2006 Dodge Magnum SRT8

I am the second owner of the vehicle and purchased it approximately one year ago.  I am selling due to my fianc? expecting a baby and she doesn't feel safe with me driving a baby around in a 580HP Magnum (even though it is a station wagon). 

The original owner invested approximately $20k (just in parts, not install) in to the motor alone.  The car was run at the track on 4-5 different occasions by the previous owner (regrettably none by me) with a best time of 11.57 at 122MPH on drag radials.  I do not have the time slip for it but have a video of it running an 11.88 after the supercharger install (bad video but you can see the time and that it beats a Corvette).

Modifications:

  • Indy CNC cylinder head package with Comp Cams, beehive springs, and titanium retainers
  • Indy CNC port match intake plenum
  • Comp Cam XE 268 Camshaft
  • Install heads and cam
  • SuperMaxx Stainless long tube headers
  • JBA cat back exhaust
  • 60lb. fuel injectors
  • Billet high flow fuel rails
  • Modern-muscle Modified Fuel Bucket with 2 Walbro 255 LPH high output fuel Pumps
  • Vortech V-3 intercooled supercharger kit
  • Pillar pod with boost and boost gauges
  • 9.5 PSI Vortech pulley
  • Alkycontrol.com progressive methanol kit with install and tune


The car was garage kept by myself and the previous owner.  The paint and interior are as good as you will find for a 2006.  I just spent $800 on replacing all four rotors and brake pads as well as changing the supercharger oil and engine oil.  Engine oil has been changed every 3500 miles and the supercharger every 7000 miles. 

I drove the car 40-60 miles per week and never had an issue with it.  It can be used as a daily driver but I wouldn't recommend it with the drag radials as they are horrible in the rain.  The car is a blast to drive and will turn heads everywhere.  Nobody expects the sound it makes to be coming from a station wagon.  I can't pull in to a gas station without someone stopping to ask questions about it (FYI still gets 12-13MPG around town and 16-17MPG highway).  I have additional pictures and sound clips if needed.  I can text or email them if you provide your information. 

It definitely hurts selling the car, but it definitely will not hurt me as much as it did the previous owner.  Everything he did the vehicle is top notch and done by professionals.  All receipts that were given to me are still in the center console where they were left by the previous owner. 

If you have any questions please feel free to ask.  I work midnights so my response may be a little delayed.

Buyer is responsible for pick-up but I am willing to help.


**Minor swirl marks on driver' side roof due to previous owner have satellite radio (little larger than a quarter).  Steering wheel has minor wear, easily covered with steering wheel cover (I leave it as is as its very minor).  Nitto Drag Radials will need replacing within the next 1500 miles or so.**

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.

Chrysler almost smothered the Hellcat before it lived

Thu, 06 Nov 2014

Chrysler's 6.2-liter supercharged Hellcat V8 was an absolute sensation from the very moment it was announced, and honestly, how could it not have been? Packing 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, its numbers immediately put every other production muscle car (and many supercars) to shame. Plus, we soon learned that would be wrapped in a package retailing for around $60,000 - a pittance compared to other vehicles offering similar grunt. However, the Hellcat almost never got the chance to rumble under the hood of the Challenger and Charger.
The Hellcat was initially proposed back in 2011, back when Fiat was deciding its future strategy for Chrysler Group, according to Automotive News. At the time, the company was just emerging from its bankruptcy doldrums, and an ultra-high-performance V8 wasn't exactly a must-have item. The program didn't move forward. However, SRT engineers kept fighting, according to AN, and four months later, they received the green light to pull the project off the shelf and continue developing the Hellcat. The muscle car world is certainly better for that decision.
The work of those engineers focused on taking Chrysler's standard 6.2-liter V8 and making it reliably handle all of the extra power from the supercharger. "It came down to micron levels of changes in the crank to be able to withstand the pressures of the engine," said Chris Cowland, director of advanced and SRT powertrain, to Automotive News. The changes amounted to switching out about 91 percent of the parts to make the Hellcat, including some quite minuscule alterations. For example, the washer holding the supercharger pulley is embedded with industrial diamonds to keep it from slipping.

Stellantis and Foxconn's new joint venture will focus on connectivity

Wed, May 19 2021

MILAN — Carmaker Stellantis and TaiwanÂ’s Foxconn announced plans to develop a jointly operated automotive supplier focusing on technology to make vehicles more connected, including artificial intelligence-based applications and 5G communications. Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares said the services that will be developed through the tie-up “will mark the next great evolution of our industry,” alongside fully electrified and hybrid powertrains. The deal brings together Stellantis, the worldÂ’s 4th-largest automaker formed this year by the merger of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA Peugeot, and Foxconn, a major supplier of iPhones. The companies said the venture would focus on such services as infotainment, the integration of telecommunications and computer systems, artificial intelligence-based applications, 5G communications, e-commerce channels and smart cockpit integration. The companies announced a non-binding memorandum of understanding to form a 50-50 joint venture called Mobile Drive, which will be based in the Netherlands and function as an automotive supplier also to other carmakers. The new venture will combine advanced consumer electronics, Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) to create new services “that will exceed customer expectations,” the companies said in a release. “Customers today and, in the future, demand and expect ever-increasing software-driven and creative solutions to connect the drivers and passengers with the vehicle inside and out,Â’Â’ Foxconn Chairman Young Liu.
