Dodge is skirting the law by including a secondary PCM. The car is not EPA certified with 840hp "race only tune." It clearly says in the document several times for track use only. Also its clear that the car is never to be driven on the street with front shinnies.

including "mods in a box" and a bunch of wavers is just FCAs way of exploiting legal loops holes. No other manufacturer in history as ever attempted such shenanigans.
It is OEM though.

Another fun fact. The Demon is speed limited to 168 MPH with stock PCM.
From the 2018 Demon Supplement.

NOTE:
• This vehicle is speed limited to 168 mph (270 km/h) based on the factory tire speed rating.

• The Demon Crate Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is not equipped with a speed limiter. This will allow the vehicle to exceed the tires’ speed rating of 168 mph (270 km/h). This could adversely affect the safety and handling of the vehicle. It is the customer’s responsibility to equip the vehicle with the
correct speed rated tires for their use above a speed rating of 168 mph (270 km/h).

"Dodge offers a fully OEM developed bolt on drag strip performance package
as an aftermarket option for your Dodge Challenger SRT Demon."

You could not buy a Demon from the dealer with the Demon Crate kit installed. It is an aftermarket kit that you had to order from Dodge after you took deliver of the car and it was sent to your home.

"FCA US LLC does not authorize the installation or use of any part noted as “Track-Use” on any new vehicle prior to its first retail sale."

"This aftermarket kit is only available to new Challenger SRT Demon customers and can be purchased by calling the SRT Concierge line at 800-998-1110 . For your convenience, the aftermarket kit will be delivered to your home and supports your factory vehicle warranty when installed by an authorized dealer."

It's like ordering a 2012 GT500 and then ordering a Ford Performance 750 HP SC kit and then claiming your car is stock because Ford sold the fully OEM developed bolt on performance package as an aftermarket option.

So are you saying it’s not a fair race if I have 100 octane mode going?

Also Dodge has to install all of the Demon Crate parts or your warranty is voided. Seems pretty OEM to me.

All I am hearing is a bunch of excuses.

Demon Kills Venom. Get ready!

Is my Demon not stock because I put 100 Octane fuel made by SUNOCO? Hey, what's more? 625 lb ft of torque or 770? Been trying to figure this out all day.

It would be if you are still running the stock PCM and not the one from the crate.

sounds like someone is scared.. you can run whatever fuel you want. but now the truth is the crate stuff, is stated as aftermarket addition, and NOT to be installed until after the 1st retail sale, in addition to the other literature that states it is NOT street legal.. so the balloon as has popped. Race me in whatever "stock" configuration you want. we both you knowr going to bitch out, as you have already came up with enough excuses

Dude what the F are you talking about? Scared? Why the F would I not run my Demon they way Dodge INTENDED it to be run, with 100 octane and full power? If it's not STREET LEGAL, the how the hell have I been driving it on the street, passed emissions, passed inspection, for almost 2 years now? I'm gonna smoke your ass it's not even funny.

You are scared that’s why you won’t run, that’s why you complain, it’s 2 hours away....
If dodge intended to run 100oct and dodge “Aftermarket” options it would have come that way from the factory before the sale, not an addition purchase only after you purchase the vehicle.
Damn the truth hurts!!
