    I ordered my scat pack directly from the GM of our local dodge, jeep, dealerships. He's my buddys wifes, sisters hubby. Almost $5k under msrp.
    So I know he will give me the vest trade in value and best price on a hellcat.

    Dealers are swamped with them right now because of overstock.

    What i really like about the Hellcat is they still come in a manual and in my opinion have the best interiors

    Yea. I had the option for a zf8spd in the scat pack. I chose the 6m tremec 6060.
    The autos are killin the manuals at the track but its just so much more fun to row gears.

    Update: lowering springs are sold.

    Staying stock for the time being.
    My trade in value vs what I owe is greater than where I need to be for an upgrade to
    a Hellcat.

    I've kicked this shit around for more than a week now. Heavily modify the scat vs upgrading to a Hellcat.
    A d1 or P1 sc will get close to the #'s of the HC for about $10k.

    485 hp seems like alot until youve driven it.
    In comparison to the guys that hunt. 40 acres seems sweet..untill you have walked it a few times.

    I am totally at wits end. wants/needs type thing.

    Not much, but got the tint done.
    25% ceramic. A little darker than I prefer...but if it doesn't grow on me, i'll strip it off and go with 30%.

    I ran a 402hp/399 lb ft torque. It was a conservative "mustang" dyno..(we all know mustang are sloooow) lol.

    94 degs/60% humidity.

    The sae adjusted settings put it right around
    437hp/427 lb ft torque at the rear wheels. (rwhp).

    That seems to put me in that 430-440ish bone stock go figures everyone seems to be landing on.

    Had a good time.....even if it was an Import event.
    Some of them were pulling crazy numbers.

    1st dyno pull.

    Pulled some better numbers on a dyno jet dyno this past weekend. Had a great time. Shop was super nice and very professional.

    My engine builder said those were so e of the most consistent numbers has ever seen. They also have never ran any of the 392's yet and are using my numbers for reference.

    Idk. Says "coyote". Gt350's have gt350 badges as far as I know. Not sure what other difference it has compared to a gt500.

    Ah. At first glance it looked like a GT350 badge, but a closer look and I see that is isn't the same. Same location and basic shape though.
