Guys, would you get a GT with pp option and then add a full Hellion TT kit on it, or get a GT350 and keep it stock?

GT + TT:

Great torque and more power
Loose warranty
Don't have the Hi Rev
Risking blowing the engine

GT350
Keep the Warranty
High revving
Engine is tuned from factory
Lower torque and HP

Your feedback is welcomed! :thumbsup:

What is your purpose for the car? A track day car? To me your options are two entirely different vehicles. With different purposes. The GT pp with twins is a straight line racer type of car and the gt350 is a track day car. Because twin turbo track day car isn't practical without alot of allowances for cooling and a GT350 isn't a street racer

Your point is well taken. My problem is that I want both, and I can't convince myself to either way.
I love the TQ of turbo which I've had and I love the hi rev track that I had from my M3.

The new Z06 has them both but it's S/C which I had on my last Z06, and no more S/C for me. For F/I, TT is the way to go.
My only concern with 350 is, if the suspension is too stiff for daily driving. I could not drive my Z06 more than a few hours. It was too stiff.

350 if you can swing it and can wait
When GT500 came out, a local dealer had jacked up the price with an additional $40,000 "Market Adjustment" fee. I'm going to bet, we're going to see that with GT350 in the first year. This is the part that I hate dealing with dealers.

Also GT350 will depreciate a hell of a lot less.

There's no reason to pay above MSRP. I can already order a Hellcat for 2k under MSRP. Just go to a dealer that's a little further away if you have to.

GT350 no question. Resale will be much better, no turbo lag, and a lighter weight car.

Good points on resale value.

And yes, Hellcat is also on my list of choices. I love the manual shift and the look of Charger, but can't get a manual Charger, not at least on this platform. The floor doesn't allow the manual tranny.
