I don't care what other people's reason for not wanting to buy this car. I'm getting it because I absolutely love the car, how it looks, sounds, feels.. I'm not getting it to race I'm getting it purely for fun driving and the love of muscle cars and v8s
@@aungkyawzhor5700 I have a 2015 Scat shaker. Heavy modified . Cam swap, Pro charger Super charger, Kooks long tube headers and Cats, makes 646 at the rear wheels. The mods where finished in 2016. This car is an ever day driver. I can run low 11's at 124 miles an hr. doing the 1/4. Oh by the way it is a six speed manual car. There are other mods like axles G force and alum drive shaft barton shifter and Hays clutch assembly. And I live 25 mins from where I work. I get her to 80 miles an hr and set the cruse and average 24 to 25 miles a gallon. No issues with internals. Now the boost is set a 7lbs to get the 646 hp. and I'm good with it. Love it to death.
Bought the 21 frostbite wb charger scat for same reasons.sounds great in track mode.bad reputation and glorified in rap, highly stolen and seasonal are the only downsides besides $$$
Nothing will ever discourage me from buying a Challenger. Planning to buy the Scat-P widebody and leaving it stock, it has enough power and sounds good, no need for mods.
Oh...and a friend bought some of that F11 stuff and said it was nothing special. And certainly not worth the money he paid for it. By "friend" I mean ME!!!lol! Run away...
TakeDeadAim cool I was curious about that stuff but I'm still young & don't mind still scrubbing even though halfway thru I b like fuck where is a J 2 pay when u need 1😄😤
i Have 50k miles on my charger 392 and its been great no problems. i take good care of it ive gone 174 mph . These cars are pretty Heavy Duty just dont abuse it and take care of whatever car u have .
I know right? It takes control. I was minding myself today on the highway while others were passing me. Two police speed traps up ahead. I think they were surprised I was not in the fast pack of drivers. ( I was surprised as well) ;-)
I'm buying a challenger in a year are two because now my Insurance is low enough its not more then a car payment lol. In scared I'll get tickets again once I get the challenger I'm torn between a 5.7 and 6.4.
I’ve had many fast Mustangs that can beat most 392’s, but none of them have the bad ass old style looks that the Challenger has. Kudos to Dodge. They killed it in the looks department.
I recently bought a 22 challenger RT and happy with the power, crazy how some people with the 392 want more power, I test drove that one before buying my RT and spun the whole time, crazy power already in that 6.4.
Never thought I'd see the day where 485 hp on a production car wasn't enough hp. At this rate 10 years from now 4 cylinder cars will be rated at 485 hp from the factory and people will be adding mods to increase hp on 1000 hp cars. Unless you're a professional drag racer at a certain point enough is enough. I own a Dodge Durango with the 5.7 and its the fastest vehicle I've ever owned in my life. I find myself having to remind myself to slow down in order to increase my gas mileage.
The A 45 AMG is already rated at 415 HP and it's a 2L i-4 lol I think peoople have trouble really figuring out what they really want in a car. Some folks don't get that if your plan is to smoke anything that's on four wheels as soon as you step on the gas, then a 4500 lbs muscle car isn't the way to go. You have small 3000lb, 2L missiles, that put out over 300 hp stock and can be modded up to almost 400, (some of those being all wheel drive btw) and they'll eat big heavy muscle cars alive. However, as someone who is fully satisfied with the scary mean looks, the charisma, the head turning sound and the sufficient power to spin the rear wheels, my 2009 5.7 is all I could ask for. I couldn't care less about all the BMWs that look the same and the souped up GOLF GTIs that always want to start something lol they're not the ones always getting hit with "wow it's a challenger !!" ;)
The only problem with boosting a 392 is the rings on the piston are placed to high on the piston causing them to be weak and actually brake the piston tops off when boosted. All new rods and pistons are just over $2k for drop ins and will make it boostable.
Hey nice car man. However I've been certified Chrysler for over 15 years and I can tell you the 5.7 has no forged internals. However the 6.4 (392ci) has forged internals. I've got a 2017 challenger srt8 (SRT- STREET and RACING TECHNOLOGY) mine is obviously an N/A car and I put an entire Demon set up on it from top to bottom from supercharger to pulleys with a bigger cam and aftermarket heads I did not touch anything else and I'm putting down over 800hp to the tires on stock internals. With a little more aggressive stahl converter and a moroso posi rear and 3:55 gears. I've had the car for 2 years and bought it with 5,500 miles on it I did everything under 6k miles and car is currently my daily driver and race car (so to speak) it now has over 68k miles and never once had a single issue EVER!!! If any 392 blows up under boost then it's a mechanical error not the engine! I'm more than willing to send dated receipts for the parts/work with mileage intervals to prove what I'm saying alongside a few Dino sheets. I did the job in my own garage and took to be tuned and set up properly. Less than 10k dollars for everything if you shop right and turn your own wrenches. BTW no disrespect to you and your channel but people some things should be better thought out especially when it's about vehicles like this ...... And I'm seriously digging. Your color and rim set up its a slick ride man. Anyway let me know if you want to see anything I have in regards to my car and it's set up. Thanks.
