I think the gearing and size "wind resistance" is also a bigger obstacle than getting the right mods for 175. But I guess anything is possible. Just my .2 cents. aplatero1984 07-11-2007, 06:00 PM I am a current owner of a 300C SRT-8 but now I'm planning to get a GC SRT-8 my biggest issue is how to get the top speed up to 175m/h from what I have read here and what mods do I have to get...............................Thanks in advance supercharger? turbo? the more money you have the faster you can go!!!!

Just my .2 cents. supercharger? turbo? the more money you have the faster you can go!!!! I would figure if the GC maxes out at 165 in 5th gear, forced induction won't help any. All that will do is get you to top speed faster. Changing the gear ratio would be the only thing I would figure to up the total MPH. That or serious weight reduction. shodanusmc 07-12-2007, 08:32 AM Call John Hennessy....for a few dollars, he will get you to 175 easy. Question, where will you run it at 175?

Are you serious? :eek: If so, you would be the first person I have seen in a very long time to suggest someone actually take a vehicle to Hennessey. a-kon 07-12-2007, 11:11 AM Call John Hennessy....for a few dollars, he will get you to 175 easy. Question, where will you run it at 175? Undergroundracing, RSI, or Hefner would be a much better choice. So far all the srt-8 turbo's are rear mount singles, underground is working on a front mount twin. Whenever I pull the trigger I definitely plan on throwing some turbo's on it. Superchargers are cool, but turbo's are better. | ||
