Sounds good. PM when you are ready.

I have a stock 3.0 spirit I have been wantin to dyno just to see what it really has not just what dodge said. And I have some other things to put on after a full stock run. ported intake mani, 52mm TB, 8.5mm wires and underdrive pullies just to see what that adds

welcome to the forum!!!! you should post some pics of your spirit! our cars are very anemic from the factory. they respond well to mods! especially any thing that helps air flow weather in or out!!!!

Ill work on gettin some pictures as soon as all this snow leaves I'm kinda snowed in at the moment. Also I have been looking everywhere and have found no answer. But my buddy has a stealth tt and he got a new aftermarket intake manifold would that fit right on my car since there both 6g72 just his is the Dohc. Cause I would imagine it would flow a lot better. Also should I go with 2.25 exhaust or 2.5. I'm gettin rid of my cat cause there is no emissions testing where I live. I seen where a guy has posted before and was dissapointed with the 2.5 all the way back

the intake wont work on your motor. the intake is designed for the 24 valve only and wont work on out 12 valve motors. if you want a better intake you can port yours or try a montoro intake or a stealth 12 valve intake. both flow better than ours but they do move the throttle body to the front of the motor.

[Army4life73]

Ok I will look into that what about the exhaust should I go with 2.5 or 2.25. Cause it seems like around 5k-5500 rpm it almost falls on its face.

[Shadow24V]

Welcome! And yes, unfortunately the DOHC upper intakes are not compatible with the chrysler intake system. As knightmoves mentioned, an SOHC stealth intake or a montero one would probably be a bit of an upgrade.

IRGT the exhaust, I would go with 2.5" or 3". That should support any mods you do in the future, including going to forced induction. Case and point, on my 24v 3.0 I have headers, a high flow cat and 2.5" exhaust. No issues so far and a pending M90 supercharger.

[Army4life73]

Ok thanks I will probably go with the 2.5. And no cat. Also what would be a good single in dual out exhaust that's not gonna be obnoxious loud. Also don't mean to get off subject but is there any way to get rid of the distributer and go to coil packs.
