regarding performance ...

Nice. Good video. Later RJD

Thnx!

I make it a point in my life to seek truth and provide evidence for anything/everything I believe.
And part of that involves exposing all of the automotive internet myths that clog the airways.
I meet them head on, and refute them without prejudice.
I actually feel sorry for those who fall prey to them.
 
That doesn’t really confirm anything…

Actually, it confirms exactly and precisely everything every single thing I've been saying.

In closing my discussion with you, I also hope you enjoy your car.
But I want you (and everybody else) to enjoy it in Truth.
But for some reason, you don't want to embrace that.
For me, it is all I seek.
 
The facts:

Performance Pages estimates crank horsepower the exact same way on every 2026 Charger Sixpack Scat Pack running the same version

Multiple folks on here have mentioned in early miles the max they are seeing PP register is 390-420hp from performance pages (including in this very thread)

The car is rated by the manufacturer to create 550hp peak at the crank

Multiple folks have confirmed they are seeing greater than 500hp register on PP after they reach higher mileage than the initial manufacturer break-in

Can’t really get more Truth than that ✌️
 
The Facts:

Fact:
You seem to embrace the rejection of concrete data

Fact: I've graciously supplied irrefutable data to you in great abundance

Fact: A large part of what people allegedly "report" on the internet is fake news

Fact: Even Dodge chose to use vehicles with less than 1,000 miles on them when showcasing the Six Pack's power/speed

Fact: Life taught me when to share information, and when that sharing of info has degraded to the point where any further discussion lacks merit

0-60 on an AWD launch-control car is dominated by traction and low-end torque, not peak horsepower. The Sixpack makes near 100% of peak torque at just 2,500 rpm, so even a power-capped car (390-420hp but full torque) could launch almost identically to a fully unlocked one, because the limiting factor off the line is tire grip, not what’s happening up at redline. Getting close to the OEM 0-60 number doesn’t really test whether the top-end power is there.

Just saying… the 1/8 mile isn’t really gonna test this well with that caveat, not that timed runs are a great proxy for repeated sensor data testing to begin with.

Anything you provided is far from concrete data with respect to peak horsepower and doesn’t begin to explain your HP at crank discrepancy from the sensors being 130 below OEM spec.

What can easily be explained is your time being near OEM quoted and not actually having peak power.
