I have to disagree with this one. Sure I wouldn't expect them to honor warranty on a car with nitrious since NOS can be dangerous if not tuned properly or if it gets stuck open. But the stage kits? They themselves sell the Stage kits, but talk about shortening the life of the engine. Whats up with that? The spring mod is BS since the PCM will learn about it after awhile and compensate for it. The SRT guys that have done it, only use it on the track for a temporary boost. It's the same crap DC shovels about the GT speed limited to about 126mph because the car gets aerodynamicly unstable after 130mph. We have seen video of a PT dragster with another engine and RWD that reaches 163mph in the 1/4 mile. Aerodynamicly unstable, huh? Truth of the matter is the stock tires are rated at 130mph, so DC limited the speed so it wouldn't reach the tires' speed rating. DC shovels alot of crap at us, and I personally was screwed by them. I might buy an SRT-4 after I pay off Junior, then again Junior might be the last DC I ever buy.
