Any plans for TT kit?

Hello,

I was just wondering if anyone is planning on doing TT. If it cost 30G for stroker kit than why not TT kit for it?

You can buy the stroker kit for about 3K.

someone tried - there's a couple running around

the biggest factor is the engines require different pistons so need an engine build to do it right as the stock pistons have a high ring land that is perfect for n/a but not good under pressure. If there is any detonation they blow up - so anyone making a kit on stock pistons will have a warranty not worth a can of dog turds unless they plan on going broke.

By the time you build a 6.1 up then TT it - you are starting to dip into the kind of money very few SRT8 owners will want to spend... tho it'd make a great car and the Merc 5 sp auto would be up to it with some tweaks and decent cooling.

I looked at buying an SRT8 recently, drove one SRT8 making 342rwkw (458rwhp) and to be honest it felt slow... the cars sound awesome but are very heavy. I could not justify blowing $100k (cost of a modded one out here.... mutter mutter) on it.

A TT would really wake them up - but without decent blower friendly pistons it just is a bad idea unless you keep boost down and run a very good custom program to ensure there is no detonation ever.
