Thanks for the info. I'm not that familiar with turbo cars. How much power could we be looking at from an improved intercooler? Are we talking 5-10hp, 20-40hp or more?

We can only hope. That should demolish the Z28 on the track and pretty much anything else. What you think a FPC turning 8500 rpm, 550hp and sticky 325 tires would do at the drag strip? Solid 11.5 - 11.2....tens with a good driver?? I think with the weight differential it would take...

That would be beautiful cleaned and waxed. Look the first picture where the right side of the hood meets the right fender. Is there about a 1/4 inch misalignment or is that just camera angle?

Do you happen to know if they plan to offer an automatic in the Focus ST?

INTERIOR - Impressed PRICE - Not impressed LOOKS - Not impressed ( I think it's improved, but not impressively improved) MPG's - Not impressed Performance -..............................the last piece of the puzzle. This will be the key issue to me. Seems it's coming down to...

I think it will be available as long as there is a sufficient market, but look at the f150, it seems people prefer the EB to the NA v8. If it ever gets to the point where only a few people opt for the V8, then they will probably drop it. I think they are going to eventually go toward...

I'm not going to be taking an expensive car around any corners at it's limit so the standard seats should be fine from a performance aspect. I do like less weight. I know I'm probably in the minority, but I don't like the way the headrest is so big on the Recaros. I like the look of standard...

Yes, to me, it's all about fun. How much fun you can have for the money or most fun for the buck. Here is what draws me to the EB. If I buy a GT, everyone will know it's fast and if I mod it, it will be faster still. If I go to the track and outrun a Camaro SS or Challenger RT, it's really no...

Yes, the CS had the gray paint and the PP had the gloss black. I would like the gloss black. Seems like someone would still be making them, but I guess I would have to keep checking craig's list or ebay.

I love those wheels, can you still buy them anywhere?

I like the sport muscle better than the PP wheels. They remind me of the wheels on the Explorer Sport.

Exactly! GT500 low 12's high 11's. So the Hellcat with lower power to weight ratio mid 12's low 12's.

Edmunds is going off the dash read out and also, they say that it is one full second faster than the GT500 in the quarter meaning that the GT500 runs a 12.4. Seems they have no idea what they are talking about. If you are in the business of evaluating cars, you should at least take it to a strip...

Dodge said it was stock...don't believe everything you hear on the internet. Three tests so far and it don't look like it can be done:lol: Actually, I do have experience on the drag strip. I've modded up some cars before putting drag radials on them and when you have a whole lot of power and...

Didn't conveniently leave out anything, I figured you could read Dodges excuses if you were interested. You seriously think a 707 HP car on skinny street tires is going to get traction at any track :crazy: You probably think a car like this can run consistent 11.2's:crazy: So yeah, great...

Autobytel just tested the Hellcat. I can't figure out how to post the link but you can google Autobytel hellcat review and find it. Here is a quote from the review: "Neither myself nor any of the SRT engineers present at Portland International were able to get within more than a second of...

From the autobytel test/review. I couldn't figure out how to paste a link, but you can google autobytel hellcat review. "Neither myself nor any of the SRT engineers present at Portland International were able to get within more than a second of Dodge’s advertised mid-three-second 0-60...

This is funny...lol... [ame] But yeah, I think it's an awesome car and very close to the GT 500, but with a better power to weight ratio the GT 500 should be faster. I think with these two cars, both having more power than tire, it's going to come down to which car has the best traction...

You don't know what they took out or anything else about the car. Common sense would be releasing a number that at least 50% of people can achieve. That way, they will be viewed as honest as opposed to deceitful.

Interestingly, back in 1984 - 1986 Ford held the Guiness Book of World records for the fastest production car. The Ford RS200 E1. It was a four cylinder turbocharged all wheel drive Escort. They made and sold 200 street legal versions to meet qualifications to race. Acceleration from rest...
