When I read typical 5.0 propaganda posts I would have expected you to blow his doors off pretty easy. I'm honestly shocked that the runs were close. Thanks for the posts and results! I'm really curious to see how each of you run at the track.

With those mods that Challenger should be running in the 12s easily with the amount of torque it makes.. I figured it would be about even with y'all.. Intake and tune and you would hand him his a$$ though

This is good information to have. My uncle has a stock RT Charger, maybe I don't want to run him...
Great post.

I am VERY suprised at the outcome. My 2010 RT Challenger ran 8.90s @ 80 mph in the 1/8th with a 2.0 60ft (mods were CAI, exhaust, and tune), my friends bone stock 2012 GT ran 8.20s @ 88mph with a 2.0 60ft.

Go figure!!

<- still afraid a stock 5.0 will dust him.

Not sure what to tell you guys. He has had his car in the high 12's with those mods, I've seen the slips, and this is guy is not a B.S.'er. He evidently ran mid 13's stock, and the mods added about 40whp. All seems to jive with how it played out.

The 3.31s didn't help, that's for sure, but even my friends car I posted about had a 3.31 gear.... and it would have WAXED the Challenger I had lol.
