Hope this helps some 392 guys out there looking to add some power!!! Thanks guys for the support.
Wish dodge would hurry their A$$ up and come out with the performance packs for the 392 cars
Thank you for delivering Mopar info - 392 especially!!
I have a Challenger SRT 392 and with a few mods it has almost the perfect amount of horsepower for the street. It is great making gobs of horsepower, but it is worthless if you can't put it to the ground. I don't spend much time at the track to use Hellcat level power.
@@taddmason1187 I'm saying!! I don't wanna buy a CAI and mid muffler delete when the tuning kits will be better but they're taking too long!
@@hisherhemi I was going to cam and tune my car and then they announced the kits so I just put that on hold until the kits came out but it's screwing me in a way because I really want it but don't really look like they are going to ever come out with it
I would love to see you do a more in depth video on building a 392 with a price breakdown, HP gain per mod breakdown. Keep up the great work, brother.
I should have dove more into prices & ballpark hp/torque gains. Got so wrapped up with the drag racing footage & editing. Thanks man
@@RTLife It was still a great video. It was very informative. I would love to see a longer and more informative video like this one if you get the chance.
I did a full build myself on my 1320 throttle body, intake, heads, cam, converter and longtubes for $5,800! Love it
Thanks for the love man, btw wide body mopar Mike ran 9.006 tonight.. its about to crack 8s! And my cars also stock headers! I just have the stainless works mids.. about to test more stuff for the all motor gains.. goals 10.5 with the stock headers and stuff come fall.. nothing too crazy.. but these cars have alot of potential.. and my car trapped 126mph.. she keeps pulling hard up top.. it dont stop! Goal was to do my car in a kind of budget type build.. hence the stock suspension minus bmr lowering springs.. but its about to get less budget minded to get that last little bit!
Last year was like a tease lol 9.00 , 9.01 ,9.03 I said got damnit lol
can't wait to see it play out. Going to keep tabs on your progress & updating people. Keep up the great work & showing what these Hemi's can do
Give me a 392 engine and a decent set of heads, and I'll poke & stroke it to a full 7 liter(426), run 10.5:1 compression w/factory 6.4 manual trans cam & new lifters, good exhaust and it'll make well over 500 RWHP(with good forged pistons & H-beam rods, of course)that is reasonably manageable and will idle fairly smooth. Need more power? Add a supercharger and use 9.5 compression instead.
My '14 300C hemi would be the recipient of this power-adder, it's already a sleeper to begin with.
So many options modding up a 392. I do like the idea of stroking it to a 426 though.
@@RTLife saw a N/A version w/11:1 comp, Comp cams 270 grind cam, long tubes, ported throttle body and a thorough tune make 590 RWHP. One screaming hemi there.
@@MM_in_Havasu fuckin hell man damn, all i can say is god bless america LMAO
When you have a high compression engine the only thing you can do is add on things that can improve exhaust or intake other than that you will have to drop the compression on the motor
The nice part of the higher compression is you can run low boost & it's pretty efficient with it. But yah def some limiting factors but you can get a very quick ride without breaking parts
As the owner of a 392 Jeep, I don’t have traction problems and I’m satisfied with the power i have so no mods for me. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
That AWD is key! I used to love driving my wifes SRT Jeep - launching was so fun.
@@RTLife is there anything we can add in the jeep without breaking the bank?
Ok ok!! I like it! Gonna look into it
def can make these 392 quick!
@@RTLife really good options to consider . . . Thanks 🙏🏻
"Built not bought" is a statement of pride in your ride A N D its not owned by any particular make/model!!!!
That's how I see as well. It's about building & modding a ride to your specs. I think it's the funnest part of owning these rides!
Appreciate the 392 info.
def doesn't take much to throw up really solid times
I’m no racer and for a daily driven scat I couldn’t be happier but if I were to mod the beast it would just be a stroker and a cam
Understandable. What would you stoke it out to? 426 or 440?
@@RTLife 426 would probably be plenty lmao. 440 would be awesome and just a guess but I’m sure it’s a little more difficult to do a 440 than a 426. Plus the legend of the 426 hemi 😎
Agreed
Best channel for Hemi content 💯 We appreciate you 🤝
Thanks man, I really appreciate it.
