@@lovethesmellofracefuelinth7374 that’s why the v6 owners just make all of us face palm when they dropped 30k on a car that’s as fast as a 7k dollar g35
Yep. Just bought my Challenger RT a couple months ago and the amount of love fellow Challenger/Charger owners show each other is so great! We give thumbs up to oncoming dodge cars constantly where i live.
If people took pride in their cars like they did up until 1990s men would only drive chargers and challengers with a few other exceptions like Camaro, Durango, Tahoe, or jeep
@@mryoung0412 Sounds awesome brother my dad has a 2019 Dodge Charger RT Scat Pack with the 392 Hemi V8 with 485 HP and 475 Ibs of torque and man let me tell you it's a beast.
Having moved from the 5.7 to the 392 I knew there was a huge difference as it can easily be felt, but this shed some really good light on the actual gap in the two motors.
Just ran across these 60-130 vids. Love em! Love the difference between the cars. With the slower cars you are driving with one hand. In the Hellcat you are hanging on for your life!
Just got my car back from the performance shop. 5.7 stroked to 392 with a MMX boost cam and longtubes. I’m currently running it NA (because the stroke and cam ate my wallet lol) but even so, the power difference is insane. The power it puts down to the wheels on a mustang dyno is a little higher than a scatpack. Super hyped!! Just wanted to share lol and also great video!!
seahawkz3 I’m running the stock exhaust with the longtubes and catless mids, and also have muffler and resonators deleted, so you can basically hear me a mile away lol. I’m currently running 22s on it and have pretty decent grip because they are brand new, but am going to go to 20s so I can go wider and lower it. The size I am going to go to will be 295/35/20 in the rear. Not sure yet about front but it will be staggered
Man, I cannot get enough of your content. I’ve seen everything over the past I wanna say 2 years and the progression has been quite enjoyable. I don’t think I ever told you that in 2017 I got my first Dodge Challenger(v6) traded it in for an RT the very next year and now due to your “research and testing” I’m leaving very hard toward a scat pack Widebody as I am not a drag racer. Keep it coming man, I’m prob one of your most silent dedicated followers lol. I will say I’d love to see you review a Hellcat Redeye Widebody in terms of how it drives (stock) vs Xcessive but I do understand that dealers are a bit stingy with allowing test drives on those expensive cars and I don’t think any of your buddies have one. Plus the diff between a stock Hellcat and a stock Redeye is about a tenth of a second in the quarter mile I believe. But just thought it might be interesting to see the difference between a modded cat and a stock or even modded Redeye.
I really appreciate your support my friend. I actually have that video on my to do list lol. Yes it will make for an interesting comparison. Take care brother
The 5.7 really chokes top end cause of the cam & heads. Stock for stock theres a substantial difference in that and the 392. The 5.7 can make some insane power, but you have to enjoy modding your vehicles. If you don’t, the 392 is play out the box 💪🏻
I think the Scat Packs are a large step up from the R/T. The top end of the Scat vs the R/T is clearly shown in this video. I'm curious to what a stock Hellcat would run 0-60, 8-10 seconds?
California Gunner 0-60 in any rear drive car that’s putting down over 600hp like a Stock Hellcat is just a headache. The better test number is the 0-100mph.
@@Nicktheguy24 If he thought that, then he wouldn't have bought a hellcat lol. And I only say that because you could have used the money towards something else also fun.
What gets me people say the challenger R/T is slow. It might not be the fastest. But that damn thing is very quick. Just think if it was 600lbs lighter.... my son owns a 2016 challenger R/T and it’s a Rocket ship i love it. I need to steal it again lol
@@robbiefrentz9427 I think that comes from it being a 5.7 v8 that gets smoked by a 5.0 V8. I honestly thought a 5.7 would be a obvious winner in higher HP, but nope.
Superior Video Racer! I loved every second of this very informative content! All your videos are extremely informative, interesting and very professional. Thank You, Sir.
