The hellcat and demon are pretty close (57rwhp). I would think it would be easier to reach stock demon numbers with the hellcat, rather than pay 15-20k more for the demon.
Owner dynos his Demon with the pcm

Funny all the HEMI guys run here to defend the car. Let the ford guys vent already.
True but there’s another one that just dyno’d within a couple hp as well. Both dynojets but different shops on different days. Im not ready just yet to say it’s underrated but if this trend continues it’ll be hard to deny. Lots of ppl in the hemi community thought 840bhp wasn’t enough to be hitting 9.65, especially with a trap of a 140mph. Like i said a true 840bhp would net around 715rwhp. Hellcats with that power aren’t hitting 140mph. Time will tell but I wouldn’t be shocked one bit if the trend continues.
Man if ford made this car it would be the second coming of Christ around here.
I would love to see the Demon up against a modded '13/'14 Shelby GT500 on E85. The Demon on the race gas pcm and race gas + VS octane.
Too bad one would be manual and one would be automatic though.

I thought it was making more for some reason than the 840 advertised as stock? My bad then. Its a wicked car no doubt.
From what I have seen, stock Hellcats can put down anywhere from 640 to 670 rwhp.
If stock Demons are putting down 750-780 rwhp (with race PCM), that is an increase of 110 rwhp.
Plus with a Demon, your getting all the powertrain upgrades to handle the additional power with a warranty. So for some, $15-20K is worth it.
None. It is impressive indeed. You have to give kudos to FCA for thinking this and actually playing it out.
You should hear the clowns on the 6th gen Mustang forum. They call it a "one trick pony". That shit pisses me off. Jealous much? (Besides,........isn't the GT350/GT350R car a "one trick pony"??!?! All I ever used to read about was,....it's not made for the drag strip, it's made for the track.)
Run your stock Mustang GT against a stock Demon on the drag strip. LOLZ
I imagine the stock Demon would do pretty good against a stock Mustang GT on the track as well. Just my hunch.
I'm a Mopar guy. I own a Mustang. I don't plan to own any other Ford, unless it's a Mustang.

Jack of all trades, master of none. Id like to have both a gt350R and a red Demon, i just have no use for the Demon, or money for both
Still about .4 of a second off of what Dodge says it will run though..
its like people also forget about the trans brake, equivalent of the killer chiller etc... hot lap the Demon and a modded HC at a drag strip and see how that works out. RWHP isnt the whole damned story here
HA HAAAAAAAAAAAA
You said it man! I wouldn't mind a 2018 GT350R in Lightning Blue with black stripe and red outline. But, I would have to either supercharge it or add the twins. More likely the twins, but that's HUGE money. lol
Demon is a possessed stock factory machine. If you hate on it...your not really a car guy in the 1st place.
More stock Demon dyno numbers from Ghostcat over on Hellcat.org:

Its gotta be jealously. Go blow your motor or trans in the gt350R at the track and see how many dealers will tell you thats gonna cost out of your own pocket.
+1000
Its absolutely hilarious to watch these kinda threads post 13-14.

Actually considering that was shitty irwindale, where the track prep was so bad the owner had to load the trunk with over 100lbs of junk in attempt to get better traction, and the da was no where near as good as Dodges record run, annnnd there has literally only been two guy to actually run the race pcm at the track so far id say they’re off to a great start. Give em some time.
