Thank you for your support on the channel.

Definitely the most informative scatpack channel that I’ve found so far. I love the content
Thank you my friend.. much appreciated
Racer X, if the throttle body is changed, would a tune be needed? Great videos, love the channel!!
I agree, great channel
Definitely! ❤️
The 180 thermostat will not turn on the fans any sooner! It will open up flow of the coolant through your engine, but the fan turn on temp is controlled by the computer and would need a tuner to change that.
Yup
Tazer may also do this.
HE IS FULL OF BS
I thought the newer hemis came with 180° thermostat
Once I got to him saying the thermostat turns on the fans I quit the video, obviously does not know what he is talking about.
Thanks RacerX. These mods make more sense to me now, where I was skeptical before. What size throttle body should I go with? Just love your channel. Thanks for all the great content.
RacerX by far the best straight up channel for the 392 hemi community thanks for all your work and information
Just got my scat , and I’m in love. Thanks for the content ! Very informative , straight to the point , no bs. My kinda channel ! Subscribed !
Thank you! I did everything you recommended from this video I'm very satisfied, I bought the throttle body and catch can for my 2020 Challenger Scat Pack from Modern Muscle Extreme, and I told them RacerX recommended the parts. I really enjoy your videos keep them coming thanks again.
which throttle body did you get? do you mind sending me the name of it because i dont know which one is the better/correct one
What website you go to?
Always informative videos!! Thank you RacerX. Love scatpacks and all things Mopar in general!!!!!
Thank you my friend 👍
RacerX! First of all, I’m a huge fan of your channel...PLEASE keep it coming, and thank you. My question is, what (if any) power gains did you notice from the throttle body? That’s one of the next things I want to do with my Charger. Would you say it was worth it??
Thanks for the info RacerX, love your vids, always informative and not biased. I ordered the 87mm throttle body after watching. One question I have is did you remove the cap from the passenger side light port?
Nice content RacerX, just picked up my destroyer gray 392 scatpack widebody challenger. Absolutely a beast! I appreciate the information 👍
One mod I would add to this list is a set of lowering springs. You can get a good set for around $290. This will make the car handle better.
I’ve been watching your scar pack videos everyday lol I plan on buying one at the end of the year
Always great stuff Mr X! Enjoying watching your videos on lock-down here in St. Louis.
I did 3 T's on my '16 SP - Tazer, Tune & Tires.
I know tune and tires are more than $300 each, but that's all it really needed to unlock it's true performance potential.
zindallas .. agreed .. tune and tires make the biggest difference on these cars
@Scar face I've owned the car for a little over a year and been to the track a bunch of times with it. I'd say tune (both engine and tranny) and tires each cut about 2 to 3 tenths of a second off my times. Stock these will do high 12s. With tune, tires and some decent air this past Fall I ran 11.7
zindallas I have a 2016 Scat and looking to do some mods. What kind of tuning do you suggest?
@@danteblrmf304 There are a number of good ones out there - I went with a Hemifever tune for both engine and transmission on mine and have been happy with it. www.hemifevertuning.com/
@@danteblrmf304 Here's some video I shot right after putting the tune on the car. Was a hot summer night and running into a pretty good headwind but still ran low 12s. Later in the Fall with better conditions got it down into the 11s. ruclips.net/video/RV8D2bP-CPY/видео.html
Not a big mopar guy but love his informative videos. Actually in the market soon for a scat packet. Was pretty set on a 5.0 until I found racerx and started doing more research.
I hear you I'm a huge Chevy guy. Looking at a Hellraisin scatt pack
I just did the mid muffler delete today on my 2016 scat pack. Wow what instant gratification!!! Thanks RacerX. I have been wondering if I should do it and your video made me go ahead and do it.
Does this void warranty ?
No drone?
RacerX's videos are so informative!
Awesome to see i have same exact car, color year and shaker pkg. So far after a year i am still loving every minute of this thing!!!! Great videos too bud!
One other thing, after a bunch of research before doing i went with Dynomax race bullets for $25 each x2 on Amazon. Pretty much equals out rather then going the cat delete route.
The Scatpack is a ton of fun to drive and own 👍..