6.4 has only a forged a crank. I agree with the OP. I’m currently going a similar route. I opted for the edelbrock 2650 TVS super charger. From what I see, the biggest problem with running boost to the 6.4 is tuning. It appears that with the higher ring position and hyperutectic (sp?) pistons and higher compression, tuning these cars is after important. It seems from my investigating that lean conditions are the culprit most of the time. So fuel pressure and A/f is super important. The tuner I choose talked me out of going forged for my Srt Jeep because I do not want to run more than 8lbs Of boost, this is a daily driver that I hope to achieve 525-550 rwhp. I do not plan consistent track days, just want to give my Srt a little more clout. 2015 it was the fastest SUV, however times have changed. I had 20k ready to go, so the fact that the tuner talked me out of it, shows me that he has confidence it what the engine can and can’t do. We will see, she gets tuned Monday.
Been a car guy my whole life. Ever since my Honda days, I could never ever understand why anyone would boost a factory NA motor, especially one as special as the 392. With some bolt ons and a tune you are easily going to be faster than 95% of the cars on the road.
My Charger turns 11.86 (Tires and -seats) with no Tune etc. I have yet to be beaten a Hellcat that is 100%. I hope to get into the 11.7's by years end.
392s were designed for low end grunt, which needs higher compression. If you swap out the pistons to something more boost friendly these can handle a decent amount of boost just fine.
Just bought my (really my wifes) 392 3 weeks ago and love every time we start it up. Started doing mods like Window Tint, and per your suggestion vinyl on the reflectors. Next we are looking at de-badging, and oil / air separator here soon. Keep up the videos and look forward to see what is coming next.
I happy with my 392. I couldn’t afford a $48,000 Hellcat. The 392 can go long way NA with Long tube headers, cam, tune, weight reduction. You got a 10sec car right there.
He's totally right. I was going to get a 392 and eventually put a supercharger on it, but looking at the money, hassle and warranty issues it just made more sense to buy a used hellcat. I don't regret it for 1 second.
The car can handle boost. I think you're wrong on that. The car just doesn't handle spark knock at all. very unforgiving. That being said, you have to trust your tuner,. Either way, better to forge it and be safe if you want to boost it.
You clearly didnt watch the whole vid yes it can be built to handle boost but in order for you to forge it its gonna be expensive as fuck already. you might as well buy a hellcat and tune it if you want even more power.
† still cheaper than buying a Hellcat or a Trackhawk. I bought my 2015JeepSRT with 40k miles for 30k. I can have the the motor forged and a supercharger installed for around 20K
@@InnoV8Official Unless they are running 1320's you won't have it floored for more than 9 or 10 seconds. The engine's rev limiter cuts in at 6200, the auto slam shifts about 5800. It's actually quite difficult to abuse it on the hwy. But I will do a leak down compression test and plug read on the one I actually buy!
When I bought my first new car over a year ago I didn't even think to check the local Dodge dealership for a 392 or Scatpack Challenger that was used for a decent price. Long story short, I ended up with a Sentra Nismo, and I had this little voice in the back of my head telling me to go check with Dodge to see what they had. There was a used, plum crazy, 392 Scat Pack with the flared fenders and such for about $30 000 CDN (just $2000 more than I paid for my Sentra) and the monthly payments would have only been about $30/month more. I have never kicked myself so hard in my life. I've got my heart set on V8 muscle and to find that I flubbed my shot at owning a Challenger at such a young age is definitely a lesson I won't soon forget. I'm hoping in the next 4 years I can finally get the Challenger I've always wanted, but man it sure is painful seeing so many at my local car meet and just wishing I had done more research before taking the plunge on a lackluster Nissan!
Awww, if FUN is you mission keep your Nissan! ;)) Actually, all of us driving hi powered handsome Mopars have a deep fear of 4 cyl Nissan's. We fear that excessive points may force us into one, someday. Hey, 4 years from now, there will be another quarter million used Chally's out there, including the last of the BB V-8's. Yup, the new '21 'Cuda will have an optional turbo V-6 only. Four cyl standard, just like the 2019 Silverado. So don't wait too long, 2020 may be the end of the HellCat and the HEMI. I've got a feeling they'll quickly disappear into a Mopar Man's garage. MM's don't often sell their beloved rides, either. :((
Destroyer Grey Productions, I have a 2018 scatpack shaker, I have a serious question I really want answered. If I replace the spoiler badge to an SRT with a bee badge is that considered upbadging or no because it’s SRT with a bee? Feedback would be greatly appreciated, I’ve been watching your videos for a long time now I love your vids. I hope to get my car like yours one day. Thank you very much
I would consider that upbadging as it still is a Scat Pack. 2015+ SRTs always have six piston brembos up front so if someone knows enough they might scream at you because, iT'S nOt aN sRt.
So we got a wide body 2021 Challenger 392 Scott Peck shaker hood addition coming. What thing should we do to make it bulletproof by leaving a stock. Just trying to have a nice daily driver. What kind of things that we do to avoid issues and problems bay not modifying this Challenger?
