1100 Horsepower Hellcat Charger. Gotta love working at the dealership... (Mac Haik Dodge Chrysler)

James Powers drops by and give us a ride in his 2016 Dodge Charger Hellcat. Running right now on about 900 to 1,000 horsepower at the wheels, 1,200 at the crank without the bottle, 900 to the rear wheels. Little over 1,200 at the wheels, 1,400 at the crank on the bottle. (by now, I'm sure you guys have read the comments and have seen that I misspoke about the 50 grand going in to the motor. That figure included motor, heads, fuel system, transmission, suspension, labor, and tuning) hopefully I'll get it right on the next video. Thanks for the views y'all!

I've never been so in love with a hellcat

[@thatoneperson..3810]

I felt safe and I'm not even in the car. You can have a powerful car and be responsible with it. James just proved that. He didn't take any chances with other people's lives in traffic. I've seen too many videos with kids driving less powerful cars than this risking everything. Good on you brother!

[@0Tyron]

ThatOnePerson .,. Cars with less hp you have to do more for it to be well "feel fast" higher hp cars you get more to do less in other word speaking from experience

[@HopeForTheBrokenBand]

Love how he said it's all motor.

[@71sc502]

ya like wtf?

[@Jaimehellcat]

Plain Fitness well, we meant it wasn't on the nitrous. Obviously, yes, it's supercharged. But then again it's a factory supercharged motor with a factory supercharger, not an ad on. I'm pretty sure most of you guys know what we meant.

[@HopeForTheBrokenBand]

I know that you were talking up the car that gets beat by naturally aspirated cars with far less liters. We all know which car I'm talking about. Also fairly sure he did a pulleys and overboosts it. OR e85. Either way, not all motor and if it was all motor it'd be getting walked by ford and chevy with equivalent mods.

[@Executiveinvestments-]

dude, do you know what all motor is? Anyone that knows anything about cars and racing knows it mean no NOS. Dam you kids are not that bright.

[@HopeForTheBrokenBand]

THE BOSS he has a supercharger on it.. from the factory.. therefore its never all motor. You "Kids" need to learn to listen to what is being said.

[@kobesn1fan24]

[@robertmiller1984]

Damn that thing SCREAMS!!! Mopar 4 Life!!!!!!!!!!!

[@timmartin4798]

It's a badass car but 50 grand is about 30 to much for just the engine.

[@c6drives180]

Tim Martin he said he also got the whole suspension and frame struts all over the car so it can handle it

[@soxfunny98]

Its suspension, engine, tranny, nitrous system which he only uses rarely etc. It adds up.i guess id he went solid product on the build

[@TheBoostLife]

$50k on the motor for 1200hp? lol

[@jjwrx8]

i know savage street cars in Texas gets these hellcats hooked up with 1500hp for 11k.

[@TheBoostLife]

That's what I'm talking about

[@rollin19]

I call bs,they are all dealers,don't believe these guys,someone wouldn't buy a $60,000 car just to put another $50,000 into it to get another 300 hp. It has a 300 hp shot of NOS...maybe...but that's about it.

[@TheBoostLife]

[@noahlowery1967]

$50,000 in chassis and motor upgrades on the factory tires which suck for 707 hp what a chach

[@ksmizz305]

its not all motor theres for sure a supercharger screamin under that hood

[@BrawndoQC]

Of course, Hellcat are supercharged from factory @ 707hp / 650 torque

[@ksmizz305]

Brawndo yeah but he said its all motor like three times seems like the kinda guy whos got a lot of money to buy sweet cars but doesnt know much about them

[@chrstivn4686]

+K smizz he meant no Nitrous... There is a setup in the back for nitrous but it doesnt have any installed yet. Thats what he meant by all motor. Yes is it supercharged from the factory

[@harrybrown903]

Ur hellcat is bad ass

[@Laprintanddesign]

[@captainohsowavy]

That shit sounds crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mikewalsh7080]

damn that exhaust gives me a chub!

[@mrnine324]

That thing sounds AHHHHHMAZING!!! I'm personally super close to getting my Hellcat Charger, and I hope to get to those similar numbers with mods, however, I'm not THAT rich to put $50k into the engine. So, maybe I'll just stick to a pulley, CAI, cam, and maybe some NOS.