Hey R-X...I have a 2020 custom Widebody ScatPack on order, and I was considering a few of the incremental mods you have suggested in several of your videos to gain that "incremental" HP and/or health of the vehicle for a reasonable cost as follows (1) Oil Catch Can; (2) 84 or 87mm throttle body; (3) 180 Degree Thermostat; (4) Lower Hellcat Airbox and headlight RAM air tube; and a Borla Cat-Back Exhaust (i.e. either S-Type or ATAK, not sure yet)says for the S-Type or Atak Cat-Back exhaust, besides dropping a few pounds and the resonators along with it, Borla states it increases horsepower 10-12 HP gain. If true, by all accounts the throttle body with the Borla System should add about 15 to 17 HP, and perhaps another 3 to 5 HP with the lower Hellcat Airbox. So maybe 18 to 23 HP overall with those minor mods. Does that sound about right, and again that is presuming Borla's claim is accurate. I spoke with Ian over there and he said that is Dyno tested/proven. Thoughts?
P.S. Really enjoy your channel. Thanks for the educational info-tainment buddy.
another great video X... thanks as always
I added a 3" MBRP Racing catback fully stainless steel with quad tip carbon fiber covered tips. For about 1100 installed, it was the single biggest boost to the coolness of my WBSP. Rips at WOT.
Awesome video RacerX! Very informative and well explained!🐟
Thank you Catfish
Cool Vid as Always. Traded my daily 15 challenger sxt of three years and 50k miles for a 20 Scat with DP last week. You are partly to blame RacerX!
Nice.. I will take the blame for that one 👍
Lol
Absolutely to blame , I just traded in my Indigo GT Charger for a Plum Crazy Scat Chally! 😎 ITS A BEAST!
1st wheels and tires
2nd more r/t and bee badges
3rd mufflers
Haha that’s one approach 👍
Again,a very good and informative video for someone like myself. ( new car owner). Thanks.
Thank you Lewis
Absolutely love your videos very informative, just noticed I wasn’t subbed, changed that!
As always great info .thank you
Thank you so so much for these great mods . I will be looking into a speeds logic catch can aswell as the other under the hood mods . Cheers
Absolutely Mike
You might also want to look into a Billet Technology catch can
Very good video good information, on my 2018 Daytona I have an active exhaust and I won’t touch it and delete anything I’ll keep my mufflers it sounds awesome, the throttlebody I’m definitely going to look into I already have the Catchcan thanks for the info keep up on the videos
nice and smooth options, I will do it to my scat.
Thanks with love.
Sounds good Dhafar
I've never heard of anybody address #3 or #5 before now. I'll definitely research this and get it done sometime after this covid-19 crap is over with. Thanks for the info!
Awesome, thanks RaceX!
I’ve been waiting for this vid 🙏🙏
Jaime Rodriguez 🤜🔥🔥
I appreciate you staying home bro! It’s the little things that help! I came to this video seeing was up since I got a Scatpack charger 2019... thanks bro! Subbed 💯👍🏼
@Will iam just by your comment I can already tell you’re voting/voted for trump lol. It’s stupid to think the pandemic is a hoax when it’s killing hundreds of thousands around the globe. “Violating our rights” our rights get violated regardless of a pandemic or not by the government so why get all ticked about it during these times. Grow up
Hey RacerX.. I just bought a 2016 Shaker ScatPack and am interested in these mods.
Thanks so much for posting! My Scat came with QTP Exhaust with electric 'cut out.' The thing is sick! Cheers!
Nice.. enjoy that Scatpack my friend
Thanks for the helpful information bro.. I'll be doing those mods very soon
Absolutely Jay
Mopar's never did like to run hot. Keeping cool was an old school trick on the old 440s. I ran my 440 6pack with a160 stat. Temp averaged 170. BIG difference that 30 - 40 degree coolant temp makes! Especially when hitting the NOS. Temp / Air Flow is a smart mod. Thanks RX
Yes sir! Thanks a lot ! All great pickups that I will definitely get. Going to pick up my brand new 2020 widebody charger scatpack in a few hours!! 🥳🥳 Content coming soon!
Nice.. it’s like Christmas in March 👍
RacerX sure is! Lol. Love your content, man. Hopefully down the line once I got some good content under my belt and build up a little following, we can colab on something. Definitely a goal of mine. Will be shouting you out on my channel as one of the main people I follow for this car content, with out a doubt!
@@louiexiii91 This comment aged well
Awsome video, well explained💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥.
Orangecrush392 .. thanks buddy 👍
I think this is your best video! I agree 100 percent with all the mods.
What do you this about adding high flow exhaust or will that void the warranty?
