    First post

    I have mostly been reading the posts but it is only fair that I contribute also. I have a 05 Magnum AWD 6 cylinder and there is a lot that I love about the car and a lot that I don't. Power (or the lag that I get when I give it gas) is my biggest beef. I guess I got spoiled with my previous car (03 Vette Z06) but when I give it gas I expect to get an immediate response not the lag I get now. Is this something that is normal with the 6 cylinder.

    The room and versality of the car has to be the one thing I like most about the car.

    Looking forward to getting more involved.

    Welcome.

    Try disconnecting the negative battery cable for a minute. Then go for a drive, see if it is more responsive.

    Beyond that, a CAI will help, maybe a Jetchip. It's never going to be a Corvette though.

    If you can solve your problem, then what is the need of worrying? If you cannot solve it, then what is the use of worrying?
