The Dodge SRT-4 was a turbocharged compact car introduced by
DaimlerChrysler's Street and Racing Technology in-house tuner group (originally
known as PVO) in 2003. The SRT-4 was designed for the racing and muscle car
crowd. The SRT-4 differed from a regular Neon, the model on which it was based,
in many ways. From the outside, the SRT-4's unique front fascia was immediately
noticeable.
The stock cams will make ok power up to 400 horsepower, but then become a
considerable restriction. If you need a good street solution, check out these
cams
It also featured a large rear wing and special 17x6 in wheels. Under the hood
was a turbocharged version of the Neon's 2.4 L I4 engine. This first appeared in
the United States in the 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser GT, but had been used in the
Mexican-market Dodge Stratus/Chrysler Cirrus LXi sedan for a few years before
this. The SRT-4 used a New Venture Gear T-850 5-speed manual transmission
(pirated from the Graz-built turbodiesel minivan), equal-length half shafts, and
a high-capacity Sachs performance clutch. Unfortunately these SRT-4 camshafts
are not compatible with Dodge's new Caliber, which features variable valve
timing.
Longer duration profile, added rpm potential. Intended for fully built engine.