[@hackysmacky]

[@darkmingus]

$50k in the engine? That's bs, come on man... Lol.

[@Jaimehellcat]

Mark D I misspoke, it was 50000 in total, that including suspension transmission and motor. ..and more than a little tuning. from what i understand the tricky part is getting it to drive like a daily driver, and have the horsepower. He's got the dyno sheets, I'll figure out a way to post them.

[@TheLegendaryLoso]

was it worth it?

[@ajstone88]

Yes?

[@Jetlifeual]

Yea, idk if I buy that. Maybe $50K for the whole shebang. Suspension, nitrous, custom parts, blah blah. But even that doesn't make sense. Heads, cam, pulleys, and nitrous would be far less than $50K and make roughly same power.

[@SuperKisses2]

David Delgado

[@Jaimehellcat]

I'm not sure how wide James is going to go with the rear tires, he did mention he's going to have slicks for the next time he takes it to Royal Purple Raceway here in Texas. like I said in the video, it's crazy when a car actually makes it 1000cc sportbike feel slow.

Highly doubt he spent anywhere near 50K on the motor. He is saying he spent 50K for another 450hp over stock? LOL Lucky if he spent 15K.

He said in the video description that he misspoke on the engine and how much the mods cost

What are you using for a camera and stabilizer?

IMVFilms I'm using an ikan gimble and a Galaxy Note 5.

[@IMVFilms]

Thanks, looks good

[@randallmcgrath9345]

This video is pretty old now so I'm sure he upgraded the tires because this car is clearly not fully hooking. At 1100 crank I bet this fucked will need 315s in the rear minimum if not 325s.

[@CWood91]

no way in hell i would spend 50k on the engine alone. Betta have Jet boosters coming out the back for that much money.

[@iAmNyC718]

50K IN MOTOR AND STILL ON STCK TIRES? MAN MINE STOCK AND 1ST THING I CHANGED WAS THEM GOD AWFUL TIRES.... 305/35/20 REAR STOCK UP FRONT... CHANGING FRONT TO 295S

[@cobratrick96]

I don't think he spent $50k on engine alone. I'm pretty sure that cost includes all suspension and back and forth tuning that he also talked about in the video. I could be wrong, but $50k all in seems more likely considering what all is done. Still... gotta wonder what he does for a living so i can jump on his coat tails!! 😂

How tf Is 1200whp add up to 1400 crank. If it's 1200whp it'd be 1280 crank.

[@michaelmcaleer59]

Sean hnizdil your math is waaaayy of...

[@thevalleysjc]

Sean hnizdil depends on motor and if its rwd,awd or fwd but hp loss to wheels can be from 15% all the way to 30%(awd)

[@4head210]

James Mac how? The 2015 mustangs make 435bhp, and 380whp. Sooooo.my math ain't off

[@4head210]

Thevalley Rodriguez it just doesn't add up for the difference to be that big. They just need to put the motor it's self on a dyno, then back in car and see the real difference.

[@thevalleysjc]

Sean hnizdil just like the mustang you mention it has 380whp from 435 thats 55hp loss thats around 15%.very typical but other things factor in how much hp can be lost

[@DoubleDworth]

Why does this dude kinda sound like mini ladd 😂

[@dannysalih7471]

[@tylermcpeak4739]

Umm u can't say it's making 1100hp all motor when the Super charger is still there. Super chargers, turbos, nitrous, ect are all added power therefore it's not all motor. I'm sorry I had to point that out.

[@Jaimehellcat]

Yeah, I know, I pointed out before when we said all motor we meant no nitrous. Really wasn't trying to be misleading. Yeah it's a hellcat, so yeah, it's supercharged. And then again, it's not a vehicle which didn't originally have a supercharger.

My question is why doesnt ford, Chevy and dodge just program/setup these cars to run all precentages of ethanol and 92-93 gas? Why not do it? Win for manfacturer with higher hp numbers plus win for consumer and win for companies that produce the E-gas.

Most ppl don't know that the charger originally was a coupe. But I feel it would seem kinda weird to make it into a coupe again after so many years of being a sedan.

[@HibridaGaming]

[@williamparson7702]

A hellcat with a factory motor running the red key will run low 9s. If you put $ 50,000 in the motor and and still looks like a original take off then you need a better mechanic and somebody needs to beat some since into you for spending that kind of money.