I just recently purchased a scat pack challenger wide body and I like those simple modes that you installed to clock on the track at 10.88 that’s really impressive!
Mack has that thing moving! We have a race coming up next week. 💪💪💪
He really does a great job building up these Hemi's - it's impressive! I think you got this, but he's going to come back with nitrous.
@@RTLife hes actually going to race my female fran in my car.. she gets the hit.. I want to get her some seat time.. but my nitrous will be in soon and me and Don are gonna battle it out for sure. I can't wait.
Too many under informed non mechanical engine people make ignorant asinine comments about the 392 and 5.7, just because they have a Hellcat. I’ve watched people with Scatpacks and RT’s beat Hellcats with their own modifications, that didn’t break the bank to do it. If you got the bank to afford a hellcat, demon, or jailbreak, bless you, but stop with the idiotic comments that the 392’s and 5.7’s are less then. Not every person has money for the “bought” monsters, as we afford what we can afford and do our builds as we can do over time. Funny thing is I held my own with my Charger 5.7 against other sports cars out there, at times when challenged. There’s faster cars and there’s slower cars, and enjoy my car no less. So to all you people who don’t have “bought” monster money, I salute you, that work your wrenches!!
100% agree with you
Love the drag footage and cut shots. 👍🏻
always nice to show actual footage to back up what you're talk about. Thanks man
Great footage my Dude keep up the Grind
Thanks man, def shows you can make solid power with these 392's
Im glad i have an srt already. This will make adding power that much more enjoyable.
You're going to enjoy building power with that SRT. Has a great starting point
That’s some serious horsepower and some real good numbers 😁👍
Def impressive what you can do with limited upgrades in place.
R/T Life, I’ve been following you for quite some time. Congrats on the channel, car, and your successes. Keep up the great content bro🤙🏽🤙🏽
Thanks man, I really appreciate it. Just trying to make some entertaining Mopar content & have a little fun in the process.
Way to educate everyone. Keep up the good work.
Thanks man, def shows you can really build a lot of power with these 392's
Great video...my 1320 stock has been CRUSHING camaros and mustangs. As long as we are both stock that is. But I still want it faster!! So this is cool to see. Taking it to Atco for its 1st run this week🤞
1320 is such a great package. I filmed 2 stock 1320's running mid/low 11's at Atco. Let me know how it goes for you.
I gotta save this video. I'm not trying to get to 800 horsepower or anything like that....but I could go for like 500 whp....maybe even 600.
It can be done & the 1/4 mile times with that power level is impressive.
Banging content as always 👌
Thanks man, I really appreciate it.
Thanks for this video! I’m glad to see a 392 in the 10’s
Shows you can make a 392 real quick with a few upgrades!
Appreciate the love for 392 I have a chrysler 300 srt 392 It's in the shop I'm adding long tube headers, cam stage 2 ,custom tune ,cai,160 thermostat, I'm boring out the cylinders, and am about to e85 I'm excited to sm9ke some cats hopefully!!!!!!
DAMN! Big boy power in that 300 SRT. You should be well over 500whp after that. Nice - let me know how it drives when you get it back.
There are many paths. Buy what you can and do whatever you want. You’re never “stuck” with whatever power level you have from factory. There’s plenty to do to all of these cars.
Agreed. Half the fun is upgrading & changing your ride around.
Another great video.
Hope you and the family enjoying Florida. Keep the videos coming
The sunshine state is treating us great. Couldn't be happier! Thank you very much
NOT BAD
agreed
I wish there was more stuff for the 6.4 equipped HD trucks... I have CAI and a catback...but so much back an forth with tuners and such whether they are worth it or not..
Have you loaded up a tune yet? A hellcat throttle body will help pick up some low end torque
@@RTLife any suggestions on a good tuner for the trucks? Thanks for the info about doing a hellcat throttle body... never thought of car parts on the truck!
@@ZDEZIGNZ I would check out the Diablo i3 or T2 tuner. Both have a 93 tunes loaded up that will give that 392 a nice bump in performance.
I watch your video all the time and came a long way brother happy for you keep making video.be safe
Thanks man, I really appreciate the support! Def having fun with this R/T
Me to I got a 2019 b5 blue Dodge Challenger RT myself.having fun myself
U moved to Florida
Yes, around Feb 2nd. We're loving it here!
