What did you do to your Hellcat today?

Yeah, that crash beam weighs a ton

Installed a knock off redeye hood on the charger. I got a good deal on a redeye air box so needed the hood. I still need to center it.

So with the new hood and air filter setup, my inlet temps are down 6-8*F My old hood with a rigged up intake sealed to the vent was usually 2* above ambient. I can now go below ambient 3-4*F due to the chiller. Ill see in a few weeks if the intake change makes a difference over the afe I had sealed to the hood.

When I ran my 9.6 with the afe I used the dry filter. We have a DPF flow machine at work so I put the filter on it to run a test. The afe dry flow was 3"hg restriction. Put a demon Filter on it and it pulled around .5"hg I then put on an oiled afe filter and it pulled around 1.5"hg The car sounds and feels happier now even at 9* timing 93 tune.

Good luck.

Hoods are impossible to line up. Still trying to line up my new hood right

Oem or aftermarket?

Ordered a set of drag radials, hoping they get the order correct. Thinking I need to switch to a 17" rim in the rear.

I also have bought walmart batteries for my other cars. Had to get one for my Jeep last year and the girlfriends daughters car

I had to finally replace my battery on my 16 HC @ the end of last summer...I dont shop around I just go to Auto Zone @ the corner of my street and buy a premium battery..I ran the car sparingly for a month before putting the car away..(in a 65 degree humidity controlled garage)..@ some point from mid November to last wk the battery tender failed...and the battery was stone cold dead..I put it on a 10amp charge for 2 hrs.then another hr @ 5 amps...I ws surprised a "new" battery went totally dead in just under 4 months stored in a warm environment

It's not a bad battery, our cars drain it when just sitting why they need to be unplugged or a tender is needed
