War wagon



That's the engine bay from the wagon
While it looks ricey, I can assure you everything there was serving a purpose

No fake scoops, scallops etc on that car. In fact I had removed the hood scoop cause it served no purpose once I went to a front mount intercooler. Took soooooo much flak for that car..
Subaru guys hated it, wasn't a rally car or time attack car, drag strip guys took ALONG TIME to accept it and some just wouldn't .

And for me , well it just wasn't a Mopar.  :yesnod:

How much was invested under there?

Far too much :brickwall: :brickwall:
Let's just say I could have bought a Niiice HEMI wing car with what ended up in that car during my need for speed. And I took a huge loss getting rid of it. :icon_smile_blackeye: :-\
There was 27k in the motor alone without turbo setup. 6500 just in machine work. Darton sleeves, heli coiled 1/2" head studs to keep heads on block , o-ringed etc etc
It was truly a daily driver gone wrong, that car had 3 motors, 6 turbos, 3 trannys,countless axles, and many other parts over the years.
I bought it new, and proceeded to put 330,000kms on the street with it. This wasn't a toy that got used on wknds.
Took a very long time and a lot of learning to make things bulletproof for the abuse it saw.
Car launched at 7000rpm on 4 slicks with AWD, 0-60 in 2.1 secs
Would I do it all again......
NO F#%*^+*# Way!!!

Hindsight is 20/20 thou isn't it...

You guys notice that the account name for the kid who posted the video is 'nottasrt' as in 'not a SRT'.  There's a good chance it's a riced neon with a wing which makes all the ridicule 100% valid.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