You don't need FI on that engine . Just do a cam, full exhaust and a tune and You’re at about 600 with not even a need for a stall. There’s always gonna be someone faster, just enjoy what you have with that engine hitting a lick on that cam
ProCharged my rebuild forged 392 and couldn't be happier! My D-1SC boosted my power quite a bit getting 653whp with 601 torque. My cam was destroyed by a ceased MDS lifter at 90K so I decided to ProCharge her...
I have the 5.7 RT. For me it's perfect. I love the sound with Flowmasters. It cheaper to maintain and is fast enough. But the 392 is excellent if you can afford it. The Hellcat Redeye wide body is my dream car. ......There's no "Wrong " car. I would buy the V6 if it's what I could afford. Enjoy what you have. Enjoy life and be happy. ......But this video has great information. Thanks brother. God bless you.....Oh, your Challenger is bad ass.
Sorry but some of your point's are wrong. Stock scats with a tire have done 11.5. That's faster then a stock 10spd. Also I've seen plenty handle 650whp just fine.
Love my Stock 392 Challenger, it's the perfect High-Performance Luxury Old Guys ride, sure she's Heavy, so am I. With the 18 speaker Harmon Hardon stereo, she rocks. The sunroof is a must, adaptive cruise control is also a must have with all the traffic nowadays. With the 8 speed auto, you get MDS (Multiple Displacement System) 4 cylinders cut out and you just coast along getting 30-45MPG when just flowing in bumper to bumper traffic. She loves to run at 85 plus, loafing along at 2k RPM getting about 18MPG. No need for any high-performance mods, cause she's direct-injection stick on an Oil Catch Can.
The 392 6.4L isn't direct Injection, it's multi port injection, and secondly, you don't need a catch can on these 392s because the fuel injectors spray the intake valves thus diluting any oil vapors that get recirculated back into the intake manifold from the positive crankcase ventilation.
@@cf5899 The 392 motor is awesome! I'm Not a mechanic by trade, but I do my own maintenance. I have had a catch can on my since she was new. I drain the catch can maybe around every 2 to 3,000 miles, and every time their has always been a few ounces of oil in it.
@@jamesdumas6602 I agree, I have a 2021 392 widebody and absolutely enjoy it especially with the borla atak cat back I installed and the z automotive exhaust bypass plug
6.1 is the hellcat motor size, so unless it had the supercharger it was more than likely a 5.7 or a 392/6.4 that is the thrust of his whole argument, the 6.1 was purpose built specifically for the boost and is the same platform used for all of the supercharged versions. the 392 is not set up for a variety of reasons to have forced induction applied to it w/o serious modification
Am Interested in getting a 2013-2014 SRT8 and Adding bolt ons, cam, and 150 shot of nos if the pistons is the only major weak point, i can buy some forged pistons for maybe 3k? N drop em in myself. It should be safe to bring this build to life right?
when is too much power not enough? do y'all take these gas guzzlers to the track? i got R/T. so i dont have a dogg in the fite..i will add cold air intake and shorty headers' tuner.. and enjoy my 17 mpg gas guzzler ..love that color Mayne
Interesting, I've heard some people argue that for a daily driver the Scat Pack is the way to go instead of a Hellcat since the power is more usable. I have a 2015 Scat Pack Shaker and I love it. Mine is a 6 speed which a lot of people can't believe since so many people have gotten the auto. I never bought it to be a race car, in fact I bought it to keep stock and it's approaching 40k miles. That said, I want to do a cam, long tube headers, and a Dyno tune next year and crank it up to maybe 550 hp or so naturally aspirated (at the crank). Do you know how these do with cams? It wouldn't be anything crazy since I want to keep it a street car. I know these motors don't do well with boost unless you really build them. So thoughts??
I have the 2017 yellow jacket 392. The color definitely brings a lot of compliments. Only downside is bugs are constantly attracted to the color as well
@@devinpenson4027 That why they make Meguiar's! ;)) FYI the 1970 'Cuda AAR 340-6 came in that color too (though other colors were available). With the black stripes and hood, it is one of Mopar's most desirable rides. They go for 100K+ on Mecam. It's a stunning color on any Mopar with any of the many graphics package available from them.
Hey brother, I been with you since you have pretty much started. It seems like you don't really like your car or some other cars have out run you. That's the name of the game , everyone wants to go faster once you get used to your car. Ford has the famous ticking problem as well as the other brands with problem's. It's the need for speed, everyone wants more. People Mod everything, not sure where you are going with this message at all ???
I don't like my car? That's the opposite of how I feel. Just trying to warn people of all the things as well as cost you will go through to boost your 392 safely.
I know Exactly what you mean, my Challenger SRT8 is 2012 I just hit 50,000 on it. I've tuned it put long tube headers on it with cold intake no problems what so ever. I put all that stuff on when it had 31,000 mes on it.
Dont buy the 392 cause you cant add power. Well yeah, the engine is pretty much maxed out by Dodge and SRT from the factory. Youre not going to beat every car out there. Racing isnt everything, being the fastest isnt everything. If it was youd just buy a hellcat, or a miata and put a v8 in it or a Porche. Dumbest argument as to why you shouldnt buy a 392 ever. I get that you know this but then again it seems that anyone with a 392 does. The title makes it seems as though youre shitting on it even though you clearly like your scat.
