Is modding a chrysler Crossfire Worth it?

[@Octipies]

i just got a crossfire myself, and ironically i go to burger stop all the time! nice to see some locals with the same car

[@ElvisCarReviews]

Oh really? do you have any mods on your car or it's still stock?

[@Octipies]

Sadly just stock but this video gave me some great ideas on what i can add, thanks!

[@DaCake2]

Great video. How much more HP would you say he got from the mods? It was never mentioned.

[@ElvisCarReviews]

@@DaCake2 close to 400

[@DaCake2]

@@ElvisCarReviews 400 total, correct? Wow. That’s insane. That’s almost an additional 200 hp! Impressive and I’m definitely gonna have to look into doing similar mods to mine.

[@Drivewaybuilt]

My first serious mod to mine was tearing it apart and swapping in a turbo LS - still working on it.

[@DaCake2]

@@Drivewaybuilt I would love to add a turbo to mine. Would you mind sharing where I could go to learn more about it and also how much more HP it usually ads?

[@Drivewaybuilt]

@@DaCake2 Sticking with the stock v6 heavily limits the power adding ability. I swapped in a V8 which opened up the modding ability

[@srtology]

I’ve never driven a NA crossfire. I own a modded srt6 and I have 197k on mine. Goal is to have it until 300k. I want be the highest mileage srt6 on the road. It eats rear tires like nothing though.

[@ElvisCarReviews]

SRTology It’s a great car

[@josephwebb5889]

SRTology have you had any major issues with your Srt6?

[@samirsmudge]

Wishing you more than the 300,000 miles. These engines are even better than the regular 3.2 because they are hand built and bullet proof.

[@ChrisHally45]

😲 $700 for a C.A.I ?! Whoa

[@samirsmudge]

I have the Eurocharged tune on my 2005 NA automatic Roadster and the 74mm larger throttle body. I did the tune first and noticed a bit of power increase along with smoother power and torque all the way to the redline. After swapping the stock throttle body for the larger one and retuning, the car was transformed and finally felt responsive and adequate. With traction control off, I spin'em off the line and also break the tires loose when it shifts to second in around 55 degree weather. This is with sticky tires already warmed up. I often drive the car in winter mode to take advantage of the added torque. I may someday install a CAI if I find a used one for good price as the air supply is one of the Crossfire's weak point. This is one of the most underestimated car out there. I also have an SRT6 hardtop that I think I will sell before it gets me into trouble. It was plenty fast when I first got it, but became seriously fast after a Eurocharged tune. This means going from 330hp to claimed 368hp. It seriously feels faster and the power is smoother as well. The only inconvenience is putting the power to the asphalt. It was easy to break them loose before but after the tune it is way too easy to do. It feels very much like a muscle car while being refined.

[@tchrisou812]

On your 05 NA with the new throttle body and Eurocharched tune, what would you estimate the 0-60 time to be? any hp increase test or guess?

[@samirsmudge]

I first did the tune and drove it for a while until i got the throttle body upgrade. It felt like it had noticeably more and smoother power all the way to the red line after just the tune. After the throttle body upgrade, i re-tuned it and it was much better. The car was a LOT more responsive both in the city and on the freeway. I often use it with the winter switch on the transmission shifter since it has a lot more torque. I am not sure about 0-60 time, but on cool days i can't keep the tires from doing a burn out with traction control off. I usually have to let go of the gas and gradually re-accelerate to try to get traction. I have the Hanhook Ventus which are good tires too. Below is the link for the tune and HP claim, so with throttle body it will be a bit more. I highly recommend it. These two mods made such a difference in the car. It is now very adequate on the road. I paid $250 for the tune. www.eurocharged.com/products/chrysler/crossfire-na/crossfire-na-performance-engine-software

[@DeChronics]

Samir Bachour Correct me if I’m wrong but I’m certain that Winter Mode eliminates first and makes you start off in second or changes the rpms so the car shifts before they get to high. Which should decrease torque, not increase it. Plus, W mode was made to prevent the loss of traction

[@samirsmudge]

@@DeChronicsSorry, i just saw your comment. I could never find the proper information about the Mercedes Benz Winter mode, but from my experience, it just starts in second gear. I did not notice any difference in shift points (as i have heard) or any decrease in torque. And if i floor it in W mode, it downshifts to first instantly. I actually love cruising around town in W mode. I also like to urban race in it since it does not rev the engine at take off, and does not waste time shifting into second. On cool days i love the smooth pull that pushes me into my seat from the torque. :)

[@DaCake2]

I've owned my 2005 Limited Roadster for almost 15 years and I never knew winter mode added more torque. 🤦🏻‍♂ I've been driving it on summer mode its entire life. How much more torque do you get?

[@armonianumerica5830]

nice vid. i have a black 2004 crossfire 6 speeds with 28000 miles stock. i think that i will do some upgrades soon.thanks 4 the mods list bro..

