You guys are planning on supporting these, right? Factory turbos means easy power. Plus they're running 12's already! :o

May buy one for a work car since the Jeep gets such wonderful economy. :roll:

I had the oppontunity to drive one of these last weekend. Thing feels like it weighs 3 tons! I don't know the exact numbers, but from the way it drives, its gotta weigh almost as much as my Jeep (4721lb). It goes pretty good, but handling is awful. I know I'm gonna get hate for this, but it feels like its still a Five Hundred, with a bigger motor. Its nothing like the older SHO's which were slow but handled great, for what they were.

Bummer.

We have a local one coming by in the next week or two to throw a tune on and do some testing....

Doubtful. Find out if its the same ECU as the SHO. If its is you have a much better shot then if its not.
