The new SRT Charger has about 425HP and 425TQ top speed about 190mph
with a good driver and track conditions with a bone stock it should run about low 13s

In a straight line, the SRT8's are roughly equal to the Camaro SS.

The Challenger is a LY platform, and the Charger is a LX platform.... very similar but differ by a few inches in length. Most of the parts are swappable between the platforms, so they are very similar in power, handling, size, etc.

My SRT8 ran 13.3 @ 109 with exhaust-only at a DA of ~+1700 and a 2.15 60ft time (nursed it off the line). A good driver in a stock SRT8 will run similar or better in better conditions. A tune will drop 3/10s off that time. If a driver does not know the right combinations of traction control settings,the SRT8 likes to courtesy shift to 2nd right off the line, resulting in some poor times. A tune will remove that.

No. The Challengers, Chargers, and 300 SRT8's all have the same drivetrain and are within a few pounds of each other. But there is also a Jeep Cherokee SRT8 that has the same engine, but thats pretty much all that they share.
