How fast is it stock in the 1/4 mile?
One of the new guys at work has one and its bone stock. He told me he ran a 12.5 STOCK. I dont beleive him at all. High 13s maybe but not 12.5. He was also saying he was going to change out the coil overs for springs and i was thinking to myself.....did they come with coil overs, i dont think so.
Im pretty sure this guy is full of shit. What do you think?

As far as the supension, he is confused. The front struts look almost the same as a Neons, but the rear strut does look a little like a coil-over.

Thats what i thought.
He also told me he was gonna add a 100 shot of "NOS" to spool the turbo up faster.

The rear strut looks like a penis. A red-tipped penis:


So many neons so little time.

That guy is amazing...
12.5 is what a good driver does in a Charger SRT8.
Who would want to change out coilovers for springs?
I would love to see that vehicle try and hold a 100 shot. And that turbo spools almost instantly. Anyway that will be one less Caliber on the road !

I think he lolled cause it's not gonna spool the turbo "quicker". It's still gonna spool in it's normal rpm range.

Nitrous does help larger turbos spool up... so he's not TOTALLY off... but the TD04s (not sure whats used on the CSRT-4) spool pretty quickly as is...

Caliber SRTs have an S3 turbo from the factory so its larger, but not that much larger that it needs a 100 shot to spool. He is tard.

.. thats a load right there..
14-15PSI stock.. thankyaverymuch.
and they run low 14s stock. Higher elevations are usually between 13.9-14.2
around my area... 14.4-14.6 is apparently normal.
if anyone is confused... you should be able to read my license plate frame. That should clean up the 1/4 mile time confusion lol