That’s good I live right near Orlando myself
Great content and insight. Luv your channel. Am big on 392s
They're great engines & pretty simple to make power with. You can get them running fast!
I lovey 392. Have driven hellcats and are very intoxicating but the 392 is goldilocks' sweet spot
yah the 392 has a perfect amount of performance for street/strip fun. It's affordable & still throws up very respectable times.
Rick knows how to build 392 monsters and dave knows how to tune the hell out of them too can’t wait to get mine back from them
😈 should be able to pick up Monday.
You're going to be a happy camper. They will make sure it's ripping!
@@OMGITSMRMACK Ahhhhhh shit
So if these few modifications make 392 faster than hellcat, 500hp vs 700hp, It sounds like hellcats are overrated. 🤔
Not really. If the 2 did a 60-160 roll race you would see the hellcat take off. 1/4 mile wise though the 392 does great esp once you have some upgraded pieces around it.
500 whp so crank hp would be around 600-620 the similarities is seen from about 0-130 after that the hellcats hp has the advantage
The difference is all in the grip. Sticky drag radials make a world of difference in 1/4 mile times. Those cats in the video were all on street tires so they couldn't launch, and really couldn't get on the throttle 100% until they were already moving down the track
@stuart bentley nah. I can show run after run of hellcats running 11's. 3-4 Modern Hemi shootout worth of videos. The only hellcats getting into the 10's were tuned or had a lower pulley. This is at Atco - the dream spot for all the best times.
@@leezynotyeezy2140 the 2 hellcats at Orlando were racing with Mickey Thompson ET street R 305/35/18 - 18" wheels. I try not to load up runs of guys on street tires at the drag strip.
Wow that guy at the beginning was a tool.
He says some wild stuff. I've seen a few of his tiktoks
Thank you for this one because people do drag the Scat Packs like the Scat is stuck in the shadow of the hellcat. No disrespect to the hellcat-I still ❤️ the hellcats, but I got my WB Scat for $44k brand new with options and after having it the hellcat is not $40k dollars more car, so that leaves LOTS of 💰 for modifications. They are both Hobby horses; I would have modified the hellcat too and therefore I have concluded most of the folks dragging scat pack owners are just trolls and shit talkers; the 1320 is an Awesome bargain 🤓 for the 💰
That's a lot of $$$ to build yourself a fast 392! The best part is you can make it your own & enjoy the process of seeing it slowly getting faster. I enjoy the process of modding to an extent. Makes owning them so much more fun.
The 1320 is a keeper..I love my 392 as well...I drive it more than my hellcat
brother how the heck did you get a specced wb scat for 44k when RTs are going for 44k these days specced out
I was a scat pack charger owner for 3 years and I recently traded it for a hellcat redeye wide body challenger last month. With all due respect the scat pack is not even in the same class of car as the hellcat redeye. Don’t let anybody lie to you bro. Hellcats cost more because they perform better and they’re built better. It’s totally worth the money if you can afford it.
I got my WB in April of 2020 just as the pandemic began; perfect storm-who knew; I was saving up for a hellcat and flinch at the idea that in 2022 when I had saved up enough to not have buyers remorse, I wasn’t trying to pay over $750 a month for any car, I figured I wouldn’t get a hellcat if I waited because of supply issues; people were hoarding all kinds of shit 2-years ago, so I figured if I was wrong I could a;ways try for a new hellcat later-6-speed manual was a non negotiable-had to have it-can’t get that spec new today-I got lucky 🍀
Great content man; my Scat is stock and plan to keep it that way unless I win the lotto haha
I hear you! Maybe try a 93 tune & tires. Makes a big difference & you're not killing your bank account
Watching again.
Thank you for padding that watch time!
I think I'm just going to bite the bullet and grab a computer and do a tune. Have to start there anyways. I was hoping to get 11's with no mods. 12.08! Man I was sooo bummed. We don't have many days of good DA and I was pissed I had to run with street tire cars. So I couldn't get out of the hole.
I saw on Instagram. So close!!! Once you have 93 tune in that 392 it will hit 11.8 range. Then you can try an emailed tune to squeeze a little more performance out.
