Dodge's are just so hard to work with though. Very little after market support and the tuning is a major PITA. For 2011 and up they've encrypted the PCM so no tuning AT ALL on those. Dodge are a bunch of idiots and really pissed off the enthusiast community.
Nice Times... That will get your blood going.. And you look like you have the smarts and the shop too. SWEET.. And the MPG


My first step was to do the brakes and the suspension, ect...You know, do the right steps first and then go back to the engine ...The car is now set up for massive HP with the subframe connectors, ect...

So now with a full Hotchkis set up and massive Willwoods, ect.., I am looking to S/C my LT-1 .. It has the flattops and bulletproof parts, so I may try the 125HP charger..I need more HP to run with the new cars..

And I want to leave the factory Corvette engine since I have all new exhaust and MSD parts..

If not a S/C, then higher compression and a bigger cam...Running a comp cam 280H now, but it only runs low to mid 13's..@ 108. I now know the car will handle much more HP.. It will never get good gas mileage unless I go with an LS.

I have dreams of a new style ZR-1 or ZL-1 engine, but that would take a wad that I should not spend..It would not be financially smart...

But I spent my camaro wad of money for now... The wife had a paid off 350Z, but since I went crazy on my car, I had to put 20K down on the 370Z to make the payments low... Happy Wife, Happy Life..

So went the Interior money and my HP boost...

What heads are you running? I have the CC Magnum 280. Combined with the AFR 195 Eliminators the car is now a rocket. Highly recommend the AFR's. The best that's out there for a reasonable price.

Could not keep clutches in it. It was loud and fast. 4" side pipes save lives.

Hey there.. I am running the LT-1 2.02 Heads. They are the Stock big valve heads with some machine work.

They come from the factory with guide plates and screw in studs, ect...

It comes on about 3000 to 3500RPM and pulls hard to redline 6500rpm..

You can really feel it..I also went with the 1.52 Roller rockers...

Engine has 20K Miles on it, so I may need to freshen it in the next few years...
