in WHP): 9-12whp
Explanation of Mod: The Comp 400 camshaft is designed specifically for the Magnum 2.0 “High Output” engine with much increased lift and duration. While most aftermarket camshafts will exceed the computer controlled 6750 rev limiter, the Comp 400 has been designed to create its increased power from 5,000-6750rpm’s. Stock Magnum valve springs are sufficient, however, a limited amount of valve float could be present and upgrading to titanium valve springs is recommended but not necessary.

One suggestion would be for the sticky would be to put links to the were to find them part. I know you can't do it for places like ebay where the parts change but you could do it on a majority of the stuff. example MPx 60mm TB http://www.modernperformance.com/dcx/pl2000_index.shtml

Also I wonder if there is a way were you can actually show people what mods are necessary for one another, like for example a camshaft would require also springs and a adjustable camgear. OR recommend with a CAI is a 60mm TB, or tubo kit and the necessary parts etc... if you see what I'm getting at.

Oh and now that I think about it I wonder if we really need the old sticky or I guess once we get this thing really off the ground I guess it would be nice to make sure we don't leave anything out, kinda like a reference tool.

OH and I have to say nice work Jared, you really typing alot for no pay lol, but seriously it's already looking good.

Here is a Magnaflow set of pics for you to put in the catback exhaust mod section. It would be cool if we could get some sound clips in there to, i'll have to work on that one though.

Just wanted to give you this so people can compare the differences in products.

There is also the srt-4 gauge cluster

This thread is great and all...but the ones who read it probably will be the ones who added to it. Not the ones who are asking how to turbo their car or what exhaust to get.

Well, the goal is to make a more efficient "How to make a second gen fast" thread. Have you read it from 1st page to last? Its confusing and people are contradicting!

By listing modifications and reviewing them, if someone asks about something... all we have to do is point them to that thread. If they have further questions they can bring it up.

If we get as many reviews as 03neonRT wants, we will have reviews on multiple exhaust systems (so they can decide) and once we get the boring bolt ons out of the way, he said we will move on to engine, turbo's, appearence, etc.

patience We will see how it works out

I don't mean to steal any thunder but something came up while reading through this. All of these ideas are great and I really think it will help some of the beginners. I still consider myself one but getting to a novice. Anyways, definitely giving people a chance is number 1 and giving them as much information as possible will be great. I mean the biggest thing is making sure you do the install right, anyone can purchase anything but installing it is a different story. That's what I look to the forum for, help on installing if I need it cuz you guys have done it before.
But keep up the great work on the reviews. I haven't done too much but I have taken extensive pictures of what I've done so far. I'm definitely a beginner compared to some of you. But in terms of visual mods and easy: (clear corners on front bumper, clear third brake light, oem fog lights)

Anywho, on to my question... I bought MSD Spark Plug Wires off of someone who had them in a SRT-4. I put them in but it made the car sound worse. It was making great contact in my 03 Neon SXT. I went to AutoZone and he told me they're universal. I see some of you have them in your 03's and what not. My question, how come they didn't fit properly and what can I do? (Without stealing this thread, it's just I saw someone was going to make a review about it) and I was wondering? Thanks.
