I have gotten several e-mails about, how did they get 10 more horsepower out of the 2006 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T limited edition over the stock 2006 Dodge Charger R/T. Well here is the simple answer...

Chrysler Group engineers developed uniquely tuned intake and exhaust systems to unleash some of the HEMI engine's untapped power for the Dodge Charger Daytona R/T. By using a less restrictive intake system and moving to a straight-through muffler from a three-pass muffler, the newly tuned 5.7-liter HEMI gets a 10-horsepower boost and a throaty, high-performance tone to match.

It was my understanding that it will have a Borla exhaust system kind of like the Daytona Ram. With this system it is a little less restricted therefore more HP.

 

redrider was correct they do change to a straight through center muffler from the three pass, but it is not made by Borla nor will it be

 

hmmm...thats interesting that a small change like that freed up so much power. i also find it odd that borla isnt involved seeing as how so many of the "aftermarket" exhaust systems (ram, stratus, PT, SRT4) are all borla built.

 

dang, so it has 355 horsepower?

 

i thought it was 350...340 in the regular Charger...

i also thought the added horsepower came from the extra decals...just like hondas.

 

Damn Pat, you really hate this thing huh? lol

 

i thought the normal 5.7 hemi pumped 345 + 10 gives 355 for the daytona

 

the charger rt hemi has 340hp. The rt daytona has 350hp due to a less restrictive exhaust. the rams have 345 hp.

 

less restrictive exhaust? thats what The Man says, but i know its really thnks to the decals...
