Ok, before things get out of hand again...

1) Stage 2 hasn't been released for the PT yet, so I wouldn't expect an official product description yet (more than likely, the SRT-4 specs will be 98% of what we will find).

2) Tommy Thrift has confirmed that the Stage 2 kit is coming. 3BarBoost said that the release date probably will be 1-2 months after the SRT-4 release. This is due to supplier problems (sensors, turbo toys accessories (SRT-4 only), etc.) Since most of the demand for Stage 2 will be SRT-4 related, doesn't it make sense to appease the SRT-4 crowd first? The squeaky wheel gets the grease...

3) Wait and see...

Everyone has been bellyaching about Stage 2 ever since it was rumored, myself included. My only complaint was the rumored pricing. Since the Stage 2 pricing has been officially announced, I am comfortable with the MSRP and the respective discounting that will no doubt occur. (Stage 1 MSRP = $399 (manual), I have seen it as low as $329) I expect to see similar discounting for Stage 2. Kirby even said Wyckoff is selling the SRT-4 Stage 2 kit for $819 (without toys). JR Motorsports will sell Stage 2 for 10% over cost. Keep that in mind.

I have faith in the Mopar bunch. They know some of us want this kit. I personally held off my Stage 1 purchase in order to go for Stage 2.

Main point: Wait and see. Why waste the banter on something that hasn't even seen the light of day yet?

Me too. I'm as guilty as everyone else as far as the bellyaching. I'm sick of it. We cost ourselves the chance to be included with the Mopar/DCX people like the SRT4 folks are. They have very strict rules about posting with the Mopar/DCX group. Funny, they are for the most part a bunch of kids but have showed respect for the Mopar/DXC group. Unlike we more MATURE people. Maybe we can offer the olive branch and make peace with Mopar/DCX. Set up strict forum rules when it comes to dealing with them. Ban anyone who continously mouths off. What about it Administrator?
