i know it was stated before to keep it on topic, but i'm really curious to see how many people are running aftermarket axles. this is the deciding factor in me buying stage 3 w/toys. i appreciate any response.
Stage 3 does run low 12's. Time in my sig is a bare bones stage 3 kit w/ just a catback. Stock box and stock downpipe still on the car for that run. I now have the mopar downpipe so hopefully an 11 will come out of that.
Holy poop! So you ran a 12.2 with JUST a Mopar catback and Stage 3 in HOM? No other mods. Not even an STS or the Mopar BOV? (I know these don't add power. I just threw these out there cause they're common mods and I'm just saying state all your mods down even to STS and BOV.) Thanks. That's frickin' sweet! I still can't get over the badass torque curve with Stage 3R. It seems like once you hit 3000 rpm you're into some badass torque !
Okay, now that we've all acheived peace and enlightenment, I'll be bringing in a Modozer to clean up. The questions were good, the answers informative, so don't think I'm being a bitch about it, but discussion makes it hard for folks to get a quick feel for how stage 3 performs in the quarter.

Sorry Bill, but Farani I also have an sts and Mopar BOV and the Mopar performance filter, Mopar wires and ngk's at .40. That's it. No joke. Back on topic now.

Sorry, I have one more off-topic question for you. Go ahead and clean all this up just wanted to ask this one more thing. Were you running drag radials or slicks or was this street tires? Stock tires? I'm running 225's proxes 4's. Thanks. Sorry again. Last time, I promise.
Chris, I actually picked you up a set of first gen AEM cam gears that are modified for use on a 2.4. They are the same setup that I put on Andy's car. They work perfectly and are much better quality than the Fidanza gears.
these s3 times are slower than i expected...i was under the impression that s3 with supporting mods could run high 11's/ low 12's.
slower?
trapping 118+ on street tires running 12.5 or 12.6 with a front drive is anything but slow.
what do you think a big AGP turbo'd srt will run on 18" street tires?