[@ElvisCarReviews]

You're welcome, and welcome to the Crossfire family.

[@TheJoeeReflex]

I have the srt6, got it at 70k km now I'm at 98k, got the single cold air Intake aswell, cars pretty quick! 4.8 0-60mph even though I feel like it's quicker then that.. and for 2200$ I can go from 330hp to 400+ hp and 420+ torque, car would be like a mini gtr. Gonna try wrap it, new rims, front and side splitters, anddddd I'll be happy

[@TheJoeeReflex]

purchased it for 14k Canadian, can't really get a more sporty and RARE car for that price.. also looks way better in person. I love being unique on the road

[@SpudEater]

I am leaning towards the crossfire..Oh boy.

[@ElvisCarReviews]

Ryder21 get STR6 crossfire if you can afford it

[@samirsmudge]

Get one! If you want incredible power, get the SRT6. Otherwise the definitely NA is respectable with a few mods.

[@duckthis17]

Nice vid.What do you think is the max HP you could get with add ons and tunes with the non supercharged 3.2 ?

[@ElvisCarReviews]

You can max it at 400 hp, but it will cost you a lot. There is a review coming up in August of a non-supercharged 3.2 that's pushing 380 HP to the wheel. Stay tuned for that. Do you have a crossfire?

[@duckthis17]

No I don't own one yet,but I will soon.I was really disappointed that they did not make an srt in white.I am normally not a fan of white cars but the crossfire in white is my favorite.Was basically wondering what could be done with say 2 thousand or less.Thanks

[@ElvisCarReviews]

You can get one in black or silver. With $2k you can definitely do a lot to the car If you want I can send you the list of mods, their price and how much horsepower increase per part

[@duckthis17]

Ya I normally like a roadsters in black,but the crossfire looks awesome to me in white.Probably will have to go with one of the other colors,if I want the srt6 performance.That would be great if you could send that info.Thanks

[@ElvisCarReviews]

You can always wrap it if you can't find one with the color you like

[@meanstreetsuk]

I don’t think the video answered the question “is modifying a Crossfire worth it”. Ok so we heard about 2 things fitted aftermarket?

[@ElvisCarReviews]

Yes with the right mods it’s worth it

[@Gorilla_Jones]

The issue with the Crossfire is that it’s cheap enough that people who have no idea WTF they’re doing keep buying and ruining these cars with ricer bullshit. 🤦‍♂️ There is a proper way to mod cars, try to make it look factory, period. Any mod you do plan it out and try to mimic what a manufacturer would have done. Stop destroying the limited pool of cars with ricer bullshit please.

[@DreCarFinder]

damn I just got the same exact one last week...should I get the dual cai or 1?

[@ElvisCarReviews]

depend on what you're trying to improve

[@hansgerd8069]

None. Get the s class air filter. C or e class are working, too.

[@bmarie8965]

I just wish they made the spoiler larger

[@carterprior1674]

I love my crossfire . Looking at a new exhaust and a stage two supercharger for it

[@DaCake2]

Did you ever end up adding those mods? I'm looking to do the same right now as well.

[@timberwolf27]

So, could a Merc Kompressor unit be fitted to that? Would it even work?

[@ElvisCarReviews]

Yes

[@timberwolf27]

Are there obv better performance superchargers though? Kompressor being a stock part, or is it bang for buck?

700 bucks for a CAI? Who pays that much?? Lmao

[@shamilton6328]

100% agree. I got it too only the duals and the reason for it is there is ZERO room in the engine bay. He paid to get it coated blue which is a waste of $100 and a larger filter.

[@rickyhogan2749]

Nice Car

[@larryespinoza9040]

Hey Cory... You should swap out the stock 68mm Throttle body (TB) and upgrade it with the 74mm TB. I don't have the Cold Air Intake (CAI) on my 2004 N/A but I did this swap/upgrade and it feels great, especially on the upper end. I know the swap would match great with your CAI and Cat-Back Exhaust. I did this upgrade last month and it only took 30 mins (including clean up). I paid $30 for the TB on Ebay (free shipping too). The TB I got was from a 2009 Mercedes C Class (V8). Part number A1131410125. For more info check out Team SBSP: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKvCZmiebc-rpqs

[@larryespinoza9040]

paul austin hi there... actually my 74 tb was from a Mercedes S500 (V8). I believe you can snatch these tb's from any Mercedes V8 as long as it has the same part number. As for the intake manifold, to my knowledge it is the standard 68. And I do not think you need to bore out your intake manifold, although that may not be a bad idea. Even with the tb upgrade in my foxbody Mustang (1990), i did not need to bore out my manifold. However, i did stuff a sock into the intake and lightly grind out the outer lip so that there was less restriction of air going from the manifold to the tb. I hope this answered your questions.
