They don't want to hit 900 because they're be a special edition Hellcat that hits 900 or 950.... and they'll only make 3300 of them.
Yeah good point. Sanity here I come

Despite all the rhetoric and great cars, it is, after all, a business.

I may have missed it, but did they say what the Stage 1 includes?

'19 Hellcat Redeye
Hey since you guys mention it.. maybe they could flash in the On/Off button for the power chiller which is absolutely USELESS in full track mode for Us 2019 RE owners. One thing that still pisses me off.. track suspension is ungodly stiff for the street you hit a little wallop and you’ll almost lose control of the car.. and track steering I never use I prefer sport steering
While it would be nice to use the chiller whenever, I can't honestly say I've been longing for it away from the drag strip...

I don't find track mode to be that much more stiff/harsh with respect to steering and suspension, it has a great effect on the transmission control though IMO.

If they do another limited edition thing I'm done with Dodge. Leave that crap to Chevy and Ford.

I really do suspect this... but I could be wrong. We'll just have to wait and see. But I agree - I've never been a fan of limited edition. Primarily because they're not really; there's always ways around that. Purely marketing tool.

Local dealer here is a shit show. Would not buy car from them now, let alone let them mod.
My dealership won't even take appointments - citing a lack of mechanics. They want you to just drop the car off and they'll call you when they get around to doing the job. It's been this way for months.

What the hell? I remember when most mechanics at dealers were pretty good. But then then management and owners were better too

I personaly don't care if they do a limited edition. If I see something I want, I buy it.

I don’t care what you call giving me 40-50 HP, better yet nearly 100 HP if I am an oil Barron, I want it!

‘I agree if it‘s not ridiculous price gouging I’ll buy it if I like it. But for the most part limited edition usually means more money in dealers pocket and less in ours.

I wonder what dealers I would even trust to do a pulley swap on a Hellcat.

This is exactly my problem.

How does this compare to the prices that the “tuner shops” are charging? I have to imagine the dealer will actually be doing it for less.

Even if the cost is higher than the local shop Dodgers draw is it you preserve the warranty

Subscribed! I can see myself getting a stage 1 kit at least. I can stay on pump gas and have the tune all RE's should have had all along.... I'd still need to be assured the entire factory warranty remains intact. - Which is another year for me.

That 5° spark advance is gonna be on race gas, so make sure you account for that. At least 100 octane I'm guessing and they'll probably somehow enable the HO mode the Demon has as a safety net.