William Shaw .. it may void the exhaust warranty but it shouldn’t hurt the engine warranty at all
FIRST! 💪🏿🙌🏿 I WATCH YOU DAILY BRO! YOU AND YOUR WIFE ARE AN INSPIRATION TO US ALL! LOOKING TO BUY MY FIRST 2019 CHARGER DAYTONA SCAT PACK THIS WEEKEND! COMING FROM HUNGTINTON WEST VIRGINIA! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK RACER X!!!!
jessica dean .. awesome I hope you really enjoy that beast .. be safe out there 👍
@@RacerX9 thanx man i appreciate that! Didnt really expect you to reply! Thats dope lol stay humble bro!
I absolutely like the sound of the 6.4 bone stock...not too obnoxious
Great video bro, I have a R/T looking to do some of these to my car.
Definitely go with the mid muffler delete, cost me 100 bucks, sounds great especially in sport mode.
I enjoyed this video very helpful
great video! thank you!
This is the video I needed
Hey, RacerX! So i've had my own scat pack shaker for a few weeks now and i've done the rear and mid muffler delete. Any opinion on if removing those you LOSE power? I work in a shop and I feel the back pressure thing has long been proven a myth since we have dynos and such now that prove no power loss but i wanna know your opinion. Have personally felt nothing different from the car and still performs amazingly! Appreciate the videos and would definitely appreciate the feedback.
Thanks Brother excellent
Great video your the 🐐- scatpack charger 19’
I appreciate that man 🤜🔥🔥
True that 💯
Appreciate you man!
Thank you!
Cool video man hard to make that content right now huh lol all good still love it. You and family stay safe stay Fast my friend
Thank you Justin.. you too buddy 👍
Great video buddy 👍
Thanks again Chad
Good informative video. 👍🏽
Thank you my friend
Very helpful thank u
I seen all your videos and I love your cars so I want to ask you a question on knowing your a car guy I have a 2017 scat pack charger 392 I bought it bone stock and I want to add long tube headers and some more stuff what’s your recommendation a long tube headers and which ones I should put
Just had my mid mufflers deleted based off of this video and it is well worth the money! Night and day difference 💪🏾
Do you have a sound bite for the muffler delete
Richard Velasquez yeah check it out on my page I just posted 2 vids.
Would this void your warranty?
@@2icy214 No, I had a valve spring replaced under warranty after getting the delete no issues. The way it was explained to me it only voids the exhaust warranty. My car is out of warranty nowadays, but for the newbies it will void the exhaust section of the factory warranty.
How’s the drone?
Thanks for the video, man.👍🏻
Didn't know about the 180° t-stat. I've pre-ordered a '20 scatpack T/A 392. Waiting for delivery (pending Covid19 plant closures, etc). Not sure if I'll do the mid-muffler delete, but will do catchcan, 180 t-stat & throttle body.
Thx again!
Dave ForTexas .. nice .. I hope you get it soon 👍
Hi RacerX. I own a 6.4L 2022 Challenger Scat Pack and I'm considering replacing the throttle body. I checked the Modern Muscle Xtreme, but they are recommending 87mm., instead of the 78mm that you are mentioning in your video. Any suggestions?
New scat pack owner replacing 15 camaro 2ss...scat 100x better and great info Racerx
Hey racer got a question. You say that the mods are for scat packs but does that include dodge charger scat packs or is it just for the challengers?
Thanks RacerX! How much HP would the throttle body get you, do you think?
I’m not entirely sure Mike if I’m honest.. most of the time people will do this with other mods so it’s difficult to determine how much it will add by itself
I happened across a 2012 SRT8 Yellowjacket in almost new condition with 45,000 miles on it. Picked it up for a great deal. I'm wondering if these mods can be done to this car?
FANTASTIC VIDEO very well explained Thank you! #TeamX
Thank you Michael 🤜🔥🔥
@@RacerX9 I have a 2020 wide body with two heat vents on either side of the hood. If installed the hellcat box will water go straight to the air filter if it’s raining or I’m washing the car
Shaker hood beautiful
You have any recommendations on a specific throttle body or a specific size for one?
I heard that if you get a 180 thermostat it’s useless unless you tune the fans to or something of the sort. Otherwise it just stays open all the time.
After a long tube headers I’m gonna put high flow cats I already did the mid muffler delete and I was thinking to put a cam then a tune what’s your thoughts on it
Great video!! what size throttle body do you run on yours just bought a 2020 widebody scatpack
I'm guessing 92mm make be I can't remember though
Go for the fastman 84 mm throttle body , best bang for the buck
I just swapped mine for an 87 mm ported TB from ModernMuscleXtreme. Made identical passes right before and after the swap and noticed a gain in low end torque both subjectively and on the Dyno in Perf Pages. Sounds better too!
I have a 2016 Charger SRT, deleting mid mufflers wont hurt the active exhaust? also only saw 87mm throttle body on the site.
