Local dodge dealer has a used SCAT PACK Charger and a used Hellcat Challenger. I think those SP's are going to be the rare mopar in 30 years, I couldn't find one new or used to look at a few years ago.

just benched my i5-3570K after bumping it up some more. loo9k at the multi thread rank vs a 4790K. hehe, just squeeked past, and even beat the 6600. I'm ready to move to a 7700 so I figured I'll push it to its limits, if it poops out oh well.

The lesson learned is that you guys know more about BMW's than you let on!

BMW does some cool stuff. The new engine in the 535D for example has 4 turbos! Hopefully they never fail lol.

They'll be very rare. Dodge has already announced that the new Demon model will be the last high performance production V8 they ever produce. I think some good cars to buy used with low miles will be Hellcat, Demon, 2008-2010 Vipers, Z28, ZL1, GT500 (13-14). Another good car to buy now would be a low mile NSX as they are starting to appreciate.

Well, then, Dodge will die. Fiat doesn't understand the US market at ALL if they think dumping V8s will do Dodge any good.

I couldn't believe what my eyes were reading. Essentially they said the Demon is our last hooray, enjoy V6 turbos. The thing I don't understand is FCA in the states doesn't have any v6 turbos. So what the hell are they going to use, some stuff from Fiat? Ford at least has the ecoboost. But then again Ford also came out an said the Mustang will always have a V8 option.

Yeah, Italian Turbos. Sure those will be the pillar of reliability.

ooo. My unvalidated results are single 1312 and multi 7920. I probably could bump those up a couple points if I had closed everything running. Too lazy to tweak settings to go past my 98% stable 4558mhz as well. If I can even go past that on air.

My 2010 Genesis coup that I had would easily outrun the challenger rts in the family. The V6s and 4clys may sound like hell to most gear heads but the performance is there. Come to think of it my wife's 01 Acura intagra type r will run mid 14s, right with the muscle car times of the early 70s.

[Jsdirt]

Nobody left their cars stock then, though. Would take you 3 hours and a six pack to have heads, intake, cam, and an hour of tuning completed - high 12's ... if only you could get traction.

[KARNUT]

That's true I was one of those, my 74 barracuda started as a stripper 318 3 speed stick for 2900$. In one weekend 340 heads, headers, high rise, holly, 4 speed. All out of a salvaged yard. Then we would put on high jacker air shocks stuff n-50- 14s Mickey Tomson tires on it off to atco dragstrip in New Jersey or English town. One on many cars went through that transformation.

I haven't over clocked a CPU since my q6600. I think the next desktop I build I'll sit down and actually overclock the CPU. You guys running under water or air cooling?

I run air. Too lazy to run a custom loop and even though AIOs are reliable now, I still don't trust them. Mostly due to me only blowing out my case once or twice a year instead of every couple months. I played around with OC my graphics card but it wasn't worth the effort.

Decided on the parts for my AR Build. I am going a 20" barrel with a fixed stock. Lancer Carbon fiber stock and hand guard. Probably will have the receivers Cerakoted a dark red.

Red? That's an interesting color for a gun. Have any examples of the color?
