I have a srt-4 and a TC.

The camera in the car is a TC and the other is a srt4 with a FMIC and Dump Exhaust maybe some other things..

Stock the srt4 is at 220-230whp. It can handle 500whp on stock internals.

I don't see why a 125 shot will hurt the TC. It's a 2.4l with low comp. I'm sure it's fine.
I know all about the srt4 and TC and I sure know what they look like ;)

just went out to smoke a cig, and thought is that 60-80 hp for the tc supercharger without the intercooler that they might add? any thoughts?

yes the tC can take 125 shot. We have run 175 shot on ours to see the limits of the tC and components.

ScummyMcOwnage: Hopefuly without the IC. :D

And PunkInDrublic: The tC is already about as fast as a GTI, stock. I raced my friend, who owns a GTI (1.8t) 3 times from a stop. All were close.

1st time he had traction-control on. I won that one by a bit.
2nd time he had it off and he passed me at about 80mph.
3rd time I was in his car w/o traction control and I won with him right on my heels, though I think I jumped the gun a bit.

But of course my friend, whos been driving nothing but stick ever sense he's had a car sucks at it more than me, who is relatively new. Also, my car is probably a factory-freak. And all of those other automatic responses that people get for doing well against cars that are rated as faster. I'm just telling you what happend, and I'll make a vid if I ever get a vid recorder that can put vids online.

My friend has an 05 GTI 1.8T, but he's not that great at the launch yet. I beat his 5 speed with my Auto Slushbox by a car length. A decent launch, and it would be VERY close.

I have a SSM AT tC

Automatics are called slushboxes because of the slushy properties of the transmissions verses manuals.

Question: I'm not too familiar with IC. What's a good average gain for a IC on a car like the tC?

i drive an SRT -4 and although the stock intercooler is good to about 400+ HP, there has been gains of around 20 horses from a larger upgraded intercooler, just like the one in the video is running.....to clarify, the SRT-4 (not neon) on the video had a 3 inch exhaust that dumps under the car after the cat and an upgraded intercooler
