My personal peeves about them are:-They rides as high as alot of SUV's in stock form -The ring and pinion ratio is meant for cruising -The leather could have been better-seriously, plastic coolant passages?-15.1 second ET's for the 4.6 in stock formHowever, they left so much room for improvement, you can reach low 13's like nothing. There aren't many cars that benefit drastically from a ring and pinion swap. Nor, do they gain damn near 30whp from a full exhaust swap and another 30whp for using the next generation's intake/cams. These days, those other cars are over engineered. Between the SRT4's staged mods from Mopar and the minute gains for exhaust/intake bolt-ons for the EVO and STI, there isn't much fun there.Also, remember that those 4's are all turbocharged from the factory. If we get blown, do you think they can even hang with us? I left that world because after a while I learned the cliche a few thousands later, there really is no replacement for displacement.</blockquote>