What is some of your best time
Nothing to report yet. I drove it a few months ago & had some issues with transmission & fueling so I've been saving up
@@RTLife just keep on doing the great videos and you will be there in no time
Appreciate the shout out for the 392s (middle child) ;)
Shows you can make some nice power with a 392. Great engine
I believe my next step would be 1320 Springs, BWoody suspension kit and 17” tires for a fully built Stroker 5.7L. This is going to be fun…
That is going to really net you a lot of performance. Grip & Rip!!!
@@RTLife yessir!!
I got the chrysler 300 srt back with the 392 u asked me to update you on I got the hellcat camshaft longtube headers full exhaust e85 flex fuel, cai ,fully forged internals right now in Colorado I'm at 535 which is good for Colorado altitude but at sea level I bet it's a different beast for sure we have no oxygen here but ti mitigate that I have a whipple 3.0 supercharger coming in the next week or so it will b 750 to wheels is what I'm expected with around 12lbs of boost but it feels good really happy with my build
If you could would you give a breakdown of the mods with a parts price and HP gain just rough estimates would be great I know you do a lot of work with the Hemi's and I love watching your channel as well. I've been thinking on getting a used scatpack and doing these types of upgrades. Thank you for your time and have a great day
This is why I went with the 1320. It's already set up pretty well..
smart move. 1320 has a lot of great pieces in place for a solid price out of factory. I think it's the best bang for buck in the line up
@@RTLife yeah.. getting things moving towards the drag wheel set up.. waiting for Dodge to drop the upgraded computer performance parts that have a TBD date so far.. but on street tires Falken 450AS I ran 12.35@109.. the track is known for being 0.2 seconds slower.. so, got some room to work..
Definitely need to redo this video with price, parts & possible hp and torque gains etc per
Im definitely interested in getting my 392 into the 10s without the need of boost.
Man this makes me want to make bad decisions on my 1320. I'm excited my next runs will be on 17" Forgestar D5s with 305s. Only thing I've done performance wise so far.
Makes a big difference right?! That 392 needs real tires in the back for all that torque
U don’t need boost at all I’ve ran 11.56 motor no mods just tires and intake not even a tune
I don't doubt it. Tires make a massive difference with the 392. Wait until you try a dyno or emailed tune!
@@RTLife Iam getting there had to make the cars look perfect first that’s the next steps are tuned
Yo the beginning is great lmao
Shows how quick these 392's can get with very limited upgrades!
Take any R/T and add a 427 stroker and kill any hell cat but you will need a super charger to catch up with the hellcat acceleration get injectors rear end gears a few more tweaks a tune and yeah tires
I have a 392, I’m planning on Getting a BGE 6.4 and drop in piston & rods from HHP. along with custom cam for boost. How do you think it would do with twin turbos ? Do you think this is a good route to go ?
Well last night I raised the bar last night now 9.00 so got damn close to my 8.99 on boost only
You're 392 is a monster! I watched some of the videos yesterday. Congats on the new personal best. Keep it up!
All these cars need is weight reduction and a tire. Cars already make great power.
if they made them around 500-600lbs lighter it would make a massive difference
I have a 392 BGE that'll take 20+ psi 😈
Party time buddy let’s get it 🤙
Big Nicky has entered big boy status! Going 9's in a Ram soon. Congrats man on the progression of the build
@@RTLife thannx bro , we will eventually go 9s once we get a built trans and and really turn the power up on this motor. Full return fuel system is done also 👍
There’s a guy on TH-cam with shorty headers gapping full bolt on cammed 392s
Well damn all I need are drag radials and I'll be in the low 11s😂 How do you like that hood I just bought?
hahhaa - I think he had skinnies, wheel/tired, tune, intake in there. Still pretty impressive to run mid or high 11's ( def mispoke on that). I will check out the new upgrade.
That chop is amazing! 392 sounds great
@@RTLife thanks bro I appreciate it. Mike Starck did the work on it. He did the tune, cam and long tube headers. Oh and the install of the hood.
@@bigdill_3922 lol, you say you don’t race.
What is the race weight on the cam only blue Scat ?
