Let the nut swinging begin!
I'd take a 5.0 over any srt8 any day of the week.

5.0s look great but SRT8 (chargers) just look aggressive as ****. **** performance, dollar for dollar, car is just badass.

You show a pre 2011 gt and an older srt8. I agree with that comparison. The only srt8 I'd pick over the 5.0 gt is the new srt8 300.

Mach 1s in ohio must have all been detuned or something because everyone i have ran into wasnt much, the 3 i ran had mods and i doubt they were in the 12s, the only fast mach1 i ran into had a procharger with a list of other mods but other than that one i have never seen much out of them,im sure there out there but reading this stuff on tech is just past funny and plain just retarded now, my buddy is looking for a mach to buy (i think he has spent to much time on tech, and he is up for a big disssssapointment lol,but i hope they are as good as i hear but havent seen much at the tracks n street yet

Do you guys remember that one video where a GTO with a intake pulled an Eaton swapped Mach1 with full boltons and then people argued about how fast mach1s are for at least 20 pages?

Niterider- you are trying wayy too hard man. lol. Its ok though. They only person that you seem to be convincing is yourself.

On a side note- why did you remove your sig with all your mods you had in it then put in some BS in there? Did someone hit a nerve?

How about an intellingent response based on the car itself and not how much personal hate someone has for it because of the make.

Yea, you're right, might be to much to ask.

Agreed! There were a few that stirred the pot a little too much and made it bad for the others. However, this went both ways.

Thanks but the new SRT8 is still a tad faster then the 5.0 stock vs stock
