Ohhhh man, a Go Green Hellcat? Damn!

Congratulations! My all time favorite modern muscle car ever! Dodge really nailed the styling on those cars.

Welcome to the club! Got mine as a 50th birthday present to myself in 2015. Don't put too much faith in that traction control, its setup to be very hands-off - and you can still get plenty sideways, especially in the rain.

Wont be touching the factory original engine for any mods.

There is no shortage of gen III Hemi stuff. I am considering my options engine wise. A 426ci (REAL HEMI) is easily done in all aluminum. Mopar has a few aluminum blocks available and Thitek has a very nice aftermarket head. The Mopar Apache head is pretty good too. A 426 with a Whipple 4.5L twin screw supercharger sitting on a set of worked Thitek's would be a nice bolt right in 1200HP combo.

Right now I am looking into a very nice carbon fiber hood. I think that would look awesome on the green. Also a 3.09 rear diff and one piece aluminum driveshaft.
Stainless works has a complete 304 exhaust system. 1.875" primaries, hi-flow cats and 3" exhaust out the back.
All removed factory parts to be properly stored inside.

Very nice! I'm getting ready to turn my 2015 B5 Blue V6 into a Scat Pack 392 this summer.
Be safe in that Green Monster...

Nice. I cant remember my 50th present. You likely will never forget yours.

I didn't get a lot of seat time this weekend because of the rain, and I work in San Diego, so I will be gone til next Friday late. Maybe the weather will improve a little next weekend.

You'll get more seat time if you drive it back and forth between Mesa to San Diego
