Default bone stock 300C SRT8 runs 12.5@111.5

Perfect conditions, great DA, near sea level. The flying brick!

And before anyone calls BS, I know this guy, he's got a couple of fast cars and is one hell of a driver.

Yeah, personally I hate their looks. another case of a great motoer in search of a good looking car. The sRT8 Charger and Magnum are no better in the looks dept. IMO.

They need a 3700 pound decent looking 2 door body for that motor.

3700lbs is portly for a Coupe. A 3300-3500 2 Door coupe is what Chrysler needs. Oh yea a manual would help too.

I don't know, with new crash standards and such, 3300 I think is dreaming, and that motor drivetrain is heavy....possibly 3500ish, but heck, look at the GTO, that's 3750 and not a very big car.

Those cars out putting down 370 PLUS to the wheels in an automatic..

I think there probaly closer to 450 crank HP....

The 2005 GTO is only dynoing 335-345 to the wheels in the mn6..I think it's closer to 390 crank HP than the 400 they advertise....Since most are lucky to see 340 rwhp...

340 rwhp plus 15% (rw drive mn6 standard)= 391 crank HP

Doing the math the same way for the SRT goes like this...

370 rwhp plus 20% (rw drive a4 standard) = 444 crank HP!!!!!

They are just plain sick....

A recent comparo in road and Track had the 2005 GTO running 13.7 at 103 and the SRT8 running 13.3 at 108 mph....

These were uncorrected numbers...


BTW...Chrysler already has a 3400 pound two door car with 450 HP...

It's called the 2002 Dodge Viper.

Sure you got the GTO numbers right?
MT ran the SRT8 300C 2005 GTO & CTSV:


CTSV 13.1 @ 109.8

SRT8 13.2 @ 108.1

GTO 13.3 @ 107.5

The GTO does fine againt the SRT8 considering it's about $7k cheaper.

There are number of bone stock 05 GTOs gone into high 12s, trapping 108 - 110 mph. Go check out LS1GTO.com.

Which means nothing becase then all the cars in the MT test would have been corrected. Fact is you're quoting times for either a very hot day for the GTO where the ATIS data causes timing to be pulled or the GTO was driven like crap, under reasonable conditions a 2005 GTO is easily a low 13 car at 106+

Both the SRT-8's and the GTO's are beasts, I looked at the GTO before I bought the Z, I just really wanted a convertable, and I dont regret my purchase. Now if I had 45K to spend on a car, it would be the SRT-8 all the way.

What tires was he running on?

Was he completely full weight (spare tire and all)?

Were the A/C and alternator pulleys on?

Did he ice the intake?

Were the airfilter and airbox still attached?

There are more than a few ways to "cheat" a bone stock car. I'm just curious as to how he's that much faster than the other guys out there. Sweet times either way.