Got mine 2 years ago new, run it pedal to the medal every time it’s driven and I’ve had zero issues . It’s a head turner , and nothing sounds better than the 392 hemi. The 392 and 6.2 supercharged hemi are the pinnacle of modern combustion motor engineering imo, it’s all electric from here. So get one of the two before it’s too late. And to the 5.7 owner who said it’s as fast as the 6.4, that’s a BIG negative sir. The 5.7 is barely faster than a stock crown Victoria
Being old, I'm on my second Challenger! Running a black Scat now, man the car is comfortable you can get in and out without dragging yourself over lower door jam.. 485 hp is about all u can put down on the street without spinning so bad it becomes useless! Drive a Hell Cat on the street wide open,, it's wild, I've done it. A Camano if your over 5'10 your pressed for room,
If you ever wanted more power, you could always just build the 392 make naturally aspirated power. You could port and polish the heads, get long tube headers, a higher lifting cam and the biggest thing you could do is get a 426 stroker kit.
6.4L is the best for those who love NA muscle cars and want to keep them stock, maybe add a performance exhaust kit at most. I'd totally buy one over the Hellcat since this is the most powerful Challenger that you can realistically daily.
@@InnoV8Official Yeah I know, I just had to be that asshole that corrects everbody for a min lol nothing personal. I recent just got a charger srt 392 and when I was shopping around before I got it, I found a used 2017 scat pack and the lot still wanted 38k for it. I told them good luck selling it
I've been contemplating getting a 2012-2014 Dodge Challenger SRT8 and boosting the bad boy. Since the pistons are the only weak link in the engine, I'd just drop in a set of forged pistons, and the engine should be good to easily meet Redeye performance numbers.
If you want a supercharger in your car, then buy a hellcat, it's simple as that and to be honest, I believe that naturalyasperated engines sounds better than a whine from a supercharger.
The 5.7L uses a cast iron crankshaft and both have 16 spark plugs that should be changed every 30k. The 6.4L Apache engine uses a stronger forged steel crankshaft and has piston cooling jets. They are both very durable engines that will last 200-300k miles if maintained properly.
I’m leasing my challenger Scat Pack because I wasn’t sure I’d want to keep it… that lasted until I took it out and opened it up. Now I gotta figure out how to buy this sexy beast of a car.
it’s like you made this vid for me, bro. I had a 2012 srt and you always want more power. Sold that car once the family grew. So I’m at the internal debate between spending 30K for a scat OR extra 15K for hellcat. GREAT VID BROTHA.
How do u keep your wheel wells so clean....u know....the black plasic that goes around the tires....wheel wells...i guess that's what its called....correct me if im wrong...
Thanks for your videos man, I'm picking up my 392 Charger on Saturday. I am just now learning about modern muscle, and do not need to go with forced induction on this car since it's just going to be my daily driver weighing in at around 4,400 lbs. (While the Barracuda is down for pretty much a complete rebuild) For lighter and faster AND quicker, I have my Barracuda. 4.10 is about as steep as I want to go with 27-28" tires, and on the street. I have a '73 400 B block (the B blocks 361, 383 and 400 fit a little better in an A body than than the RB blocks 413, 426 and 440) which will be getting some Trick Flow 240 heads and a low rise 360* Offenhauser/Holley dual quad setup (no need for a tunnel ram, I want to hide it under the hood while driving) and a 3.915" crank to bring me to 470 c.i.d. The 470 gives better compression height than either the 451 (400 with a 440 crank) or the larger 500+ c.i.d. mills, and theoretically longer engine life. It will also be naturally aspirated. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get the fish in under 2,800 lbs relatively easily.
Wow, at 2800 lbs you'll be 3/4 of a ton lighter than your Charger. Your 0-60 foot time (hole shot) will be fast. How much rubber are you running? I had a RB 440 in my '70 RT, the stroke was over 3/4" longer than the 383, making the hood bulge necessary. What is your ET on your 'Cuda? I cracked a piston on the 440, replaced it with a blueprinted 383 0.60 over. The new motor was an inch less tall, allowing me to add an Edelbrock Torker (modded plenum) and DP Holly. BTW Direct Connection sells hi-po oval heads for B and RB motors. Also, oval port intake/exhaust headers must be added, Pricey, but there's 60 hp with the stock cam, and about 77 hp with the 'Purple Stripe' (426 HEMI cam profile) installed. The 383 was about 1 sec quicker than the stock rb440, revved about a 1000 rpm higher, but I never dynoed my new motor. I ran 3.73's, like all Chally's, a good hole shot is so important.

