What do you think a 'freak' factory Charger will be able to run stock?

I did only make one pass with the Charger. I was there with my SRT-4 that night with 5 other SRT-4's so I spent most of my time with that car. To address your questions; I agree 60'ft time blows. Your average 60' was 2.2458 while mine was 2.3998. I did NOT build on the converter just punched it. I paid attention to the launch and did not get any noticable wheel spin off the line. I consider my pass very average for the way I describe it. Before I got the car I voted in the 'How fast will the Charger run' poll that the car would run 14.1 - 14.5 Knowing what I know now the car is CLEARLY in the 14.6 - 15.0 catagory. Do you agree with me?
I think the average will fall between 14.3-14.6 . I know I lost some time shifting on the one run I got times for, but I doubt it was more than a tenth.
RadarmagneT's car only has 4500 miles on it. I was using regular fuel and the weather was not good for fast times. I don't know if gas will make a difference but it would not hurt.

I did not experience any wheel spin with the charger. Based on power braking to dry the tires after trying to miss the water box (which was imposable), I had to be vary close to spinning but I did not feel any.

Well I will have more times this weekend and they will be better than the one pass I made this last weekend. Anyway let’s do a little comparison.
Radguy - SRT4 ME 2004 - Maneval69
60'- 2.2348 - 2.3998 - 2.1886
330'-6.1119 - 6.5618 - 6.2096
1/8 -9.3731@77.33 - 9.9163@74.27 - 9.4755@75.36

So lets see I was 0.0977 faster in the 330' than Maneval69 and 0.4499 faster than SRT4ME2004. Then in the 1/8 I was 0.1024 faster than Maneval69 and 0.5432 faster than SRT4ME2004. So if my charger continued at the same pace through the 1/4 (i.e., I take the difference between the 330' and 1/8 ets then add it to the difference at the 1/8 and subtract the difference from you 1/4 ets) should have yielded me a 14.5 in the 1/4. Now consider my 60' (which I think is bad) I see no problem in picking up another 3 tenths at a minimum in the 1/4. Most likely more as I get used to running the car and the motor gets broken in.
The more I read this, the more I feel it may make absolutely no since to anyone but me. Guess I will shut up now.
 
#104 · (Edited)
It makes sense to me. Looking at the time you made up between 60' and 330', I would thing your 1/4 would have been around 14.4 even with that 60' time.
I didn't notice until now how much better your 1/8 trap speed and how much you made up in 330'.
Your times inspire some confidence in an as advertised 14.2.

I think with some more miles on the car and a little more seat time high 13's might be obtainable in stock form. I am going to run at my local 1000' track this weekend and then go to Tulsa in two weeks for some 1/4 times. No matter what it runs, I like the Charger.

Amen!

The only problem with getting in the 13's is the launch. I just don't see how we will get under the 2 second 60' mark with out programmer help.

If track prep is good this weekend it will be my mission to get at least one 1.9 60'. I may have to lower the tire pressure down to 24-26 psi and stage real shallow but I feel it can be done.

I had this info, thought someone might like it. As far as i know all cars are stock, that means stock tires. I am sure most times would be much better if they had the tires we have today.

shoot, half those cars were basically stripped down factory racers.....and they only had ***whisper*** two doors :wink:

speaking of tires, you would be suprised how quick the f.a.s.t. (factory appearing, stock tire) cars are running on bias-ply tires......60fters into the 1.6s...greg gessler's gsx had one that series a few years in a row(11.03 in factory appearing car), but it looks like this year a couple aluminum engine/fiberglass body cars are into the tens.....

I have a set of the Hoosier quick time DOT's at the moment on my old charger. 295 60 15's . They didnt hook up as well as i hoped. last run i made at the track , It was a few years back but i boiled the hides off them , 2.3 60 foot,running 15 pounds of pressure. But no one ever said i was light off the line with the pedal.

The next go around i think i try the M & H street slicks

Now if i put on those wonderful old red lines r78's or what ever they where. I can smoke them from a 25 mph roll.

