Great info Racerx and I’m happy for the Dodge owners out there. Gotta be nice to feel some love from the manufacturer

Please when direct connection does have the kits for our 392 post a new video letting everyone know and what will the HP be ,thanks.

Great Video! Very cool that you are a Central Florida KZfaqr!

You do great work 👏

This is a smart move from Dodge. It adds value to the purchase of applicable vehicles. I mean, who doesn't want more power? With an applicable warranty, no less? Direct connection. Hooking people up!

Jeez I wish I could afford to buy a red-eye! What a time to be alive.

Glad to see this! Still have to search although subscribed. Good stuff buddy! BUT this CARB compliant stuff we should put an end to not vindicate their authority by delaying products release until "certified" Al

Racer X does it again.

Talked with my local Dodge parts dealer today. He told me the pre-stage/stage 2 kit for my 22 Super Stock is on the way. Hope to schedule the install later this week.

SIDENOTE: I noticed you are wearing a nice button down “Mopar Direct Connect” shirt. Is RacerX coming back to Dodge?? Showing some brand loyalty?? 😄. Love your Dodge content. Keep it up. 👍🏻

Racer X, love the content!! By any chance are you aware of the 2020 challenger redeye 1st to 2nd gear shifting hiccup?? I'm wondering if this tuner will eliminate this issue that seems like every 2020 and newer redeyes are having. Would love to pick your brain on this topic

That's super dope.

Hopefully, it can be retrofitted to work on my '85 Dodge Aries K

Great video! something to think about I have the 2019 challenger hellcat🤔

Great job X. Would love to see Dodge put out stage kits for the 5.7 since they take mods so well. And there are a lot more of them on the roads

Hopefully the RT boys get a kit too

The stage kit is the run of the mill diablo. I went ahead and did hp tuners....dyno checked at 845 chp. Courtesy of our friends in Virginia. Also, duel fuel pump and 1000 cc injectors and cooler thermo and plugs and pullys raising smush to 14.5 lbs. MY first run I had to fish out my nuts from my pelvis.

I’d rather spend the extra money for a Forza stage 4R upgrade, which adds 1000HP with suspension upgrades to handle the extra power which is a must.

I think you should pick up that 20 redeye and start doing stuff with it for the channel!!!😎

Can you do a video on what the stage kit for the 392 would intel? Being that you said the 392 engine is already optimized from the factory

I wonder if you could add direct connection to anything with the hellcat engine? (Trackhawk,Durango,TRX)

Yeah beware cause I had the stage 2 kit installed by a power broker on my challenger Redeye and a week after installing the supercharger stopped putting out any boost. Now my car has been at the dealer going on 3 weeks and they’ve been going back and forth with engineers to figure out a solution. Seems to be the pulley. 2 failed pulleys in a row and now they are going to put the stock pulley back on cause they can’t figure out the root cause of the problem. Just be prepared that you may have issues after installation.

Hopefully us 392 boys get blessed. I’ll take a little bump to 500hp and I’m golden

I’m interested in the 392 stage kits…hopefully they materialize.

Hey Paul, as usual my comments are far between. I’ve been chomping at the bit with anticipation for these stage kits to become CARB compliant. Literally the weekend before they became available I had my Hellcat serviced and answered the dealership survey experience with the comment “forget about CARB compliance, we owners could care less about CARB”. Then boom! Available, LoL. Anyway, I have a serious question you would be the best to ask. Stage 1 for my Hellcat, or nitrous? If I invest in a second intake with a nitrous injector I can avoid voiding the warranty? Also, it’s power for the weekend warrior, not always on. Is the stock computer able to adjust for nitrous? Or, Stage 1 AND nitrous? I appreciate your enthusiasm and willingness to get out there to find the info we all wish we had time to get. As always, thanks and stay safe brother.

Racer! Question for ya, kind have settled on either a 392 charger or a dark horse mustang. My dealer I go to now can order either one but wasnt sure what would to go for. Was kind of curious as to what one you'd recommend?

Excited to see what they come out with for the 392 and would like to hear your predictions on what the stages or gonna be for 392 think that would be an interesting video for all the 392 and 1320 guys !!

Just talked to a DC dealer WRT my 2021 Redeye about getting a pre stage and stage II kit. Will be approximately $5300 for both when factoring in labor...

are these only for hellcats or how bout scatpack 392's stage kits?

