2008 Challenger

1 of 1 - The only one that will be blue. Only standard colors are Black, Silver, Orange. One sold at B-J (#3 maybe) for about 170K, I think #1 sold to a dealership for about 250K.

Nice looking car!

We have 4 black challengers allocated to the dealership I work for, and I believe we paid regular dealer cost for them. That blue one is something very special though. As stated it will be the only one painted b5 blue. It is a Richard Petty special edition, and from what I understand the proceeds will go to the victory junction gang charity.

Orange would be loud, and looks like a Dukes of Hazard car - don't need that level of attention :mrgreen: I like the Bright Silver best of all (after the B5 blue) as a sleeper color, but can't hang with the $41K tag though :oops:

I've been involved a little around the edges so far with the Hemis, now take one of two superchargers coming out of Australia and install

Pretty close to instant 550 RWHP.

Have they improved the bottom end of the hemis with the 6.1? I'd heard that the first 5.7s were blowing the bottom ends out pretty regularly at around 450 horses. Bob tufcj

We need Jeff/Blown7 to chime in here - although he might be too busy replacing his 6.1 with his new crate engine.... :shock: Jack

Yes there hanging together now with new tuning options, I blew an engine already, took out 6 pistons on a 2-3 rd shift at 110 MPH, ( I disabled short term knock sensors)
Damn top ring land is only .100 thousanths thick.
One guy has already got a 6.1 into the 10's in the quarter.

New crate has a building manifold with a Whipple undeneath

Silly Jeff, you need to put a runner on each intake, not just one! 8)
