Sacicons im surprised at you if anyone gets the nod on imports i think dodge is the only company that tried it and did a damn good job, i just sold my 1992 Dodge Daytona Shelby Turbo, it was a 2.5L 4 cylinder turbo, when u pop the hood it was an eclipse 1st gen that dodge and carol shelby designed... that car was a work of art and stock kick the crap out of many 1st and 2nd gens in the area.. the intake had a setup with the factory bov that sounded decent and alot of ideas that are now standard on many imports that are stock turbos, the big deal is there were around 200 92 daytona turbos made i was told ihad the only known white shelby of that year on the dodge forum... i think dodge earned their import badge... their extensive research in turboed cars dates back to 1984, way before mitsu and honda made their mark ..... i hate to sound like this but i hate it when dodge gets hated on, i had a wrangler and currently rock the 98 grand cherokee till the honda gets on the road......

The reason for this is that Dodge isn't an import... it didn't have to move into a new country and establish itself and get a customer base going.

k, dodge is the only american company i will give credit to ON ENGINES (import style anyway) but the chassis's arent as good as most Jap cars, and thats hard to argue. i mean, those SRT-4 engines say it all. but just cause it can hang with an EVO or STI in the quarter, doesnt mean its as good as they are. its not even in the same league as them (i know thats a little off topic) oh, and i just found out that the new Vipers get a little respect too. they have OHCs, and 4 valves per cylinder. damn. THATS a muscle car! no freakin pushrods!
