Tbh, 639 rwhp doesn’t feel like very much power to me at all, which is the reason why I keep wanting to add more. I’m thinking 875 rwhp would be enough to keep me content for a little while.
Alot of that feeling I relate to. Think it's that these cars are so much heavier then what they should be IMHO. If these cars were 3300lbs and made 600+ I think it would change alot of feelings.

that’s actually the setup I was looking at, the dw400 and boost a pump
You won't need that Bap at that power level, and it's a point of potential failure. Just, sayin'.

If you’re bored now, do yourself a favor and plan ahead for a fuel system and get a G3, cuz you’re gonna get bored again with the 120mm and 93. That was my plan to run 93 and 120mm forever, that didn’t last long.

Btw a stock hellcat is probably only a little faster than your car depending on your mods.

So you would probably get bored and want to mod the hellcat too fyi. Gt350 is slower than your car but will be better on a track.

I think if your main goal is more power than boost your car

I agree. Turn up the wick with boost.

Recently added the G2, with GT500 injectors on my 22'

Based on info I gathered(this isn't gospel) If Youre just shooting for 600whp the stock fuel pump would be functional, BAP would be better, DW400 would be great, DW400+BAP would be overkill.

I could be wrong.

On stock pump right now, with GT500 injectors will add DW400 at some point soonish.

It is, and I would. I lost by a door length or two to a manual hellcat the last time I ran one from a roll. No doubt I’d be going bigger pulley etc on the cat

No doubt it’s still faster but it’s closer than you think.

A stock hellcat manual runs a 11.9 quarter at the strip. A stock mustang gt manual runs a 12.5. Off the strip where traction isn’t perfect the gap closes based on driver skill and tire.

I put down 460whp/450wtq on the dyno. A hellcat that ran just before me put down 630whp and 610wtq. I weigh about 3750 lbs, a hellcat weighs about 4600lbs. That’s 8lb/hp for my car versus 7.4 for the cat.

I’ll grab a video next time I run one for you. From a dig-100 it’s pretty even. Depends on who gets the better launch. From a roll they’ll pull a door or two on me depending on takeoff speed. They start to pull away above 130 but really how often does anyone see that speed.

Arguably a more badass car though and more power which is why I want one.