Hey man just wanted to say I’ve actually been watching your videos for a while now maybe almost a year and you actually raced my cousin Mark in the corvette! Anyways I actually just bought my first challenger RT and I’m loving it! Keep up the good content! 👍🏻🔥🔥
I have a 5.7L challenger T/A. For me personally it started to really slow down after 135, I was still pulling but like you said it takes it's time idk why. Now, if I remember correctly most R/T is limited to 135 top speed, mine has the high engine controller so my top speed is 150mph soo maybe thats why
@@mttmike i have a stock rt plus and the top speed I hit was 170 takes a sec to get there but to 140 it's quick I can keep up with 392 in top speed just not in acceleration
RacerX- great content, thank you. Ive modded a 3.7 mustang. I also kept stock mufflers (im 55. Longtime hodder. This car is solely to rattle the kids. Lol). It runs 12.7 at 107 with only a few bolt ons and 4.10 gear with auto trans. My sweet spot is 1/8 mile or stoplight stuff. It beats 11sec cars in 8th. Yes the power past me very fast in full quarter. You have proved point on the street its all about traction. Be safe. And thanks again.
I love the edits between the film and his face 😂 I own a scat pack and have never driven or even ridden along in a hellcat and I’ve just been dying to feel the hellcat throw me back in my seat 😭
My first dodge car was a 2017 charger rt. I've had ram trucks before. So the rt was crazy fast to me compared to all my previous vehicles. But I should have waited lol. There weren't any scat packs at the dealer the week I got my rt. 2 weeks later there were 4 of them. Would have been a $35 difference in my monthly payment lol.
This idiot in a infinity Q50t who pulls up beside me 4AM in the morning looks at me reving his engine. I'm like why man' I'm just trying to get home. He was really pissing me off and wouldn't let up I really wanted to get home. I drive a 2014 R/T RWD 5 Speed. ( Header Orange) I just added a K&N air intake manifold with some new long tube headers and a tune. That new Q50t is pushing over 400 🐎. I smoked his ass. Don't sleep on the R/T.
my 2014 Charger R/T Max w a 2015 motor and a JLT intake dynotune and mopar exhaust does 60-130 in 14.3. but i am in florida it is hot as hell over here as well. not sure if its as hot as texas doe.
Another great post! Thanks for always posting objective videos and respecting every trim level for what they are. Your car is impressive... currently building my mopar 19 scat. Will be going in for a cam swap, along with the million other things you have to change on it...lol. Lifters, rods, mds delete..... but hope to by next year be pro charged and running some good numbers.
a 392 will never blow a RT away like a hellcat blows scats away. im a young buck with a RT and these cars get in the wind but i dnt understand why 392 owners hate on the RT🤔
Nice video with a different test than the normal. Probably no need to give the specs of these cars, they aren't new and viewers here know what they are. I'm really enjoying my 2019 Challenger Scatpack.
In case anyone was wondering B Mason made the same 60-130 run in what is essentially a stock Hellcat. The only thing that is different in his car is a transmission tune. His time was in the low 8s. When reading a time slip at the dragstrip, the 60 foot time is a measure of torque and mph on the big end is a function of horsepower. What you saw in this video is what the difference in horsepower does to performance.
Out of all the recent modern cars I have seen, the best bang for the buck as far as easy to modify, and beating more expensive cars is the 07 Shelby Gt 500!
I was able to get a 18.4 and a 17.6 on my challenger rt, with just a muffler delete. I ordered a tazer so I definitely want to do a couple runs after I get it to see if track mode improves my times.
PILULE 1995 I finally got another chance to test it out and was able to get a 17.2 and a 16.7 for my runs on track mode. It was a bit cooler out for my second runs but I also just filled up my tank, as opposed to me having under half a tank the first go. So track mode definitely seemed to help on the higher end.
Your videos are great. I own Audi S5 which is extremely fast and sneaks up on people. After watching your video comparison going to buy The Challenger Scat Pack. Thanks for all your comparison videos.
