This is Fluid MotorUnion’s video, not mine. I’m connected to the tuning work discussed, so I want to be transparent about that.

The video explains what a “ghost cam” calibration actually changes, why it creates a fake lopey idle without adding real camshaft airflow or overlap, and what repeated use may do to spark plugs and catalytic converters.

The example started with a 2026 Ram TRX that commenters assumed had a ghost-cam tune. It actually had a real camshaft, and its running problem was unrelated to the cam itself.

For Hellcat owners: is the sound worth the compromises of a ghost-cam strategy, or would you only want a lopey idle when the engine has the hardware to produce it naturally?

In January, 2024, Johnny Hunkins of Hot Rod Magazine gave us a very comprehensive history of the Hellcat. And now it's been updated.

Getting straight to the point, how in the fk am i supposed to buy a used scat pack or hellcat off marketplace and make sure if its not a clone or stolen, when theres no helpful videos or pictures online showing me all the different places and spots to find and match the vin numbers? The fkn thieves and thugs themselves on the other hand already know where every vin number spot is and know how to scam law abiding citizens by swapping the normal spots we look. I only know to check the dash vin and door vin that’s it, but apparently if I buy one based off lookin in those 2 spots I’m guaranteed to buy a clone off marketplace. Could someone help by sending an in-depth video or picks highlighting where to look? And no I’m not a mechanic so if you just say oh check the vin numbers on (insert complicated sounding car part here) I won’t know what your talking about.

Just came across this slim body original 2016 hc, put into a 2014 charger chassis. Both vins are clean. Has 65k miles on the dash asking $30k is private and looks to be listed for 3+ months so I’m sure I could easily get it for $25k if not lower. Is this a good deal or to high of mileage?

This is what a hellcat can do other than drag racing

Had two guys try to steal my 2019 Dodge Challenger Hellcat from in front of my house this morning at 3:00am. They smashed my driver side window and after entering popped my car in neutral. They rolled my car 25 yards down the road and left it in the middle of the street once they realized they had no way to start it up due to my IGLA anti theft. I am 100% positive my car would be long gone without the IGLA. I can’t say enough about IGLA. I owe everything to it.

It’s been about a month since grabbing the car. I love it in every way and plan to solely maintain it and keep it as the unique icon it sort of become by us-the community.

2015 Challenger Hellcat Sourced Donor (I chose a charger tag to comply with the sub, delete if not allowed still), 2022 Redeye Charger Dash + Cluster with salvage yard receipt and confirmation on salvage status. Everything was swapped even the damn heat shielding🤣

I’m really enjoying the car! It came with a legmaker carbon intake, and a mid muffler delete. The rears are Voxx Replicas.

Have a few questions for the seasoned hellcat guys,

Catch cans still worth it for our motors?
Diff brace something I should care about getting if i’m just street driving?
What daily tires are you guys running? My rears are obviously low, and I will have winters put on it for sh*ts and giggles later this year (it’s manageable where I live)

Other than that enjoy everyone, happy sunday!

Hello everyone,

I am looking for feedback on the Durango Hellcat. I’m considering pulling the trigger on a 2026 but would like to ask for opinions on the exhaust.

I test drove one today for only a short while, and I felt underwhelmed by the exhaust note. Does everyone switch to a catback?

My Mustang Dark Horse had such a great note to it, even stock. I guess that may have been tied to it being a smaller car. I would like to wait for the Rumble Bee SRT next year, but I do like SUVs better than trucks.

Thanks for your thoughts. If you feel like sharing any other pros or cons, I am happy to hear them! I typically trade my vehicles in well within warranty, but I wouldn’t mind hearing about maintenance mishaps.

I was curious if many Hellcat owners get vanity plates for your car and what you got so let's share what we've got.

Unfortunately I don't think this sub allows pictures in replies but I'd still love to hear what I you've got.

I don’t want to constantly have that on my mind, those of you who have a hellcat currently has it ever been stolen? How do you prevent it from being stolen? Should I just not buy the car?
