The new Hellcat is killer jc! So much more technically advanced, the built in AFR and boost gauges amongst other performance related gauges available on the dash are a fantastic add. And that lumpiness from the factory, love that Hemi!

I know I have all 4 of the OEM wheels, but they have curb rash; OEM TC; brand new still in box gen III KC w/ drag kit; OEM air box and etc. I will post pics soon.
I know where your old wagon is now. Shoot me a pm for the story.

I doubt somebody would willingly let their wife get rid of their modded car without asking about it. Hasn't really posted since this thread, especially asking if anyone has seen the car. Its been about 20 months since the thread started so why don't you just tell us the story since I have a feeling he really doesn't care.

My friend in SoCal owns it now. The “built 5.7” motor popped the following day it was purchased. Took that built motor apart and had more problems than the size of a Harry Potter book along with other things in the car itself. Long story short new motor is in, majority of things are now fixed. Has ported heads, race iq cams, gen 3 whipple/weistec blower, real long tubes, C63 mufflers, Zeitronix ZT2 Ndash, water meth injection, trunk tank, the list goes on. His screen name here is AMG_Family car.

Here’s a sound clip of it:

Bad ***, sounds killer. If you don't mind me asking what happened to motor to make it "pop"? Did he stick with the 5.7 or get another 5.5? Sounds like an awesome setup with the cams and everything done to it.

I'm definitely confused about a wife that would trade in a husband's car with a built motor and a bunch of work done....

I'm SURE he was utterly clueless of the mountain of problems going on in the motor and had no idea he was days away from a MASSIVE repair after already dumping tens of thousands into modifying it.

Just an enormous coincidence, surely.

anyway, what's it cost to port the heads on an m113k?

really curious how that car handles the quarter mile. My wagon has a rebuilt title so theres nothing stopping me from eventually making it a hilarious sleeper.