I just turned 22 and I purchased a 16 charger rt about 3 months ago I like my 5.7 hemi but eventually will buy a 392 I'm glad i didn't get a 392 right off the back because of I feel like the 5.7 is still good once I finally turn 26 when my insurance cost goes down I'm getting a 392 or better depending on my living cost and job salary
You know originally I wanted a hellcat . But after driving my sons R/T 5.7 i am now thinking that a scat pack 392 would be just fine. Im not going to drag race but couple times just for fun. But wanted some power. The weekend I borrowed my sons car i had to put tires on the rear. It was so easy to blaze them. So im probably going with scat pack
Got a 2012 Challenger Srt8 with the 392 and a 6 speed. 470hp with 3 pedals keep a smile on my face every time i drive it. I disagree on not buying one. They are the ultimate muscle car for looks and enough power to give you plenty of "Wow factor.
6.4 was pretty much meant to leave N/A unless you wanna spend big money into forging internals. You can run boost.. buy you're taking a chance on the 6.4 popping.
The 6.1L Hemi is a much more simple engine pretty much old like technology, the 6.4L Hemi is a good engine but it runs a much higher compression so they simply don't like forced induction, if you want to modify and get much more power without breaking the bank the 6.1L Hemi is the way to go 💪.
in S FL kids are swapping pully's on their SC 6.2L HellCats, retuning and opening up their exhausts and run 800 rwhp on 93 octane. A Demon puts out 740-750 rwhp and costs 25K more than a lightly used H/C. Ain't no place to run them without getting busted. I think that's why so many are 4 sale here. A couple trips downtown for drag racing and it's your license that's blown...been there! :((
I love my Daytona 392 and I love the noise from a N/A engine and in the long run the maintenance is way lower on a N/A then on the supercharged engine. Also I can get 24 MPG by using my automatic cruse control since it’s not available on a hellcat.
Looking for a charger. Deciding to get a 5.7 or 6.4 not sure 🤔 I know the 5.7 are cheaper. Looking to do a few mods but noting to crazy least a muffler resonator delete, intake. If I do the delete there’s no need for an exhaust. Let me know your thoughts best action.
Can’t it handle around 5-7 pounds of boost without a problem. It can push almost 700hp but I know people will want more power and will blow the engine 😔
Damn I really want a Challenger,a R/T but I’m 17...Would it even be possible for me to get a Challenger if so do you think the R/T used of course would be a good choice as I don’t think I’d be able to afford anything higher?
I don't care what other people's reason for not wanting to buy this car. I'm getting it because I absolutely love the car, how it looks, sounds, feels.. I'm not getting it to race I'm getting it purely for fun driving and the love of muscle cars and v8s

In my case I don’t need a hell cat, I can barely contain myself with this. A hell cat would put me in prison
I know right? It takes control. I was minding myself today on the highway while others were passing me. Two police speed traps up ahead. I think they were surprised I was not in the fast pack of drivers. ( I was surprised as well) ;-)
If I get a hellcat I'm naming it Miranda because eventually I'm getting arrested and read my Miranda rights XD
I'm buying a challenger in a year are two because now my Insurance is low enough its not more then a car payment lol. In scared I'll get tickets again once I get the challenger I'm torn between a 5.7 and 6.4.
@@SwampRatt no replacement for displacement XD
I’d be dead in a Hellcat smh. I shouldn’t even have my 5.7 to be honest
I’ve had many fast Mustangs that can beat most 392’s, but none of them have the bad ass old style looks that the Challenger has. Kudos to Dodge. They killed it in the looks department.
Exactly
I recently bought a 22 challenger RT and happy with the power, crazy how some people with the 392 want more power, I test drove that one before buying my RT and spun the whole time, crazy power already in that 6.4.
Never thought I'd see the day where 485 hp on a production car wasn't enough hp. At this rate 10 years from now 4 cylinder cars will be rated at 485 hp from the factory and people will be adding mods to increase hp on 1000 hp cars. Unless you're a professional drag racer at a certain point enough is enough. I own a Dodge Durango with the 5.7 and its the fastest vehicle I've ever owned in my life. I find myself having to remind myself to slow down in order to increase my gas mileage.
The A 45 AMG is already rated at 415 HP and it's a 2L i-4 lol
I think peoople have trouble really figuring out what they really want in a car. Some folks don't get that if your plan is to smoke anything that's on four wheels as soon as you step on the gas, then a 4500 lbs muscle car isn't the way to go. You have small 3000lb, 2L missiles, that put out over 300 hp stock and can be modded up to almost 400, (some of those being all wheel drive btw) and they'll eat big heavy muscle cars alive.
However, as someone who is fully satisfied with the scary mean looks, the charisma, the head turning sound and the sufficient power to spin the rear wheels, my 2009 5.7 is all I could ask for. I couldn't care less about all the BMWs that look the same and the souped up GOLF GTIs that always want to start something lol they're not the ones always getting hit with "wow it's a challenger !!" ;)
It’s crazy I remember owning a 4.6 liter V8Mustang and it produced 285 hp and that was a lot at a time .
I’m not a fan of the supercharger wine; I prefer the low rumble of 6.4 .
Unfortunately no , it will be all electric vehicles:(
Not in Europe lol. We get downsized engines every year! Most manufacturers now offer 1.0L 3 cylinder cars or in some cases even 0.9L!
I bought a 2015 challenger 392 srt it’s been a excellent daily bone stock another then a mid muffler delete. No issues.
