    Barth and HPTuners?

    Just curious, if you care to answer. I'm not 100% on the transgression of things. Tomcat originally hooked up with Tim who was HPT at the time. Then Tim had a tragedy in his life so he kinda' stepped out for awhile. Then you and John hooked up with Josh who was Diablo. But when Tim came back...

    DIRS install

    Hey BTW, has anyone noticed more NVH with the DIRS brace? When I first put my brace on and 'clearanced' the rear main bolt hole, the shank and threaded portion were just making it through the hole. Torqued it all together and took it out for a spin. On sharp, hard, tight left, and right turns...

    DIRS install

    Nicely done! I chose to relieve the hole on the frame/back brace with porting tools and leave the frame unmolested for now.

    BoostedGTA 2021 Super Stock

    A certain amount of gear whine is normal on the RE's (many have reported it )which I understand is basically the same with a few PCM/TCM changes. When I first got my RE I noticed it but now that I think of it, I haven't noticed it lately. Maybe they've broken in or I'm just used to it and tune...

    Sale of the charger - epilogue

    Hope it turns around fast for you Mag. Coming through the keyboard, seams you have the intelligence and experience to keep things under control and make moves to position yourself to stay out of critical danger. (maybe I'll get there some day. LOL). Soooo, what are you driving now?

    Everyone with 315 on the rear what is your psi?

    It looks like you did a lot of research and homework on this but I think your doing two things. One your over thinking this and two your mixing apples and oranges. The Pirelli all seasons SUCK and they're dangerous on these cars (They were actually OE on my car). The P zero's will probably be...

    Everyone with 315 on the rear what is your psi?

    I have the Nitto NTO5 R's and run at 25 cold. They go to 26-27 when driving and have zero issues. Even at 25 cold I don't get 100% tread contact across. Dash lights are on, doesn't bother me for tire PSI.

    Is It Worthwhile to Run a Staggered Set-up on a Daily Driver on the Street?

    Probably is a waste. The raw torque is not going to the front. The 555G2's are an excellent value imho and handle real well on the street. Technically a sticky R would add roll resistance to the front and draw power, but that's just B.S. numbers. In the real world the G2's are excellent, wear...

    Is It Worthwhile to Run a Staggered Set-up on a Daily Driver on the Street?

    I have Nitto 555G2's up front (275/40/20) and Nitto NT05R's out back (315/35/20's) on staggered 9.5's and 10.5's. Handles and drives perfectly. When the NT05's are done I'll put the 555IIR's in the rear. As long as you have radial's to radial's (esp. if same manufacturer) and not mixing winter...

    Stock Fuel Rails, why they don’t keep up

    Whaaa!! @16GoManGoHC2 . I thought I was the first one that had faith, jumped in and said "gimme , gimme, I want one!". I was the first true believer! I defended you! I called you the Hellcat God! (LOL. Mine's on the way)

    Stock Fuel Rails, why they don’t keep up

    RE Challenger's are famous for an overlapped frame and thick weld seam to boot. Earlier Hellcats didn't have that problem. The bolt head flange and washer on the rear main bolt is the only thing holding the two halves of the DIRS brace together when torqued to 90lbs. The bolt shank does nothing...

    Stock Fuel Rails, why they don’t keep up

    Just did the DIRS on mine yesterday, and as @Speedy! said saw the horizontal bolts and what a bit^& it would be to get to. I could see only way to make adjustment (DIRS main rear brace bolt simply would not line up!) was to move the rear or modify the brace. I "clearanced" the main brace hole...

    Finally put my ingocnito sleeve on

    I just got a tune this week on my RE with the largest, most conservative Hellraiser pulley they make (3.17). With the larger 2.7 blower that puts me at I guess @16 l.bs of boost and even at that level they were adamant about ONLY running 93 and said if your gonna track it for a day or get rowdy...

    What did you do to your Hellcat today?

    Man, the RE axle shaft diameter is beefy! Glad I already have a set :p.

    Charger RE fans - enter at your own peril

    I'm seeing these things do 10.6's in the 1/4mi.(That's supposedly the '2021 CS. The earlier ones were like low 11's) How'd the RE lose by half a track on that straight run? I'm also seeing they're closer to 200K. (like $198K not $170K). Am I wrong on any of this?

    Not that anyone care's about camaro's but no surprise

    They just did a comparison on the show 'Everyday Driver' and made all those points about the Tesla. They said that Ford's 1st attempt at an all electric Mustang SUV was already a better quality car than the Tesla simply because they've been a car co. forever and know how to build cars, and Tesla...

    Not that anyone care's about camaro's but no surprise

    I paid 62K for my RE with the power dollars and incentives. They are literally over twice that price at this point. Hell, I don't even like them (at this point). They don't have any styles that suit my taste. But....they do motivate quickly.

    Not that anyone care's about camaro's but no surprise

    Guys talk about range, talk about names, talk about this ,talk about that. These EV's are a performance force and impressive. Cannot be denied.

    When will the cheesy “Brotherhood Of Muscle” phrase go away?

    Wasn't gonna go there but there's a lotta " man muscle" jokes that could apply.:LOL::ROFLMAO:

    Your handle/name meaning and why?

    Walked into work one morning and my manager was laughing his ass off. They had just hired a new guy named Leon Foo. He said "this is the new guy we hired". The paperwork read FooL. Last name first initial. They just started calling him fool.
