Hey guys. I have a police charger (pursuit) for 2021 I believe The engine was a 5.7 liter v8. I sold it for 1.5 Grand. I want to get a hellcat engine and swap it in. I also want to install a twin turbo setup and 4.5 liter Whipple. I would also like to do some weight reduction without ruining the weight distribution. I would guess the easiest way to do that would be carbon fiber everywhere. I want to keep all the seats. I would also want to use a CVT if possible.

 

CVT is a bad idea with a high horsepower motor. No one makes one that will stand up to that kind of power. Stick with the 8 speed.

Turbos on top of the blower??? Gonna have to get serious with the engine then. O-ring the block/heads, forged pistons, a VERY custom tune..... etc.

Gonna be hard to offset that additional weight on the front as well..... Don't know what carbon fiber parts are available for the charger.... Likely the hood, at the very least, (if it doesn't already have one....) the rest? Just don't know.

 

Thank you for the serious answer bro. How much would it cost, do you think, minus the car?

 

Thanks for the serious answer bro. How much do you think all this would cost, minus the car? I was hoping to wrap it black, get a large yellow decal of the pursuit logo. It looks sick in my opinion.

You could go 'inexpensive' on the parts, but, then you would likely be replacing them fairly often..... Could spend more initially, and in the long run, it would likely be cheaper.... (assuming of course, it doesn't blow up, get wrecked/stolen....) Biggest expense is gonna be the motor itself.... New, them fellers are over 20K, likely MUCH more these days. (been a while since I looked, so, they *may* have gotten cheaper, but, wouldn't hold my breath on that....) Gonna be lots of fabrication involved as well, then the custom tune...... I would expect north of 10K if you went with cheap parts, and a used motor...... Probably well north.... Going new, and good parts? 30-50K.... Yeah, not an inexpensive proposition no matter how you slice it. How much of the work you can do yourself plays a role there as well, and if labor rates in your area are expensive, both those estimates could be REALLY conservative...

Might be cheaper to START with a Hellcat in good condition, and take it from there. Otherwise, there is a lotta lotta 'stuff' you would need to source/beef up. And even then, you will likely break something every time you step on the gas hard.

 

Ouch. I would give my soul for a demon 170 lol
Seriously tho, guess I'll have to go with a turbo Camry....

 

 

 

I would loose the two rear doors!

 

Are they too tight....?