Can this be applied to a 2013 charger srt8
How do you feel about the Nexen tires and stock rims for the 1320? Should I go with Mickey Thompsons? Feels really quick but I can always go faster
I would give the Mickey T ET Street a shot. They really do a great job gripping esp. warmed up
Sounds good I haven't ran any stock times but after that I definitely will 🔥
Bro...something is not adding up. Stock hellcats run 11.9. Stock trackhawk 11.5. And you're telling me this scat was running low-mid 11s BEFORE the cam? 🤔 And THEN hitting 10s with just a cam? I mean...the video doesn't lie, he ran in the 10s, but off only a cam and and intake?? There's gotta be some nitrous on that thing. I have Jeep SRT and Ive cammed it. Also have an intake and catless, and tuning with demon performance, and I'm not shaving a full second off of anything lol. And I never heard of a scat beating hawks and cats off of a simple cam.
I've recorded 93 tuned 392 scatpacks on just wheel/tire hitting 11.7's - So I'm sure with intake, dyno tune & a couple of bolt on adjustments mid 11's is possible. He installed that cam & broke into the 10's - his best run was 10.7 but with another driver in the seat. His next step is a 100 shot of nitrous I believe to see if he can get into the 9's.
@@RTLife damn man. Well that puts into perspective that perhaps a hellcat is not worth the extra 20-30k. 5k into the scat and you're beating a stock hellcat. Very cool
What’s the total price of all this
after tuning my transmission keeps over heating and acting up
I would talk to the tuner about that. They should be able to make some adjustments
I have the 392 SRT what would be the best cam for the 392 comp cam??
A custom grind cam is the best in regards to gaining the most performance. it's just the most expensive route. Comp Cam 270, 274 sounds great & is affordable
@@RTLife Thank you bro!!
Reason scats only need 500 rwhp to beat stock hellcat is they weigh 500 to 600 pounds lighter
Shout out to my boy Scat Pack Jack!!!
💪💪💪💯💯💯👍
Def makes some power!
I mean that's great but might as well get a hellcat and more it if u want power that bad 🤷🏾♂️
I hate the hate 392s get.. maybe we love the sound of a naturally aspirated engine. Maybe we can’t afford cats.. maybe both are true 🤫
it's crazy & silly how many haters there are! I guess everyone needs to be in a lambo or tesla plaid
I love all these cars, but there’s no way in Hell I’m paying double what I paid for my T/A 392. It’s mostly a weekend toy and it’s fine for my needs
@@DKLabs99 ❤️
How to blow up your $50,000 car lol
6-7lbs of boost isn't blowing up anything if the tuner is half decent
A Scat Pack is NOT a 392. The author should know that simple fact.
yup. I think people just think 392 = scatpack because it's the most common 392
I love how people talk shit about other car lovers... very childish!!!
LoL thats the thing...
Ppl have to UPGRADE to beat an Hellcat or Demon 😂
Its Really funny hearing ppl say "yup, i beat hellcat or Demon" 😂
Its not easy to beat factory hellxat or demon w out upgrades
Why is that funny?
isn't it part of the fun of owning a ride, modding & measuring it vs fast stock rides?
@@RTLife its funny cause ppl have to mod to beat 1.
Demon has gapped 1000hp awd Bugatti
Im gad u mentioned Roll Racing,because IMO ,Roll racing is nothing more than playing, (lets do a 40 roll )ok 👌 well next race give me a 50 roll ,and back and fourth with the nonsense,plus it has to be the most inaccurate form of racing AKA playing i ever seen, I hear how a mustang gt A10 is faster than a scatpack ,Well on a Roll yes but at a dragstrip with 2 stock cars with 2 capable drivers No.Also the scatpack has a 3.09 diff ,and a 8 speed the mustang has a 10 speed So What if someone put a 2.62 rear from a Hellcat into the scatpack ,That will definetly even up the roll racing thing,I would actually love to see it but i dont know anyone who has ever put a 2.62 ,I mean why would ya? You would lose that awesome out of the hole power somewhat ,but it would benifit on a Rolll,Anyway just typing my thoughts from wen u mentioned roll racing,and from the tome in ur voice u feel pretty much how i do.....🤣
The amount of error & excuses after watching a roll races is comical. I do enjoy roll racing myself because its fun & quick burst. But the real test is 1/4 mile on prepped road (drag strip).
You’re not getting 500whp out of a scat pack with cam and heads 💀💀💀
Right, you're getting more lol it's faster that hellcat
These 392's are running the same cam, here is the dyno footage
