    We tuned out first modified Challenger today. A local Dodge dealership put a set of Arrington heads and cam along with a full exhaust swap. Car sounds awesome. Made great HP but was a little down on torque on the low side of the RPM's. We think the heads may have been overkill for a stock bottom end and the fairly small cam.

    Congratz on the tune DT, Not to bad for Heads/Cam/Exhaust. What type of exhaust did you guys use? Curve looks pretty good, With a few tweaks you could prolly get that familiar dip out from 3800-4500. Nevertheless Right on Bud!

    Thanks for the props. We believe the dip is actually a cam issue and overworked heads (atleast for this cam), my curve with the HHP stage 1 cam, stock heads and exhaust looks way better than this. Down low my car is actually making about 50 rwtq more. There was an issue with the first cam they installed and this was the better of the two. Might be some "experimenting" going on here. LOL
