Both are stock. Advertised quarter mile times are 13.3 for the 2008 SRT8 and 14.5 for my 93 Ty. What mods would I have to do to beat the SRT8 in the quarter mile?

Re: My Ty vs. SRT8

Well I know many in the past have run 12.7 on just a ATR chip and alchy. Today I would say turbo tweak 3bar and some race gas pushing 17 to 20 psi On a forge wastegate. But will still be close and will depend on driver reflexes and launch. Most likely u will need 5 psi or 8 to have a chance. And I do know because I have SRT 8 as well Jeep that is.

So an ATR chip and meth injection would/could get 12 sec. timeslip? How much boost?

I wouldn't run an outdated ATR chip. A good running Typhoon should run high 13's if running 100%.

Really need to be able to beat his Challenger. He told me no way in hell my truck could beat his big bad hemi.....Wanting to do it on about $1000-$1500. My thoughts are 3" Downpipe, Batmowheel turbo impeller upgrade, and turbo tweaks chip. Would that be enough for the W?

Re: My Ty vs. SRT8

it would be close, nos would be cheapest route, really. if it was 1/8 mile I would say yes, but 1/4 he is gonna hawk you down unless he spins and you get out there far enough.

Buy a scan tool, get your truck running 100% and race him 0-60. Or if you want a little extra cushion, add a turbo tweak chip and race him 0-60 or 1/8. the challenger is going to a need a full 1/4 to reel you in on the top end.

Step one... Don't take beaner76s advice.

Step two... Race him now, find out how you do.

There is no way he will keep up with a boost launch unless he's got drag radials/slicks and a manual. You can hope he does a huge burnout and just lets out of it once you get out in front of him. If you guys go from a roll or go longer than a 1/4 mile he will probably come around you.

As far as cheap mods, race gas, 3barMAP, AFPR, and who ever is still burning chips, turbo tweak??? If and only if your truck is running good already with little to no knock.

hey for cheap power you cant beat it. I didn't say throw a 400 shot fogger on it. these trucks don't exactly have a good 60ft stock. only good thing is he knows he wont spin. if the srt8 is a half way good driver ,all he has to do is keep up in the 60ft or even be behind just a little in the 60ft and it will be all over. he can spend 1500 and he will just maybe have a shot if srt8 is a bad driver or get a wet 100 shot for around 500 dollars and put on his 100% stock truck and yank so far out on him it will be over off the line. remember he said he wants to beat this guy half way cheap.
