No I just wouldn't classify a stock srt-6 as "high horsepower" that's all.

it can be a bit subjective. you're right. for its hp/weight, it's no 2010 murcielago. i would say for its package, amg accoutrements, and ancillary build-quality factored in, it's a "healthy horsepower" candidate. now, i would classify the veyron as hp/weight "high horsepower." i'm still working on the preferred hermes edition myself.

I'm glad someone else gets it. Horsepower "levels" are really subjective based on what vehicle you're talking about

HAHA! My wife uploaded that to our account. That is a 6 pound chihuahua that can jump damn near 4 feet in the air.


Thanks guys for the info, I'm in the process of getting a new bearing from NeedsWings now...and yeah...I swore I had purchased one in the group buy, but it is nowhere to be found.

The problem right now is I have that Code 3 Pulley. I do have a stock pulley WITH a new bearing, but I don't really want to walk up to my dealership and show them the difference between the two.......it's so subtle until you have them side by side.

You can tell the idler pulley is shot from the noise/video, or just from the fact that it is going to fail eventually...?

i use a mechanics stethoscope and check all my idlers. thats how i found them going bad. i went thru 3 idlers in 1 yr. the psk eliminated all the worries. bunches of threads on the bearings on mbworld

I consider the SRT6 a fairly high powered street car based on % of other cars you see everyday of the week when you go for a drive. At the track its a different story though

Fast? 300 mph is slow. I was going almost twice that fast just yesterday.
Course, I could not actually get anyone to let me drive. Something about a
need for a license and certification on an A320 Airbus...
