And driveline upgrade...just trade it on a Scat Pack.Procharger...but then..wheels and tires, brakes, strut tower braces, lowering, etc et.
Not everyone wants a 392. A 345 has better build options.And driveline upgrade...just trade it on a Scat Pack.
But if your goal is 450 HP then the Scat already exceeds that, no build necessary.Not everyone wants a 392. A 345 has better build options.
As I said in my thread about my build, I was not driven by cost. If cost is your focus, I agree with you. I have a T/A with a 345 for a reason (history explains) and I love my car. It's beautiful and even on our new calendar. What I have is now unique and faster than a 392. It's a beast and I will smile every day I drive it. Especially when I surprise that hot shot Scat guy next to me. Me with my 345 stickers on the side LOL. BTW, I ended up with 523 HP (estimated from rear wheel HP).But if your goal is 450 HP then the Scat already exceeds that, no build necessary.
He wants 450 HP at the wheels. I think the Scat is a little short of that. Especially the A8 (parasitic loss). 485 HP at the crank.But if your goal is 450 HP then the Scat already exceeds that, no build necessary.
Sorry I should’ve stated the rest of my car plans but yes I do know I won’t reach my goal with just a pcm and tuner alone. And I really appreciate the advice I keep it in mind for my car.You are not going to get 450 hp from an unlocked PCM and tuner. I Recently added headers, unlocked PCM, and a dyno. Today I’m picking up my car with an MDS delete/stage two cam and another dyno. That’s what it’ll take to get you there.
Doesn’t the 5.7 handle boost better though?And driveline upgrade...just trade it on a Scat Pack.
Read my new thread here My 2017 345 T/A Challenger build results.Sorry I should’ve stated the rest of my car plans but yes I do know I won’t reach my goal with just a pcm and tuner alone. And I really appreciate the advice I keep it in mind for my car.
Yes it does handle boost better and is why Mopar used it in the Drag Pack Challengers.Doesn’t the 5.7 handle boost better though?
