Oh man..., another tuner question. OK. Here goes. You have several great options there, my friend.

EVO Dynamics - Lewisville
JMS Racing - San Antonio

If remote tuning is your thing...

Mellon Racing
TComp

I have seen it happen on the SRT4, but the coil pack is right in front of the turbo. On an EVO though no. I would think someone would have to be here last summer in that heat wave running the heck out their car for that to happen.

Does anyone have a stock IX turbo they want to sell? I'm thinking it would be a cheap up grade for the SRT4. From what I have been hearing the EVO turbo is a direct bolt on with the mopar stage 3 manifold. Just some oil and coolant line tweaking is needed. I have seen done on the SRT forums. I'll be out tonight at Cato

So a pull on bad gas caused yours... hmm.. well my buddys eight keeps going through coilpacks for no reason he took it to a shop down here in houston but typically he got srcewed over by them. They gave the runaround talking about his wiring was messed up so they supposidly fixed it but didn't fix the problem and now they're saying it could be his ecu
