How much boost can the stock motor run....looks like not over 20psi.....and what is the first thing to go faulty....

ie pistons, connecting rods, pushrods, .... what busts first?

 

stock is something like 17-18 psi...

why do you want to over-boost the car?

 

to go faster.......never said i wanted to overboost the car....
but its just nice to know what the car can handle and what needs replacement first.

 

I would suggest learning to drive the car first... before you jump into making it faster (and no, I don't need to hear how you are perfect race car driver)... I have been reading about a lot of accidents (over on another SRT site)...

I've seen your posts about "twin turbo's" and stuff... just make sure you aren't putting the cart before the horse...

 

I dont even have a srt-4 yet......just trying to educate myself a lil bit before i get one here in a few days....but nobody seems to be too helpful so far...i would think that im nowhere near a perfect driver...

 

I am sorry... your questions are a little too "over the top"...

You want a stock twin turbo SRT... calm the horses... first off, if you do some searching in the forum you will find a lot of great information. Second, if you have reasonable questions people are more than willing to answer and help...

instead of asking - what do I need to replace when I choose to over boost my car...
ask this way - I want to run more boost in my car, what should I do and how do I make sure the engine / fuel system don't cry!
(okay, so i am joking a little)... the point is, people are very helpful - but you have to do some homework yourself first!!! there is plenty of information to read up on!

well...i did read and find out that the Dtec is just a gameboy boost controller.....so what do people use to tune with....the AEM 2000 dollar plug and play thing??? thats a ridiculous price...

 

By-the-by.....I originally wasnt planning to run twin-turbo on a srt-4....as in my signature i had a 04 sxt and i was going to throw the turbo on that....but now im getting a srt-4 and i still have a turbo in the closet....figured i would attempt running twin turbo on the srt-4 because it wouldnt be harder then trying to put a turbo on a N/A car....bolting it up would be easy but the tuning of the two turbos would be the hard part....when i originally mentioned twin-turbo i was hoping for some good links but looks like there havent been many to attempt the project yet..

 

a dtec has NOTHING to do with boost. it's a fuel controller. the gameboy is the interface that you use to tune with. if it makes you feel better you can hook it up to a laptop and do it that way.

the aem thing is a full standalone ems. i highly suggest you don't get one.

 

**** sorry!!!!!!!!!! seen this on modern performance and just assumed that was what Dtec yall kept referring to...apparently not because this is just a boost controller.
