For the 8.88 pass it was unported snout and an unported blower. I have since sent it to sdg. We will see what it does in the spring

I’m pretty confident it’s the stock engine, not built trans and stock blower record. But no one will admit it. May be stock engine and stock blower no spray record. I don’t really count nitrious and a built trans as bolt on so to me may be the bolt on record. But no one will admit it. I keep saying find someone faster without a built engine or trans. No one has.

My car’s slow, so I’ll admit it haha. I give dues where they’re deserved, I’ve also not heard of anyone running that fast on a stock engine or unmodified 2.7 (besides pulley). Really speaks to your tuning abilities and know how

Nitrous is an additional power added, built trans should a separate category as well. If you went 8.8 stock engine, stock (unported) blower and stock transmission that’s huge

Trans I guess can go either way. But it seems like in general people count it as bolt on so that's why I did it. As far as nitrous it is no different than adding a Whipple and any class rules you read treat a whipple and nitrious the same. Such as street car take over and hemi shootout.
Nitrious does just bolt on but so does a whipple

Yep, true. But you just got the trans, right? If you don’t mind me asking, what was your mod list for the 8.8 pass?

Here is everything
2.85 upper
10 lower
aad drag kit
driveshaft shop driveshaft
gforce outlaw axles
mid pipes
fic 1650s
JMS dual bap
15 in conversion but I was on 17 in wheels all the way around.
That is it.
DA for the 8.88 was 0 to 200 depending on who you asked or where you looked

My 8.9x pass I even had full interior including the backseat Da was 500 I think

This year addition
Built trans
Ice Box
SDG port and snout
Kooks Long Tubes
May try a 2.75 pulley to see if there is any gains

The long tubes will drop your boost a bit, so I think the 2.75 will be the ticket for you. There’s someone running a 2.5 (stock lower I think) on a 2.7 ihi with the Sdg snout I believe. Anything you can do to make things flow better

I’m not a tuner so I’m not sure what all you can do to ramp boost or timing in up top. Seems like you have the formula for leaving hard cut a good 60’, it’ll be about getting more mph on the top end with more hp

You spraying this season? Maybe just use it as a cooler if you’re worried about the haters (I wouldn’t be). Fast is fast, regardless of how you get there

No spray at this point. Maybe that or some other plans late summer.

just saw the email its time to party!
I knew it was you. I'm happy for you things are working out with the Trans now. With all the great mods you have done, I could never understand Why your Hellcat wasn't faster to begin with.
@Jon-MooredPerformanceLLC will now solve that problem.
What ET are you thinking about racing, once you are dialed in?

Linda :)