The only problem with boosting a 392 is the rings on the piston are placed to high on the piston causing them to be weak and actually brake the piston tops off when boosted. All new rods and pistons are just over $2k for drop ins and will make it boostable.
Hey nice car man. However I've been certified Chrysler for over 15 years and I can tell you the 5.7 has no forged internals. However the 6.4 (392ci) has forged internals. I've got a 2017 challenger srt8 (SRT- STREET and RACING TECHNOLOGY) mine is obviously an N/A car and I put an entire Demon set up on it from top to bottom from supercharger to pulleys with a bigger cam and aftermarket heads I did not touch anything else and I'm putting down over 800hp to the tires on stock internals. With a little more aggressive stahl converter and a moroso posi rear and 3:55 gears. I've had the car for 2 years and bought it with 5,500 miles on it I did everything under 6k miles and car is currently my daily driver and race car (so to speak) it now has over 68k miles and never once had a single issue EVER!!! If any 392 blows up under boost then it's a mechanical error not the engine! I'm more than willing to send dated receipts for the parts/work with mileage intervals to prove what I'm saying alongside a few Dino sheets. I did the job in my own garage and took to be tuned and set up properly. Less than 10k dollars for everything if you shop right and turn your own wrenches. BTW no disrespect to you and your channel but people some things should be better thought out especially when it's about vehicles like this ...... And I'm seriously digging. Your color and rim set up its a slick ride man. Anyway let me know if you want to see anything I have in regards to my car and it's set up. Thanks.
Beckett Cohen i feel like the scat pack should’ve been supercharged or at least more hp.
I can tell you right now the 6.4 does not have forged internals...
6.4 has only a forged a crank. I agree with the OP. I’m currently going a similar route. I opted for the edelbrock 2650 TVS super charger. From what I see, the biggest problem with running boost to the 6.4 is tuning. It appears that with the higher ring position and hyperutectic (sp?) pistons and higher compression, tuning these cars is after important. It seems from my investigating that lean conditions are the culprit most of the time. So fuel pressure and A/f is super important. The tuner I choose talked me out of going forged for my Srt Jeep because I do not want to run more than 8lbs Of boost, this is a daily driver that I hope to achieve 525-550 rwhp. I do not plan consistent track days, just want to give my Srt a little more clout. 2015 it was the fastest SUV, however times have changed. I had 20k ready to go, so the fact that the tuner talked me out of it, shows me that he has confidence it what the engine can and can’t do. We will see, she gets tuned Monday.

Been a car guy my whole life. Ever since my Honda days, I could never ever understand why anyone would boost a factory NA motor, especially one as special as the 392. With some bolt ons and a tune you are easily going to be faster than 95% of the cars on the road.
Hey what kind of bolt ons would you suggest for the 392?
Danté BLRMF air intake etc simple things
New 5.0s make huge power on stock sealed engines . There are stock bottom end ls engines in the low 7 second 1/4 mile zone ..

Not a single all motor 392 is running 10’s pretty sure the only charger I’ve ever seen run tens had over 1000hp

He's totally right. I was going to get a 392 and eventually put a supercharger on it, but looking at the money, hassle and warranty issues it just made more sense to buy a used hellcat. I don't regret it for 1 second.

The car can handle boost. I think you're wrong on that. The car just doesn't handle spark knock at all. very unforgiving. That being said, you have to trust your tuner,. Either way, better to forge it and be safe if you want to boost it.
You clearly didnt watch the whole vid yes it can be built to handle boost but in order for you to forge it its gonna be expensive as fuck already. you might as well buy a hellcat and tune it if you want even more power.

When I bought my first new car over a year ago I didn't even think to check the local Dodge dealership for a 392 or Scatpack Challenger that was used for a decent price. Long story short, I ended up with a Sentra Nismo, and I had this little voice in the back of my head telling me to go check with Dodge to see what they had. There was a used, plum crazy, 392 Scat Pack with the flared fenders and such for about $30 000 CDN (just $2000 more than I paid for my Sentra) and the monthly payments would have only been about $30/month more. I have never kicked myself so hard in my life. I've got my heart set on V8 muscle and to find that I flubbed my shot at owning a Challenger at such a young age is definitely a lesson I won't soon forget. I'm hoping in the next 4 years I can finally get the Challenger I've always wanted, but man it sure is painful seeing so many at my local car meet and just wishing I had done more research before taking the plunge on a lackluster Nissan!
Awww, if FUN is you mission keep your Nissan! ;))
Actually, all of us driving hi powered handsome Mopars have a deep fear of 4 cyl Nissan's. We fear that excessive points may force us into one, someday. Hey, 4 years from now, there will be another quarter million used Chally's out there, including the last of the BB V-8's. Yup, the new '21 'Cuda will have an optional turbo V-6 only. Four cyl standard, just like the 2019 Silverado. So don't wait too long, 2020 may be the end of the HellCat and the HEMI. I've got a feeling they'll quickly disappear into a Mopar Man's garage. MM's don't often sell their beloved rides, either. :((
Imagine calling yourself a tuner or “power adder” as you add 500 lbs of useless crap to your car and rubber band tires... smh
Destroyer Grey Productions, I have a 2018 scatpack shaker, I have a serious question I really want answered.

