So you like Ford = Fixed or repaired daily?
First on race day.

That's a typical comment from someone who likes other makes. Not original.

:lol:

Here's a review...

http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/2015-dodge-challenger-srt-hellcat-test-review


The GT500 slightly beat it to 60 and lost just slightly in the 1/4 mile during C&D's comparison. The Hellcat's 707 horsepower really becomes more of an advantage if you are running at higher speeds (beyond what is street legal). At street legal speeds it isn't that much faster than other cars in the 400+ hp range, even in a straight line.
Great article. Thanks. Your comment on the high end power kinda takes us back to the very first post in this thread...

GT350 plus boost. Lethal just made 819rwhp on E85 with their whipple at 11.5 psi. I'd say this is about the same price as a loaded Hellcat. Now that is even better than a GT plus boost :)

Not to say you can't start modding the Hellcat though either, but if we are going performance to dollar, all around.

The 350 only makes about 30whp more then a GT on same boost/fuel, however I bet the 350's drivetrain handles the power better then a 15/16 mt82 car.

That's a false statement

I forgot that you know errythang....except what the tuner of both cars/setups told me.
<--- tuned my setup as well.
Yeah funny you're the second person to tell me that on the forums today. Unless your trolling. The 5.2 vs 5.0 on a otherwise stock engine with the same boost (11.5-11.62psi) is about a 120hp increase on a voodoo not 30 hp. Get your facts straight. I also mentioned before all this even happened that the boost + high compression would work and add big hp gains when some of you said it couldn't happen. It's fuel and timing calibrations. Your claim in saying it's only a 30hp increase with the same boost is false. I am right. You my friend are wrong. The voodoo made 819hp. They just proved it with dyno numbers and you want to argue my statement! Please dude.

How are you going to argue the fact that the GT 5.0 made 700 hp and the gt350 made 819 ???? Wtf it's on the dyno. Jesus
