K04 DM stock injector tune vs SRT8 Challenger (392)

I had seen him around once before and couldn't get him to line up to actually race. He just kept flooring it as soon as I'd get to his back bumper then we parted ways.

Ended up next to the same car at a light today. I took off like a normal person and he got up to 20 and paced. So I figured why not. As soon as we were even he took off, I wasn't expecting that exactly so he jumped out about a fender. I crept ever so slowly and we were door to door when I hit the brakes at 120.

I don't think he was ever planning on lifting lol. I tried to give him a thumbs up after and he wouldn't even look at me. Technically you could say he won considering the front end is significantly longer on boats compared to a GTI.

I'll admit I didn't expect to hang with him

Hah, he would have been real sad when you walked away from him. Was it a newer (2011+) 392?

I've crept away from them too, but one I've already beaten now has vinyl on his rear fenders boasting "supercharged"...so I'll have to get beside him again.

Nice! Man the SRT8s look and SOUND so mean. I've only ever been able to "play" with a Jeep SRT8. I was behind and it sounded like he was really getting on it, so I did too, but i kept having to let off to keep from getting to close as there was no where to pass?

k04, s3 injectors, GIAC Tune.

ROH- Let us know what happens when you get next to the supercharged homemade "hellcat"

You should hang with him. They are rated at 470bhp but they weigh well over 4000 lbs and are a mid 12 sec car and a K04 should be somewhere in the 12's as well. You probably freaked him out.

Isn't the Hellcat super and turbo charged? For some reason this stuck in my memory. The vinyl he now has is certainly custom made as I have never seen a "supercharged" vinyl before.

Small turbo upgrades on our cars are brilliant! I beat up on a 2015 mustang gt on the way home from getting my dyno tune. Dude rolled down his window after getting smoked one 10 pulls an asked what I had and I told him turbo and he had an Aha moment.
