Get Your Hellcat Right Here!

I can't imagine why anyone would want 707 hp in a Wrangler. But if you find the 6.4 Hemi in the AEV is just meh, then maybe this is for you!

When you absolutely, positively have to get there overnight... :beer:
What a fun toy that would be!
Jeep did a concept JK with the Hellcat as well. Looked really sweet.

A guy in a Challenger Hellcat nailed it right beside me on the freeway. Oh man was that ever fun to watch disappear. Sounds awesome.

I was walking down the street when one rolled by and opened it up. It was truly a beautiful sound. I would LOVE a Hellcat Challenger, the chassis and suspension are built for that sort of power. I would think the Wangler would be a mess with that many ponies, and heaven forbid you have to turn.....

I drove the Hellcat challenger.....IT is FUN....x 10000000000! With the traction control ON you still leave copious amounts of rubber around! With it off its a free for all!

707hp/650lb ft, on marginal D44s and 35s....

Yep, it may leave some rubber... But, I imagine it'll leave more parts on the road, than rubber.

Otherwise...

Why you ask?

Why not?

I'd drive it...

They question is not if you would drive it... question is to where...lol.

Having had a 5.7 and 6.4 Rubicon, the 6.2SC is pointless. The 6.4 made too much power, but fit very nicely. The 5.7 was turning 39" Crawlers through an Atlas twin stick and Pro-rock 80 rear and 60 front, and it was very difficult to finesse over obstacles. Ended up having to drive it like a buggy and throttle through a lot of big rocks. In low, you couldn't do anything but barely touch the throttle or the tires would break traction. I have more fun on 35's with a 3.6.

The 5.7 would be perfect in my Jeep. We do more open road driving, fire roads, towing our camper etc. The 5.7 would be ideal...vvt would keep milage in check....and we would have power on tap when needed!.

I'm with you, the 5.7 would be perfect!

IM working on it. My cousin works in a "scrap yard" and they buy flipped and rigs that have been in accidents. I could probably pull off a 5.7 and 6sp from a newer Ram for fairly cheap. Then get the aev kit and put it in, in about 2 wks of my time. I have 2 other rigs to drive now while my jeep is up getting the hemi. Now to go engine shopping!

Very interesting.
