You have a Charger and your wife has a twin-turbo Corvette?? Really?

This whole story seems abit strange. Each time someone says something, you come up with more and more...

I think my BS meter is blinking.

Mapson,

Ok. I sincerely appreciate what you did for our country. I didn't know. I mean that. But it just seems you, well frankly, are mad at something. You just seem so angry in your posts. There is no need for it here. Really. We can certainly write to each other as fellow Charger owners. When you got so upset with MoparMike and his wife, you made people think you were an idiot. You just started off wrong...

What you did for our country is admirable.

No, the stock ZO6 is not a turbo model. It is a super version of the Corvette, then in 2003, using 405 hi-reving HP. Instant (and lots of) throttle response. The pull in pretty much any gear was strong -- at 60 you could put it in 3rd gear and burn the tires -- I was along when we did it. Scarry. We had it dyno'd by a former race driver-turned tuner in Buffalo, MN and he put in a program to make it that way. He gave us 16.5 more rear wheel HP... (when we first went in he said it was running lean...).

Lincolnfelter (sp) uses a turbo setup and sells a kit for the Corvette. A twin kit would be in the 1,000 HP range and very expensive. I also believe they require some suspension/wheel/tire/tranny mods to handle it. If he has one, he or his wife must be damn good drivers...

The stock 200 MPH ZO6 is fast enough for me...

it wasnt fast enough for us only take it to the track with our friends soo and yes it is incediably fast and yes we both are good drivers so i mean it was almost 12k for the whole system then you have to put new tires and we did a little bit to the tranny so we wouldnt blow anything up but it is up to you weather you care or not

Mapson,

Now don't start that "whether you care or not" stuff. Come on. A lot of us here like to hear about other people's rides, especially the Charger... I know we got off onto Corvettes... but that is cool because a few of us here actually own(ed) them and relate to that. Wow. If you have twin turbos on that Vette, it's GOT to be a ride! Not for me, though... TOOOOO FAAAAAST for me. Have you put it on the track? Your 1/4 times must be nuts. You probably don't get enough traction for good times??

Do you plan on putting a turbo on your Charger?
