Hello, up for sale is one of my toys.  I am selling it to simply free up some funds and pay off some bills.  It is paid for and I do not have to sell it, but I hate just seeing it sit the majority of the time so I am giving someone the opportunity to enjoy the Durango and get it out there more.

The durango was originally a 2001 SLT 4 wheel drive.  It is now converted to 2 wheel drive with the Hemi swap.  There was a major realestate issue with the 6.1 hemi oil pan and the front differential.  I chose to convert it to 2WD as it does not see the winter weather anymore and the stock trasfer case would of had issues with much 4wd romping.  The 6.1 HEMI has a Comp Cams XFI273 cam and Arrington Engines Push Rods in it.  The exhaust is pretty much open 3" and dumps in front of the rear tires.  It gets pretty obnoxious when out getting on it! Better be careful in areas with noise ordanances!  Neighbors with car alarms set will hate it when you take a romp down the street, LOL!!  On the dyno the durnago is pushing 400hp at the wheels.  It currently has 4.56 gear in it so hope you like buying tires!  It ran 13.7 in the 1/4, even with the big heavy 22" rims!  (See pics for time slips #742.)  I have some much lighter drag radials and rims that will go with if you want them.  There is also a nitrous kit partially installed.  It just needs the nitrous and fuel lines hooked up under the hood and the controller wired and setup.  Currently has a 75 shot jets but I have 100 shot in the kit.  The rest of the system will go with, unless you do not want it.  If you are wanting to show it more than play with it, there is a larger much more of a show piece sub box that can go with too.  It will need re-wired, but will come with the 2 x 15" subs, 2 x 12" subs, and 4 amplifiers that were originally on it.  The prettier sub box is much heavier, but the Durango has load leveling assist to level it back up.  I also have a hitch that goes with.

Some more information on the Durango: It has a beefed up 45RFE trans in it by Bowler Performance.  The 6.1 HEMI is from a wrecked '06 Charger SRT8. '04 5.7 HEMI ram ECU so that it can control the engine and the trans, the 5.7 ECU luckily uses the same type of communication as the '01 Durango, so ALL the gages work properly. Also with the 5.7 truck ECU, the 45RFE became a 5-45RFE, meaning one more forward gear ratio. There is always a check engine light on because I did not hook up all the emissions equipment, but if someone wanted to they could purchase the items and wire them in, but without adding catalytic converters and some more substantial mufflers, it won't pass an emissions test.  I am sure there is someone out there who can remove the emission codes from the ECU as another option, I just never fully researched it.   

Please message me with any questions you may have.

Thanks for viewing, Dan

2013 Dodge Dart gets all Moparized

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

Last year, Chrysler announced it would be offering more than 150 Mopar parts and accessories on the 2013 Dodge Dart, and we got a look at some of these parts firsthand at the Chicago Auto Show. Showing off all the optional parts at once would surely create a gaudy monstrosity, so Chrysler chose to equip this particular Dart GT with just a handful of Mopar goodies, which still gave the car a nice and tasteful custom look that is available straight from the dealership (and with a full warranty, too).
Decked out in a factory color called Header Orange Clear Coat - also a very appropriate show car hue - this car added exterior styling parts such as the vented, carbon fiber hood, the bolt-on front chin spoiler and a matte black decklid spoiler. Looking inside the car, you'd think the red-accented interior is part of the Mopar parts bin, too, but this is actually what the standard Dart GT cabin will look like when it goes on sale.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat revving is sonic bacon

Fri, 23 May 2014

This is the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and we're sure that by now, you know its stats, including over 600 horsepower from its 6.2-liter, supercharged V8. What, pray tell, does that blown engine sound like, though?
At least judging on the sonic strength of this video, it's very, very dirty. Honestly, it sounds unlike anything that's come out of the Chrysler Group in a long time, if ever. It's loud, almost brutally so, with a bark that few road-going V8s can match.
Of course, you should be the final judge here. Take a look and a listen at the two videos below, one of which comes from our friends at Cars.com that provides a nice look under the hood, and then let us know what you think of the Hellcat's singing voice in Comments.

Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car is ready to burn rubber at SEMA [w/video]

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

The Dodge Charger R/T is all set to rocket down the drag strip in NHRA Funny Car competition with a completely redesigned body debuting at this year's SEMA Show. While only the front decal, side scallops and rear logo really signal this racer as a Charger, that doesn't take away from its promise of hitting absolutely ludicrous speeds.
The engineers' biggest tweak to the body was moving the cockpit further back. This created more clearance under the hood, and the change came with added advantage of giving the driver better visibility out of the car. Composites like Kevlar also helped make the one-piece shell even lighter, while not sacrificing strength.
The new design has already undergone extensive time in the wind tunnel and real-world runs to make sure that none of the changes negatively impacted the aerodynamics. With those tests out of the way, the Charger R/T Funny Car will have the first chance to truly prove itself in NHRA competition at the 2015 Winternationals from February 5-9 at Auto Club Raceway in Pomona, CA.