Naturally aspirated engines have their good points too. Um, what's the air tank for?
Sorry but some of your point's are wrong. Stock scats with a tire have done 11.5. That's faster then a stock 10spd. Also I've seen plenty handle 650whp just fine.
Maybe, but know he's correct about the pistons. They just weren't designed for boost.
Love my Stock 392 Challenger, it's the perfect High-Performance Luxury Old Guys ride, sure she's Heavy, so am I. With the 18 speaker Harmon Hardon stereo, she rocks. The sunroof is a must, adaptive cruise control is also a must have with all the traffic nowadays. With the 8 speed auto, you get MDS (Multiple Displacement System) 4 cylinders cut out and you just coast along getting 30-45MPG when just flowing in bumper to bumper traffic. She loves to run at 85 plus, loafing along at 2k RPM getting about 18MPG. No need for any high-performance mods, cause she's direct-injection stick on an Oil Catch Can.
The 392 6.4L isn't direct Injection, it's multi port injection, and secondly, you don't need a catch can on these 392s because the fuel injectors spray the intake valves thus diluting any oil vapors that get recirculated back into the intake manifold from the positive crankcase ventilation.
@@cf5899 The 392 motor is awesome! I'm Not a mechanic by trade, but I do my own maintenance. I have had a catch can on my since she was new. I drain the catch can maybe around every 2 to 3,000 miles, and every time their has always been a few ounces of oil in it.

6.1 is the hellcat motor size, so unless it had the supercharger it was more than likely a 5.7 or a 392/6.4 that is the thrust of his whole argument, the 6.1 was purpose built specifically for the boost and is the same platform used for all of the supercharged versions. the 392 is not set up for a variety of reasons to have forced induction applied to it w/o serious modification

Interesting, I've heard some people argue that for a daily driver the Scat Pack is the way to go instead of a Hellcat since the power is more usable. I have a 2015 Scat Pack Shaker and I love it. Mine is a 6 speed which a lot of people can't believe since so many people have gotten the auto. I never bought it to be a race car, in fact I bought it to keep stock and it's approaching 40k miles. That said, I want to do a cam, long tube headers, and a Dyno tune next year and crank it up to maybe 550 hp or so naturally aspirated (at the crank). Do you know how these do with cams? It wouldn't be anything crazy since I want to keep it a street car. I know these motors don't do well with boost unless you really build them. So thoughts??
Drop in forged Rods and Pistons from MMX and you’re good to go with up to 1000hp.

I've been contemplating getting a 2012-2014 Dodge Challenger SRT8 and boosting the bad boy. Since the pistons are the only weak link in the engine, I'd just drop in a set of forged pistons, and the engine should be good to easily meet Redeye performance numbers.
6.4 block can definitely handles a lot of power, just the piston and rods are the downside

Thanks for your videos man, I'm picking up my 392 Charger on Saturday. I am just now learning about modern muscle, and do not need to go with forced induction on this car since it's just going to be my daily driver weighing in at around 4,400 lbs. (While the Barracuda is down for pretty much a complete rebuild)
For lighter and faster AND quicker, I have my Barracuda. 4.10 is about as steep as I want to go with 27-28" tires, and on the street.
I have a '73 400 B block (the B blocks 361, 383 and 400 fit a little better in an A body than than the RB blocks 413, 426 and 440) which will be getting some Trick Flow 240 heads and a low rise 360* Offenhauser/Holley dual quad setup (no need for a tunnel ram, I want to hide it under the hood while driving) and a 3.915" crank to bring me to 470 c.i.d. The 470 gives better compression height than either the 451 (400 with a 440 crank) or the larger 500+ c.i.d. mills, and theoretically longer engine life. It will also be naturally aspirated. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get the fish in under 2,800 lbs relatively easily.
the Scatpack is the Ultimate Daily driver in my opinion. Glad you're learning stuff!!
Wow, at 2800 lbs you'll be 3/4 of a ton lighter than your Charger. Your 0-60 foot time (hole shot) will be fast. How much rubber are you running? I had a RB 440 in my '70 RT, the stroke was over 3/4" longer than the 383, making the hood bulge necessary. What is your ET on your 'Cuda? I cracked a piston on the 440, replaced it with a blueprinted 383 0.60 over. The new motor was an inch less tall, allowing me to add an Edelbrock Torker (modded plenum) and DP Holly. BTW Direct Connection sells hi-po oval heads for B and RB motors. Also, oval port intake/exhaust headers must be added, Pricey, but there's 60 hp with the stock cam, and about 77 hp with the 'Purple Stripe' (426 HEMI cam profile) installed. The 383 was about 1 sec quicker than the stock rb440, revved about a 1000 rpm higher, but I never dynoed my new motor. I ran 3.73's, like all Chally's, a good hole shot is so important.
@@crankychris2 Hey Chris, I'm running Mickey Thompson Sportsman ST 255/60r15 on the rear, that's the biggest I can fit in the wheel well without minitubbing it.
