    RedeyeJedi reacted to FFemerson in Disappointed with "Premium" sound in '14. Options?   
    It's a joke, really. I like having the navigation, the back up camera is a cute little commodity that is a great show off piece, but is rarely used. They didn't have an R/T without the premium sound, or I wouldn't have gotten it. I've always been really big into car audio up until a few years ago. I know the kind of system you can get for 1/4 of the price of one of these "premium" audio systems.
    The thing that puts me over the edge though is the fact that my wife's Dart, with the base speakers, has soooo much better bass output than my car does. If you had told me she had a premium system with 8" subwoofer, I'd believe it. My Journey basically sounds like I have tweeters in the car, and all of my bass coming from a 3.5" speaker located somewhere under a seat.

    No one is talking to you!!
    Kidding... The 3.6 (though not captured well on youtube) sounds pretty close to a V8. Obviously it's not, but I'm amazed how good some of these 6 cylinder engines sound these days. I've always been partial to the dodge and ford sound though.
    There are definitely some improvements in throttle response and torque, even with today's computer controlled engines. I think what he isn't getting at is that you aren't getting the full benefit. That being said, it sure is fun!

    Cant we all just get along?!?!???!!.......... I have a dual exhaust Magnaflow on my 2010 SXT AWD and I notice a difference and it has good sound. Its not loud. I didnt want it loud cause I didnt want to TRY to make it sound like a V8 and not come close. Mine fit just fine with my hitch.
    However I still dont like the power output of my 3.5....... it sucks. I know that the 3.6 in the 2013 and up are much better.......I drove one. But Im not gonna trade mine or sell mine yet. Im waiting for the new SRT Journeys coming in 2016 or 2017. I bought mine used in 2013 and at that time I didnt know that the 2013 had a much better motor but thats my fault for not doing more research. Live and learn.

    The vehicle will likely adapt to it with all of the computer interaction, but you still get the benefit of sound and appearance at a minimum... Could always reset the computer every once in a while too. Some people just like to tinker with their vehicles. I am one of them, but I haven't done any intake or exhaust mods on my last two because I figured the computer would just adapt to it and nullify gains. Getting too old and crabby to deal with the sound anymore...

    Don't....mess...with...the exhaust. It does NOTHING except make cabin noise. Nothing, Zip, Zilch, Nada....Could put tips and leave the mufflers alone and get the same look without the drone.

    I'd like to see your math... the prices were for the concentrate which would be diluted. Could be even cheaper!

    Sounds like, based on the article jkeaton linked, Chrysler has not released the formula yet... Given that, I wouldn't expect it to be available from aftermarket manufacturers for a while. Luckily, like we have jokingly alluded to, there shouldn't be a need to replace it (outside of work being done on the cooling system) for quite some time. Since you are under warranty you should be able to have any cooling system repairs done at the dealer free of charge for at least a few years; by then someone else will be offering it.

    Ha! Ummmm.... Last time I saw something that was called a magic bullet it wasn't used for making peanut butter. It was a "massager" of sorts. Maybe that was why the peanut butter was "crappy"! Ha!

    Wow, the cost of 100k coolant is only .0004/mile. Its a deal breaker... Where as fuel costs roughly .15/mile
    Synthetic oil runs ( from the shop I go to ) .013/mile and standard oil is .013/mile

    Personally, I like the contrasting colors. Id do gloss black with your color scheme. Flat black on wheels just looks cheap IMO, unless its a tuner or race car.

    Then disconnect the negative side of the battery at the

    the TIPM and associated electronics to see if that
    clears it up.