Could you provide links to purchase the catch can thermostat and intake?
Thanks for the video Racer X. Question for you if you or any viewer knows the answer, did you say or will the mid muffler delete effect emissions reading.
It will not
You should not throw any codes 👍
Thanks for answering. My 2019 Challenger Scatpack, stock is fun. These mods are great.
If you switch the throttle body what kind of MPG loss do you suffer?
Just got my 2021 scatpack
Hey RacerX, would be glad to meet up with you some time, live south of Granbury TX, have a ‘16 Challenger Scat Pack. Love your videos man.
South Florida = Window tint!! Cosmetic and functional!
Does deleting the resonators affect performance? Heard some people lost a little bit of low end torque when gone.
I have been watching you videos for sometime now and I believe that you have done your research. I have a 2018 Scat Pack Shaker with the 6.4 Auto trans and a 390 gear. it has 24K miles on it and want to keep it street. I originally planned to either put my NX kit from my 2013 R/T 5.7 on this car or go ProCharger. After seeing a bunch of your videos, now believing it's a bad idea for longevity. I want your option on how to reach the 11's without Nitrous or Supercharger. Please, let me know your thoughts. thank you in advance.
Just checking to see your thoughts.
Will the open headlight air intake mod cause problems if drivin in the rain?
All good suggestions however the t-stat recommendation works better with a tune so you can adjust the fans because if the car isn’t tuned the fans will run prematurely because at idle the car will heat up quick until the radiator gets air flowing.
6.4L HemiPower .. this is true.. a tune may help to keep the fans from turning on prematurely
Probably a stupid question but can the hell cat air intake go on a 2014 srt8? Looking to do a few things to the car since I've been furloughed
My 5.7 RT also has the midmufler on it.
I am here in Ft. Worth TX, just curious about any upgrading of my instrument cluster. I have a 2010 RT Challenger. I swear it looks like my old Chrysler 200 limited. Lol I have seen only one guy put some covers over his that looks cool but he never shared where to get them
What part of fort worth are you in? What are some good mopar shops in the area? I live up near keller.
RacerX i have a 2021 dodge chellenger and thinking about resognator delete. Would it hurt my engine or my engine light will come off if i do?
What’s your opinion on the 85mm throttle body from bbk?
Won't the 180 thermostat require a tune? Not for the fans but because the car thinks the engine is not getting up to temp? Our 2012 charger did this when the thermostat failed and it was only getting to 185-190...
thats cool but where do i go to get some of the stuff like the shaker hood and scope the stuff i looked up cost way more
Thanks for tips... but how much horse power can hope to get from these upgrades and does it need to be tuned to see some gains
Because the Scatpack is so optimized from the factory .. gains are incremental .. a tune does help some. Lets say 12-15hp without a tune
Have you done "active exhaust" stay open? What do you think?
Nice
Hey man I got a question I’ve been thinking in my head is it possible to install a Redeye air intake plus the tube into my scat pack
Just wanted kno Ik they don’t generate much horse power but by doing this how many did we increase 🔥🔥
The mid delete is a no-go for me. I live in a rural neighborhood and already feel like I'm pissing them off with the stock exhaust, lol.
Your videos are very informative but a couple of comments.
1. A lower temperature thermostat has no effect on the electric fan on/off set temperatures as these are programmed into the ECU. However if you have a stock thermostat and your fan on temperature has been reduced below that of the thermostat opening temperature, your fan will switch on earlier and will only switch off when you shut down the engine. If you have a 180*F thermostat, you ideally need the electric fan to switch on at ~195*F and off at ~185*F (slightly higher than thermostat opening temperature) so that it can cycle within a fairly narrow range.
2. The MMX ported throttle body is 87mm, not 78mm. The stock Scatpack throttle body is 80mm.
You are exactly right on both accounts .. I caught a couple of things later where I mispoke.. good catch brother! I wanted to make a few alterations to the video but once it's out there you just kinda gotta roll with it
So do I have to do oil changes more frequently with the catch can now added?
Hello Racer X why is a 6.4 car lower in the front than a 3.6 model?
I got a 20-30$ catch can and its pretty good lol, its baffled btw too
My splitter has a ugly crack. Feels cheap. Factory one. What aftermarket one would u recommend, I have a 2018 scat.
You may need to tune your afr for the throttle body.
Can you attach the actual link to where you bought your oil catch can? I have a 23 shaker, and had to return the catch can, since it wouldn't let me close the hood of the car. So I need something with a lower mounting point, like you have. Thanks in advance.
