    holy cow - 367 RWHP - dyno proven

    methinks Daimler is underrating the SRT8 power output to keep their 40K performance sedan from stepping on their 80K halo car's output..

    Oh yeah. That's what I am talking about. Just makes me want the SRT-8 Charger that much more.

    Listen to that thing scream, wow, just another reason for mr to wait and get one, hmmmm, Charger or Magnum.......... My Mom can't stand the Magnum for some reason :confused: :? , says it's too big. I don't know. I'm trying to work on her, and she knows I like them so that might make her change her mind a bit. She has yet to see the Charger, but my Step Dad has, and likes it. His first car was a '68 Charger 383.

    Means we only need to add about 50 RWHP after headers and exhaust to be pretty darn close.

    chrysler specs 5.7 at 340 hp and 390 torque (at flywheel I guess)
    vrs 425/420 for the 6.1
    = 25% increase in hp from 5.7 to 6.1 and 7.7% increase in torque from 5.7 to 6.1

    now, 6.1 actually measures 357hp/364 at wheels, right?
    what is actual 5.7 at wheels?

    btw, 6.1 system is already optimized air-flow wise so I think it will be REAL hard and iffy to add more than a couple hp with mods. maybe a chiller or something would be best?

    This is pure speculation based on an unconfirmed rumour but a friend told me that they are detuning the 6.1's as they come down the line

    detuning to make them run less powerfully?

    Can you find out HOW they are detuning them so this process can be reversed?
