My 03 CLS6 VS 10 Jeep SRT-8
I was talking to the owner of the srt-8 jeep at my friends shop while hanging out today. He said when he went to the track he was able to run a 13.0 with only a intake and I think he said tune but I'm not 100% sure. I know they have a 6.1L hemi and make around 420hp, and run a 13.2 stock. So we both go to leave at the same time and I asked if he wanted to run. I figured what the hell I'll probably lose but I'll get to see how my car compares. At first he wanted to run from a dig but i said no way since he's awd. So the first run we went from about a 20mph roll and we both were side by side for a second since I spun a little but as soon as I hooked I started to pull away. We stopped at about 100mph since I was ahead by about two cars. I rolled down my window and his face was priceless he was in shock. I was laughing and said would you like to go again but this time from about a 45mph roll? He said sure. So we both hit it at the same time and I instantly started to pull away we went to about 110mph and I had about 2 1/2 cars this time.
We cruised together for awhile until we got back to a main area and both caught a stop light, he pulled beside me and was like what's in that thing. I said just a 3.2 v6 with full bolt on's. He was very surprised. Hope you guys enjoy! |
Nice kills!

Hope you guys enjoy! now really what mods do u have ? i dont see hw it stacks up, not unless u stroked and charged, were u spraying ???:ugh: may be he is just a bad driver .. nice kill either way......... |
Its not really strange. His car put down over 270whp IIRC.
Racing from a roll, this car can definitely punch above its weight class. Its running from a dig where FWD rears its ugly head. Nice kills btw :thumbsup: Once we get those axles we should run :D |

now really what mods do u have ? i dont see hw it stacks up, not unless u stroked and charged, were u spraying ???:ugh: may be he is just a bad driver .. nice kill either way......... (I'll just copy and paste the list from my build thread) Modified comptech headers, Custom j pipe, Custom mid pipe, vibrant ultra quiet resonator, Modified comptech mufflers, Custom 3.5 cold air intake, Unorthodox lightweight pulleys, P2r plenums, P2r throttle body spacer, and P2r thermal gaskets. The only things left are aem fic, DSS 2.9 axles, hoosier slicks, clutch masters stage 3 clutch kit with aasco aluminum flywheel, and spray. Then I will have full bolt on's and I'll be very satisfied with the car performance wise. |

I might be a little closer to your numbers once I do those last few mods but who knows will see. I don't mind running you but no promising I'm not going to spray on you once those axles and slicks are on since you have a slight advantage over me hahaha :tongue:. |

You apparently do not know me that well :rofl:
I keep my future mods quiet. Only when they are on the car will I release info on the forum. |

Nice run. The jeep is ridiculous off the line. Even without brake torquing we've been able to take 911's and gt-r's off the line but of course without a charger or turbo its damn near impossible to hold fast cars off after getting going. I raced a jeep SRT from about a 60 roll before I got mine and slowly pulled on it in the CL-SC so it's no surprise he preferred going from a dig. Any CL with probably 250-260+whp will stay with a jeep from a roll or pull on it. It surprisingly doesn't feel heavy for a truck while driving despite the fact that it is.
We need to get all the heavily modded cl's together for a fun track meet or something one day. I'd love to see all of you guys' rides |
Yeah I know they are quick from a dig that's why I told him from a roll lol. Even then I didn't think the outcome would be what it was. They are bad ass suv's so I still have respect for it.
That sounds like a plan maybe we all can do a track rental if not we can all just meet at the track like you said. It would be nice to see some other modded cl's in person and actually get to race a few :wish:. |
:werd: Id love to get all the fastest CLs in one place :drag:

Maybe he didn't turn off his ESP. And if he didn't have a tune, or it wasn't setup right, the ECU's TQ management will kick in. Also all SRT8's have an issue where if your cruising at a certain low RPM & then gun it the trans will refuse to downshift. It's a design issue of some sort. A better tune or valve body upgrade will fix that. I upgraded mine recently.
It's a different shifting animal now. |
Hmm...this is very interesting. A buddy on my softball team has the SRT8 with I believe the same mods, CAI/tune. He said he hasn't lost a run yet. I wouldn't doubt it assuming they have all been from a dig. This gives me a little hope in keeping up from a roll...

It's a different shifting animal now. Since he went from a roll I'd hope that he used the auto stick (1-5). That definitely makes a difference too. |
