    Hey everyone, I'm the newest of the new guys. Nice to type to you all, I was referred here by a few members of this site.

    My name is Chris, I own a 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT-8 Canadian 500 edition. So far I have added an Aria Carbon Fiber intake, Corsa Exhaust, 180 Degree thermostat, and a Billet tech catch can. Also had it custom tuned with my predator from a local guy, so I can say I am putting 397 RWHP out running on 91 octane. And for a visual look I had the windows tinted (within legal limits).

    Future things I plan on doing is a Kenne Bell twin screw supercharger, changing out the rear end to the 09 Getrag LSD, new rims, and beefing up the transmission.

    Welcome from a FOUR MAGNUM family in North Carolina!

    Great looking Challenger SRT; what is the 500 edition all about?
    (Never heard of that!)

    When they built the 08's the production run was for 6900 Challengers. 6400 were destined for sale in the USA while the remaining 500 stayed in Canada. The US editions were given individual production numbers on the passenger side dash plaque, while the Canadian ones were badged as a Canadian 500 Limited Edition. Also the Canadian ones got the 500 Grill badge while the US ones had the SRT grill badge. Not sure if the US editions also got the factory build plaque, but the Canadian ones did.

    Thanks, I love her. Something I noticed the other day when I was cleaning her, the production date is the exact same date that my Mother passed away....kinda freaky but awesome all at the same time.

    I would say so! Thanks for the "500" breakdown. I never knew the story behind that either.
