I've got my '05 R/T in the shop for a driveline vibration and they gave me an '07 300C to drive.
I played with the steering wheel music and compass buttons to get the "secret" gauge readouts, and discovered there is an automatic 0-60mph timer on there!
It's pretty neat. I just wondered if the newer Magnums had this feature as well.
By the way, I got a 5.78 second 0-60 time. I think I'll try to better that tomorrow!

 

i think it is available on the magnums too. i have this feature on mine.

 

Cool, I'll have to find out if there's any kind of software upgrade I can do to get that on my '05.
I was surprised by the 5.12 before I realized it was an SRT!! Nice time!

 

I would like to have that to.

 

i don't have a srt. it's an '06 magnum R/T. i only tried the timer once when i was at the track.

by the way, i added this feature to my car by swapping the whole cluster into my car.

 

Oh, I was fooled by the cluster. Thought it wasthe SRT. Makes the time even more impressive!!

 

Hey,
I have an 06 magnum RT and it doesnt have the 0-60 timer on it. I was wondering how difficult it was to swap out the cluster and the guages to the srt-8 style? Are the guages accurate?

 

It is a new option on the '07's. The only way to get it is buy an '07 or of course swap out the guage cluster.

this is a direct plug in swap. all gauges works and are still accurate. as long as you use a magnum srt cluster in a magnum, you won't have any issues. i used a charger superBee cluster in a magnum and had a small issue with the rear gate. the signal for the rear gate or the trunk is controlled through the cluster. there is a 4.7 ohm resistor difference between the charger and the magnum.

 

Okay this begs the question: How much difference in does the 91 lbs make between the Charger R/T and the Magnum R/T in the 0-60 mph range?
They should almost be the same.
