I picked up a Hellcat a month ago. Did 3.09 gears, CAI and cat delete so far. After reading quite a bit I wouldn’t bother with a redeye unless you plan on making 1000+whp. A regular hellcat will do what you want below that with the stock IHI 2.4 blower. 9-950whp

The cars trap 125mph stock. I wouldn’t say it’s breathtaking but pretty damn good for a car as roomy and heavy as a Hellcat. do a pulley/ tune and pick up over 100whp on 93 octane. You can do injectors/pulley/BAP/e85/tune and make 900whp.

below car has a drag pack, 3.09 gear, rear seat delete, TCM tune with stock ecm tune and stock boost. Very impressive if you ask me. 10.28@130. 3.09 gear is what comes in the demon from the factory and is a option for the redeye.


next car is a redeye with a pulley, injectors, e85 and a drag pack. No weight reduction. 9.29@145.

No...Camonly was considering one at first but the numbers didn't make sense after we talked about it. Imo you can buy a ultra low mileage(5k) 2015-2016 for 45-47k right now. Seems like a lot better deal then paying 73+ for a Redeye.

A lot of other cars on the market Id consider for ~$75k. And not one of them is a Dodge. Lol. (Maybe a gen 5 Viper but I havent looked at their prices).

Neither does the Challenger if you're over 4'11". Or if you have legs.

Really???...i thought that tug boat would have more rear seat room.

A damn 4gen has loads of rear seat room by today's rear seat standards. It's ridiculous for how large and heavy cars has become all while becoming less useful.

I'm 5’8” and 190lbs, plenty of room for me in the back of my 2018 challenger. I’m guessing height matters a lot.

Part of it is I also feel like im getting old. Having a comfortable reliable daily and a toy weekend car is the only way to fly.

Trust me I get it... I like my Z28 but damn it’s not as comfortable as my Challenger for day to day driving. It’s really pushing me towards upgrading the Challenger and not wasting any money on the Z28.
