We were talking about vs our camaro interior ! But whereas the red dash panels on for the Corvette ? I seen them with red dash panels too, makes the interior pop like the Camaros with color interior.

I will give it up to Dodge if the ECU keys are given to tuners to play with.

If I can buy a Hellcat on Monday and have a pulley, cam, revised intake, and tune etc done by Friday - the Hellcat will be a winner in my book.

Reading on Viper forums over the frustration that even the Gen IV owners are dealing with (locked ECU) - it wont take much to make even the SS Camaro or the SS sedan beat a Hellcat

I mean they are building this car for their "5%" group that wants more. I wondered if they bothered to ask that same 5% - how many would modify their stock car to go faster

To me this has been SRT/Dodge's fatal flaw. I love my Ram - but i have no intentions on making it faster.

Hmmm. Same problem with current M5. The ECU is encrypted... Only piggy backs are available. No one can get in the ECU.

Of course the CTS-V and Hellcat Charger will most likely be tested against each other because of their similarities (both have a 6.2L supercharged V8, both have 8 Speed Automatics, both are RWD, etc.) but in the end this is not GM's intended answer for the Hellcat Charger.

As far as Ford...Ford has nothing at all! Unless there is going to be a bad ass next gen Ford Taurus, all is quiet on this front.


Lo and behold, the Hellcat Charger sits alone in its own unique space, power and price-wise.
Wishful thinking, blasphemous at that, but maybe GM answers with a 4 Door Chevelle? I think Ford isn't going to take this kick in the balls too lightly. I bet the next gen Taurus is a looker and has a real punch to it.

I understand Mopar encrypting the ECU. If someone throws a tune on it, a pulley, headers, etc and grenades the motor or trans and returns it all to stock and takes it in..should Dodge be responsible for the repair?

In the past Mopar gave Arrington tuning ability. My guess is a very select few companies will get tuning ability.

It isn't any manufacturers responsibility to pay for others mistakes