I agree that a high stall converter would improve the launch. I don't think you'll get close to 1/2 second gain. Probably more like 1/4 second.
Tires would have to be upgraded as well. Does anyone know what the stock stall is?
A few of you mentioned high stall torque converters, Rezlo who is known on the stratus forums (both 1g & 2g) and the eclipse/dsm forums sells high stall torque converters at a very good price. He will give the first couple people a really good discount (i think he sells them at cost) if you help him spread the word and write a product review on the board. He has one of these in his car, check out his website for more info www.rezlo.com or email him at ian@rezlo.com

DCX seems real funny about this transmission. I can find no information on the stock stall and nothing on the AMG torque converter (which locks up in all forward gears).
As I said before increasing the stall would help the launch tremendously but the cost of development is going to be extremely high. Keep in mind this is a Mercedes trans. The only place that has improvement parts is AMG and AMG will only sell replacement parts based on VIN numbers.

If your guy has a line on a torque converter that will fit these transmissions and can either work with the stock TCM program or has TCM reprogramming equipment, he?s sitting on a GOLD Mine.

It would definitely help if you knew the stock stall. It's a shame they're making it so difficult to modify these cars, I will speak with him and get back to you. He'll probably need time to do some research but maybe he can get around it.

High stall torque converters, big sticky tires. I have not had a close look at the underside of the new charger. One thing you better look close at is can this trans. (that no one can get the stall speed even) handle the additional shock for any amout of time. Torque box's on the rear suspention , i doubt there stong enough , and last the rear end. All that new found power has to go someplace. As someone who as snapped 2 rear yokes in half at launch, and lost a driveshaft at 115 MPH. Just a warning is all

The limits of the drive train has been discussed with much vigor.
A lot feel the LX drive train is a good as the AMG drive trains after all they are the same design. Some amg cars with this design are over 500 HP.
I feel the AMG parts are manufactured with better components/materials and therefore stronger.
The bottom line is we will not know until we start breaking things.
I am not worried about 22-2500 stall with a stock engine. I?m sure it will shorten the life of the transmission (due to heat) but not break anything. I am not sure what if any extra shock this would cause to the trans. The engine holds a flat torque curve from 2000-3000 then increases quickly. (I have only seen one dyno that started at 2000rpm)
I think the supercharged cars will give us a good idea of what these things will take.

There is no more weak parts on this car than any other. If I break it I will fix it. My last car was a subaru foresterXT. I made over 200 low 13 second passes in it. Did I break some things? Yes I did. Did I repair them out of my own pocked? Yes I did. Will the charger be any different? No. I do miss leaving the line at 5000 rpm.

Oh, I know the old rubber sucked, but how about new Bias plys, like Coker sells? I'm sure they use new rubber formulations.
this is in the rules for f.a.s.t. racing:

Original equipment reproduction bias-ply tires only. No soft compound tires of any kind are allowed. Retread tires are not allowed.
it will be interesting to see how much the charger's stock irs will take once stall/gears/tires are added.....

I am the converter guy,

Ive done a few Merc converters, they are a bit tricky but not to much of a prob, most of the later mopars also use all forward lock up btw, isnt a problem, normaly a mild increase will let the trans ecu do its job pretty well and you only realy notice the added stall at 1/2 to W/O throttle,

Is there anyone here that has toasted a trans or destroyed their SRT8 that could either send me some exact mesurments and pics or better yet a converter out of one?

If not you are welcome to send me your unit with a return lable in the box and ill stall it to anything up to 2400rpm for $350 which includes full ballancing and furnace braizing, upgraded needel bearings, strengthed sprag and so on, if you want higher than 2400rpm youll need to look into have the ECU changed a bit and I charge $10 more per 100rpm higher than 2400 you go. If you want a to do it like this I will only require it for 2 days my side so youll get it back FAST,,, all units garanteed for 12 months

My converters now power most of the most powerful 604's and mitsu 3G V6 turbo and charged eclipses in the country not to mention many others, I have alot more info on my site www.rezlo.com

If you want more info please email me ian@rezlo.com and ill be happy to help
