Welcome to the forums.
I like those charger's, and the SRT8 is a pretty nasty ride.
Are you also a member of the dodge charger forums?

Nice ride! noone will have anything against you for not having an lsx vehicle, you obviously share the same obsession we all do!

The Challenger will be out in just a few months.

FWIW was at the Dodge dealer yesterday to dyno my car and saw a couple SRT8's in the show room. I'm pretty fanatical about the Bowtie, but I have to say they looked pretty good for 4-door sedan.

Honestly, the 6.1 HEMI is a Beast! It responds to boltons and tuning as well as anything else.
With a CAI and a tune, they make an easy 395-400rwhp, through a 5 speed auto. They have the ability to run in the 12s in damn near stock form as well.
If They could get that 6.1 into a lightweight sportscar, it would be sick.

Welcome. Your SRT8 looks very sharp. When it's time for me to get a four door car, I'm definitely looking for one of these.....best of both worlds (plenty of GO and plenty room for groceries and golf clubs, etc.).

Orangefield, TX is located just east of Orange, TX about 10 miles from border of LA. SRT8 come stock with 425 crank hp and i think 420 tq, they only come in a 5 speed auto with slap shift. Two things bad with my car, 1st low roof- hard to see red light if your first in line, 2nd 3.06 gears- but i did get it up to 178 on hwy 73 in Port Arthur, TX.One last thing sry about the huge sig pic, but my car is huge so I think I'll leave it alone. Thx for all your remarks. Hey, Midnight02 if you live or drive much in Cobb County watch your speed, my older brother is a cop up there and he loves to write tickets.

Nice car - you are really going to need to trim down your sig, though.