I haven't taken the car to Sears Point because there is no way a sane person would race with my suspension. It wouldn't pass tech.
@@ShovelMonkey What a classic car you have. When your done with it, you can turn it into a resto mod and sell it for big bux at auction. Like 'the man' always says "Don't wreck 'em, restore' em". Late 60's Mopars start at 50G's.
@@crankychris2 Not gonna sell it. No no no no no! When my son turns 16 in nine years, he can drive the Charger. I get the Barracuda, I'll use him as slave labor building it up, and if he's good, I'll let him take his girlfriend to Prom in it. You know, the back seat folds down, and the rear deck drops, so you have about the room of a twin bed... Ha!
In regards to my comments regarding the exhaust tips yes you are correct its a matter of opinion, taking nothing away from your car its a beautiful car the comment was not meant to be mean spirited just an honest opinion from a enthusiast and owner of a plum crazy purple 2018 srt challenger thanks for all your videos theyare great
You're welcome man! I prefer the Quad exhaust. I will be going with a Corsa exhaust system in the near future.. which will have the Quad exhaust as well. That's the beauty is we all like different things! Stay up Brian!
Even though the 392 has more HP, I love my 6.1
Canada Guy easier to mod!
I love my 8.1👍👍
@@musclebone7875 8.1 hold up lmao
I just turned 22 and I purchased a 16 charger rt about 3 months ago I like my 5.7 hemi but eventually will buy a 392 I'm glad i didn't get a 392 right off the back because of I feel like the 5.7 is still good once I finally turn 26 when my insurance cost goes down I'm getting a 392 or better depending on my living cost and job salary
If you regret buying a 392, chances are you're a bad driver.
Your round tips DONOT look better than stock what were you thinking
All a matter of opinion. Thanks for yours!
You know originally I wanted a hellcat . But after driving my sons R/T 5.7 i am now thinking that a scat pack 392 would be just fine. Im not going to drag race but couple times just for fun. But wanted some power. The weekend I borrowed my sons car i had to put tires on the rear. It was so easy to blaze them. So im probably going with scat pack
I wouldnt add power to your car.I would keep it as a great looking daily
Why not just add power the old school way? , cam , lifters, Overdrive pulleys, headers, tune, etc etc..
Lots of boost non forged parts equals
Snap Crackle Pop
Got a 2012 Challenger Srt8 with the 392 and a 6 speed. 470hp with 3 pedals keep a smile on my face every time i drive it. I disagree on not buying one. They are the ultimate muscle car for looks and enough power to give you plenty of "Wow factor.
I got dodge challenger 2019 scat pack does me very well at end day do what best for you💯
is this still up to date? or has things improved since the release of this video? i have a 2023 scat is it still not recommended to tune?
6.4 was pretty much meant to leave N/A unless you wanna spend big money into forging internals. You can run boost.. buy you're taking a chance on the 6.4 popping.
The 6.1L Hemi is a much more simple engine pretty much old like technology, the 6.4L Hemi is a good engine but it runs a much higher compression so they simply don't like forced induction, if you want to modify and get much more power without breaking the bank the 6.1L Hemi is the way to go 💪.
in S FL kids are swapping pully's on their SC 6.2L HellCats, retuning and opening up their exhausts and run 800 rwhp on 93 octane. A Demon puts out 740-750 rwhp and costs 25K more than a lightly used H/C. Ain't no place to run them without getting busted. I think that's why so many are 4 sale here. A couple trips downtown for drag racing and it's your license that's blown...been there! :((
What about a cold air and tuner thst should put you around 500 hp safely correct?
I love my Daytona 392 and I love the noise from a N/A engine and in the long run the maintenance is way lower on a N/A then on the supercharged engine. Also I can get 24 MPG by using my automatic cruse control since it’s not available on a hellcat.
Bob Brock I love my adaptive cruise it’s the shit
@@gr33ngoblin84 That's in the tech package, right?
chris chilson I believe so, not sure
Looking for a charger. Deciding to get a 5.7 or 6.4 not sure 🤔 I know the 5.7 are cheaper. Looking to do a few mods but noting to crazy least a muffler resonator delete, intake. If I do the delete there’s no need for an exhaust. Let me know your thoughts best action.
Nice floor mats, now your car looks like a fancy ladies bag inside.
I’ll take your word for it. I don’t carry a ladies bag and never pay attention to ladies bags.
I love my 2023 392 Widebody, Scat pack, Shaker. It's amazing!
Got my 19 Hellcat for 55000 18 miles.
Bob Fish congrats
How much are your payments ?
Can’t it handle around 5-7 pounds of boost without a problem. It can push almost 700hp but I know people will want more power and will blow the engine 😔
Artemis is looking real crisp awesome
Thanks brotha!! Appreciate it. So much more to come. Hopefully you're doing well!
Damn I really want a Challenger,a R/T but I’m 17...Would it even be possible for me to get a Challenger if so do you think the R/T used of course would be a good choice as I don’t think I’d be able to afford anything higher?
Hailstorm K9 get a Honda kid
I got my Hellcat for 43,000 used.
Why is a catch can on it? There isn't much if any blow by. Is it not stock?