That's a good looking RT........before I got my charger hellcat I had a Challenger scat pack shaker 2018 like Mrs. X's....had the stripe decal package but houndstooth cloth.....bought brand new....loved it....but hated the seats....got shocked touching door everytime I got out....and the dust inside from seats sucked......but it was fun....it was hard to find a destroyer gray shaker in my area.....same as my destroyer gray hellcat.....had to do a nation wide search for it.....keep up the great work !!! Can't wait for the Vette you're getting!!!!!!
Great content RacerX...still trying to find a closed circuit here in NC where I can legally open up my 2020 Scat, but this gives me a good marker...keep up the great content!
Racing to 130mph can really show a cars performance! Nice video! I have raced a lambo and he didnt leave me to far behind at 130mph in my Acura TL 2011
On a recent live video you did, you said you were not sure about the 6 speed shifting on my manual RT Shaker Plus in finding the best shifting RPMs. You said 3800 RPMs, and you were right bro.... That is the sweet spot for my 5.7 Hemi... Thanks!
Would like to see you run the hellcat in better air. I did my first draggy 60-130 a few days ago and ran a 5.9. 2011 Mustang 5.0 , T56, VMP blower making about 850. 1600 DA. Next time I will shift a little bit sooner. I need to make some adjustments.
Good video.....do another test with your buddy’s cammed 392 charger and then a stock hellcat....would be cool to see all of that data together.....damn, your face when running your charger.....1000hp is no joke
12.65 seconds for my 2016 mustang gt with Roush catback and on the E85R tune, using the Dragy...i did my run with the 1/4 mile run in mind and took it to 130...0-130 is 17 seconds, 12.65 for the 60-130 on the same run
I think this gives a better idea of how fast a car is in the daily world of driving. Those 0-60 numbers show what a car can do from a stop in ideal launch conditions, but more often your cruising when you need power to pass someone. I was a little disappointed with the R/T times, I thought they were closer on par with the Scat Pack. (R/T is still a good car IMO)
Man that hellcat is fast! Can’t wait till the Charger Redeye and the challenger superstock are out. Maybe you can put some content comparing those to your hellcat sometime in the future.
RacerX my wife Beth Benitone are both subscribers and just love your channel so much. We have had our 2019 Challenger TA 392 for a year. Like your wife, it is her's, I just get to drive it when we are together so I will feel like "The Man". We have 15,000 miles on the car, and will need to replace our Pirelli p zero Nero all season tires before our Southern Illinois Winter comes (Pretty Light, we will put her away if it requires plowing). TO be honest my wife is very hard on them :) You talk a lot about changing out the tires between your wife's scat and your hellcat for racing. Can you consider doing a show on BEST Tires especially in our cases for everyday driving like you guys do for your scat. Right now I am trying to decide between new Pirelli p zero nero all season replacements, but honestly I like the ride, but did not feel the wore very well, but I have never had tires with nearly 500hp on them... They also have a p zero nero all season PLUS, or maybe the Nitto Motivo these are where I was looking, then I had a few others suggested to me such as the Michelin Pilot Sport 4s, Az800 or Az850, Nitto NT555 G2, One has recomended Ironman Imove Gen 2 A/S. It would be great to hear you talk about this. We run 275/40zr20, I also see a lot of people recommending us to move up to 295's (Saying I can go up to a 295 on the current rims) or even go to Hellcat Rims 10.5 and run 305/35/20. Some suggest all the way around and others recommend stay with 275 on front and go 305 on back. Again would love to hear about this in an upcoming LIVE STREAM or VIDEO. Blessings and Thanks for the Channel-- great stuff.
That's a great info. video, as you know Steve from nj 2019 Shaker Scat.....what a difference between your 6.2 and 6.4.....I do not have a good safe place to air out our scat.....be safe....thanks Steve
I like the video! Been looking for more draggy content. Im not happy with my 6.1/6.2 60-130 in my redeye. Hopefully breaking into the mid 5’s with my new setup 🙏
RacerX yeah full bolt on, upper/ lower, e85, ported blower. Full rear bmr suspension and a few more other supporting mods for now. Hopefully going internal mods next year.
Thx for the great videos! Curious why that brand new 5.7 Daytona puts out 25 less hp than the 5.7 in my 2010 ram,you'd think power would creep up over the years,not down
