Inside Line got ahold of their 2011 Challenger SRT8 392 test car long enough to put it on a dyno and they got 452 rwhp...on the same dyno that found the 2010 Camaro SS (LS3) to have just 370 rwhp..

wowzers! 12.40 if they shaved 500-1000 lbs of that beast, I wonder what it could do.

In a couple years once I am settled into the new place and my empty garage spot gets filled this could be it... But it goes against everything I said I would never do again for a toy car... That being buying a car that will loose $$.

All black... No factory stripes as it will get flat black strips. Lower, wheels powder coated black and tint. And of course an extra 200HP under the hood would be the mods.

Finally, Chrysler is stepping their game up to make the Challenger the beast it's always needed to be!

Good lord... GM needs a supercharger to make those kind of ponies (500+ bhp), that's quite impressive. Now if that tune makes it to production will be the other question. But, it would go to show the potential this 392 beast has.

Looks like I'll have to finish the twins for my truck sometime soon and add a little more fuel so as not to get left in the dust... Not to mention get my 408 stroker put together for the Intrepid.
