🔧 BUILD Durango Hellcat
- Thread starter S8ER01Z
- Start date
Local YouTuber reached out and asked to do a video on our Durango Hellcat. We filmed everything last week and he released it today.
Met up with The Chief Donut maker last week for some goofing around. Anyone into RC cars? He wants to change gearing now and figure out how to keep the front down on his Traxxas ? those things are quick!!!
Got some cold weather down here with that crazy weather that rolled through. I am still testing different RPMs and looking for the best launch. Dragy says 3.23 0-60 with 1ft rollout (the magazine number these days). Still have a lot of warranty left but I am already wondering what a pulley / tune would manage.
Pulley and tune will 100% for sure wake her up, add flex fuel with those 2 mods and now your talking lol.
I've seen some fast ones doing fuel upgrades (injectors + pump?), e85, upper/lower pulley and tune. Saw this one hit 9.09 @ 150mph (huge list of mods) but I don't need anything that crazy.
A nice 850-900hp would make it pretty potent from a roll (it's great from a dead stop already just weak from a roll).

Satera_Tuning can get you there (850-900). Imo 775-825whp is perfect for the TH and Durango if your not chasing a 9 second slip. It will hang with most shit on the street and will absolutely hurt some feelings lol.I wouldnt say they are weak from a roll, if your in the correct gear from a roll it will snap your head back and pin you to your seat.
If your just punching it while in drive then yes it will feel weak. My TH ( I know yours is a Durango) was pretty decent from a 40-100 roll, after 100mph then aerodynamics start coming into play.
I figured out how to force it down from a roll (hold left paddle in manual mode and slap back to auto) and yeah it definitely pulls hard but looking at my trap speeds (118 best) it can't really play with anything fast (the hellcat cars just smash it) in stock form. 0-100 it's crazy but 100+ I can really feel it slow.. like you said the aerodynamics aren't great.

This maybe the best vehicle I will ever own... I can't think of many things that can do everything this can (tow, haul the entire family, haul ass, etc). I am aiming for a much better car to park next to it down the road but from a 'do it all' aspect this thing is nuts.

If they just added those bubble flares like the challenger and charger got, that thing would be MONEY2024 Dodge Durango Hellcat Rides Again as the Challenger and Charger Die

All goodWell shit. I didn't mean to post that in the build thread
I wonder if this will help the lawsuit or not 
“one year only” 
Getting ready to make the trip back the Iowa/Illinois tomorrow for the holidays. This is where the AWD / Jekyll and Hyde nature really comes into play. No need to worry about the snow in the mountains or whatever we may encounter on the way.
Day 1 ending in Kentucky. Mountains are a blast in this thing and had an impromptu run with an Audi RS4 that was nearly a dead heat (though I believe he was just starting to take it well into the triples).
For anyone curious of how bad the mileage is… I reset when I left town and left it for the entire trip (average speed was 70ish).
