I am not sure I love the stripes (decals?), but nice looking TBSS. The rebuilt motor begs the question why ... was it run that hard?

stripes i dont like either will be removing them sometime soon but they might also grow on me too, and the guy i bought it from said it had something in bottom end sounding and had it taken to the dealership and found out it was still under warrenty and they put all new parts in the motor (reciept on everything) reason why i didnt have a problem with it, other than that i didnt find anything else wrong with it drives perfect.

Our country asses LOL Hownken' Bahahahah


Vid car was a bone stock 2012 Challenger RT with 9K miles. I was driving the Challenger.
RT spun a tad bit more than usual on this run, not enough to matter too much... I as driving owner was shotgun with vid (200#), OP and I weigh the same. RT was on dead empty gas. I believe TBSS let off around 85 or so..... Past 1/8 mark. I would say 1.5 lengths at best with the RT getting a "perfect" launch.

I probably would have beat the RT... However the driver of the RT also had his shirt off so it was a bit hard to concentrate... Thats why I was kinda mugging in the vid

Congrats on the purchase. I still regret selling mine. A good tune and exhaust work will really wake it up.

Nice TBSS there a blast to drive I have a 06 red jewel I have upgraded a couple things like electric fans cold air intake, battery cable upgrade, borla exhaust, Pcm for less tune. With the tune it realy woke it up. Rolls out pretty good for a suv. Is your 2wd or awd?
