anyone form Canada attempted to check this out yet? I went to my dealer, and they had a listing for PN# 5007943, but they had no idea what it entailed....they just had a price: $797.04 CDN. I think it may be "safer" ordering of the mopar site and shipping to Canada...

hi Everyone! I finally made it over to your forum. Thanks to Steve, Mike and Gsharrock - sorry, if I missed anyone else that may have sent me the link.

I am not ready to post yet! [:I]

I have to get you the updated and specific information for the PT Kits (both MTX and ATX). The hp rating and calibration features are different for the PT (compared to the SRT-4). I should be ready to post tomorrow if not, Thursday.

The kits are ready to order, we are taking pre-orders (at a dealer). The information that Steve posted with part numbers and pricing is correct.

The hp rating is different - rated @ 235. The rpm levels are different for both torque and horsepower <--- will post when confirmed by the engineers.

When I am ready I will post all the correct information as well as answer some of the questions that have already posted. I learned a lot posting on the SRT and Neon Forums and I will try to address as many of your questions as possible with 1 post.

We at Mopar and PVO appreciate your interest and want to provide you with the most accurate information we can.

Let me just add this disclaimer to my posts:

On the Mopar.com website:

"Not legal for sale or use on pollution controlled motor vehicles."

Ain't that special! So much for Stage 1 being Emissions qualified.

I think I just posted nothing - on previous - sorry!

The dealers will not see inventory that is why they might say that it is on backorder.

The kit will be shipped directly from our supplier - for this reason, the dealers will never see stock (this can't be an on the shelf part because of the VIN number requirement). Your kit basically is a custom-made part.

You can order with no problem - in fact, I have received 15 orders for PT Kits.

Hope this helps.

UniqTwin -

Is this an ECU exchange? My dealer says I have to bring in my stock ECU when when I pick up the kit. So I guess this is going to be a "parking lot swap", eh? Or is the dealer trying to coerce me into paying them to install the parts?

Inquiring minds want to know.[:I]

There is no core return required. This is stated in the dmail(email) sent to the dealers.

Is this HP difference due to the more restrictive exhaust? Many of us have gone for less restrictive Cat back systems that have shown increased hp on the dyno.

how will the aftermarket intakes and cat back systems fare with the new setup?
