Given the Camaro has an obese driver and a passenger and is stock compared to a solo driver cai and tune car im surprised it was that close.

Looks right I guess but I would have guessed uglier. They are almost as quick stock for stock in the first place.

6th gen looks to be a tad quicker on paper.

That being said I like both, thought about buying either one many times, but I still have a like new Fbody that I am having trouble parting with...it still has the new car smell on the inside.

Charger Scat Pack is slower stock no doubt. A tune has been proven to add a couple mph in the quarter and a CAI is 10-15whp. Muffler delete does nothing. Don't count out a 392 8 speed. They are stout. The 5.0's ain't gunna like me when it gets warm out. I plan on doing tune, ported throttle body and port matched intake manifold. Should make my Challenger high 11's on the street all day.

Also, note there is no passenger in the Charger and the driver in the Camaro looks heavy and has a passenger.

Charger and keep the camaro. That 6th gen isn't going to be able to do what that 32xx f body is capable of.

Hopefully we get a few runs in at Indy, I expect to lose haha.

I've been debating on looking around for a used Charger/Challenger ScatPack next year for a nice weather daily so I don't keep driving my truck and filling up all the damn time. I really really like them, they are quick and extremely nice cars all around. I'd look for a 6gen too, but they're gonna be too expensive I feel. Charger Scat Pack should be able to be had for a decent price next summer.

Badass! I think if my 383 ever ***** the bed I am going SB2 and faceplate my T56. LS7 makes me giddy.

I won't have those mods by then. A tune alone is a thousand dollars. It will be close enough to be fun and that's all that matters to me. My buddy with a srt4 raced a header, intake, exh tune bro and put a 1 1/2 on it from 35-125. That same race the same night with the Challenger I put just over a car on that srt4.

Like? I drive 100 miles a day to and from work. I have the truck now because of inclement weather. I want something fun I could drive on nicer days that still gets half-*** decent MPG's on the interstate. What's funny is, I could get a C6z and get better gas mileage than most 4 cylinder cars out there LOL.
