I can't wait to see the actual wheel number when a owner dyno's it. I have a feeling it's over rated.

It's an eighth mile run... throwing more horsepower at a car that already has issues applying torque from a dig isn't going to make a big difference. The Hellcat won't have enough time to stretch its legs and actually use its power to any useful effect.

Using that as some kind of means to evaluate engine output is ridiculous. The thing is a porker and under-rubbered. Its mediocre launching numbers are not a sign of overrated power specs.
