Default New Drag Paks

Well is there any truth to the rumors that Ma Mopar will be building a twin-turbo Drag Pak model very soon?

I heard they were going with a Pratt & Whitney Jet engine. I wonder if they will let me upgrade my 2010?

Look for the package next year in the Mopar Performance catalog...Stage 1 - Stage 2 - Stage 3 versions...ask your local dealership or zone rep to contact Chrysler to see if these packages will bee available in your area...they still have to build 50 units to be excepted...even though only a few have been built privately.

I heard a rumor that I started that the new DP was going to be the new Dart with the V10 and a supercharger. The front seats are deleted and the steering column extended to make room for the engine.

Yeah that's funny, but some of you aren't taking this serious, I guess everyone here is happy with the brand x companies and their power adders beating up on the naturally aspirated race cars...oh well, you all can continue to whine about it in the other threads posted on here, instead of trying to do something about it, or maybe try going with the flow, ie: joining them.

That's because that one is a regular V-8 Hemi Challenger SRT model that's been converted, your comparing it to the 2011 V-10 Drag Pak Challenger...Now imagine if they dropped something like "this" into a new Drag Pak Challenger.



or this...

Yeah some of those imports are fast & light, ie: big turbo's & tube chassis but they're still pretty impressive though...Maybe Chrysler will build a new Drag Pak Challenger with a turbo set-up and maybe some aluminum or carbon fiber Challenger body panels to lighten the car up even more.
