The new 2003 Dodge SRT-4 (Street and Racing Technology, four cylinders) is powered by an intercooled, turbocharged version of Dodge's 2.4 liter engine. It is rated at 215 hp (@ 5,400 rpm) and 245 lb. ft. of torque (@3,200-4,200 rpm). The turbo four couples to a five speed stick and pulls only 2,939 lb. Capable of high five 0-60's, able to turn the quarter mile in the low 14's and governed at a 148 mph top end, the SRT-4 is flat out speedy. Only Viper is quicker in the Mopar lineup. Dodge SRT-4
Very close in weight with both around 3,000 lbs, HP close 200 vs. 215 but wow! touque is going to hurt 245 to our 169. Looks like this little 4-door will wax our A$$ stock vs. stock. More mods, more mods!!! I would love to knock off one of these before one gets us 1st. While I was never a Ford man until my 00 CSVT (diehard Chevy & Pontiac family) I have definitly never been a Mopar fan. We have a goal to do away with all stock SVT's and raise our perf numbers above these new kids on the block! Stock is not so hot anymore