I would not expect much from the 392 unless they come out with a stage kit that includes forged pistons.

give the 5.7 some love

@RacerX ? Anything yet on those stage kits for us scat pack 392 owners

@9:53 why don’t they just leave California out the mix for now, and figure out a workaround for them afterwards?

Do they give a price for install, or does that price include install

i'm going tomorrow morning, yes May 1 to my dealer to install the stages. i own 2021 dodge hellcat redeye widebody. i know you need the pre stage, but do i need to get stage 1 AND 2, or go starlight to stage 2. i believe i get the pre stage and stage 2, and skip stage 1, correct? or will i miss anything by not getting stage 1? thanks in advance

Looking at getting a Jailbreak Challenger. Would these work on it? Great price for the performance.

It's the last year we're making v8s. Well let you get stage kits now!

Won't see them for the Durango or TrackHawk 😢They took way to long to get them out and warranty would be gone before I would even get it done. Pretty much limits the appeal to the last couple of model years and only Challengers at the moment. If you don't have warranty left it's a really tough sell given the price.

The stages are basically pulley , intake and maybe TB , you will get another extra 100 hp nothing too big

I'm getting a 2022 dodge challenger widebody red-eye jailbreak so will I be able to get the stage kits for that car?

What about the Super Stock Challengers, is that a separate kit too ?

Where do you get the 100 octane fuel? Does the car run on E85?

Will this work on 2023?

Remember the Scat Pack stages back in 2016. They were factory direct packages for the 392 and 5.7... Dodge also claimed that those stages would not void the warranty, but my local dealer told me flat out that even with the stage kits, changing any internals on the OEM engine would result in denied warranty claims. In other words, the warranty is not voided but broken engine parts due to failed aftermarket components of any kind would not be covered under warranty repairs. Also, be fully aware that the cost of the kits do not include labor to have them installed.

This will last a few months then Dodge will stop selling the staged kits. They did same thing with the SRT-4 staged kits. Once Dodge stops selling the gasoline powered hellcats they will stop selling the kits.

Hey RACER X - Any news on the rumor that Hellcats will be offered with a manual again for the last half of ‘23?

do getting the upgrades through dodge allow it to be able to reflect on the dodge performance pages where it says POWER: xxx HP

What about the TRX?

Does Dodge have to install it for warranty to be void?

Can you get a stage 2 kit and keep your LMI aftermarket intake?

Hey RacerX! Awesome video 🤞🏾do they sell their cars at MSRP or do they have markups?

Is it a TBA date for Durango hellcat ?

🏆Racer x 🏆 🍀got R done😎✌️

Hope the come out w kits for the scat and rt hopefully bare minimum the tuner

Should be picking up my 2023 1320 next week. First thing to do is remove the stock drag radials and replace with good street tires, probably all seasons type. Do you have any recommendations? Don't want to spend a boat load as this new Scat is being paid in full and funds will be a bit strained! What do you use on your Scat? Thanks.

Anything for the Super Stock?

I know this was a month ago and maybe I am too late. How many people read the instructions on the stage 2 or hellcat stage 1. It tells you that you need tools that were not automatically shipped, and hardware and gasket kits to complete the upgrade. Guess what is on backorder. So now I just got in the main gasket kits for the redeye and still waiting for the hellcat kits and various hardware. Oh and I ordered them right around the time of this video.

I guess i still have a couple months before 2023 end before kit would be available hopefully. 23 hellcat jailbreak i have

So are they gonna make stage kits for the 392

Any chance the Jeep Trackhawk will get a Stage Kit?

What is the dealership charging for the installation

Direct Connection just told me all stage kits are released for Challengers and Chargers. Shipping out this week. Interesting you were told the Chargers are later.

What do they have for the 2023 Durango hellcat?

Think there will be a 18” demon kit ?

Are they gonna make them for rt ?

I need this tune on my SRT 392😫

How much power do you think the stage kits for the scatpacks will add? I have a 2020 scatpack widebody.

Pretty sure there are more RT/Scatpacks out there than hellcats. By like a lot! Wouldn’t it be smarter to put something out for the larger crowd?🤔

Hopefully they don’t forget about the Durango srt and hellcats

So, I have a 22 jailbreak Redeye, stock it is 807hp, what will stage two do for it?

I doubt that the 392’s will gain much, if and when they have kits for it. Unless they’re offering a cam, head parts and headers.

The reason why they finally got these stage kits now is because they can't sell those over sticker hellcats. They need 💰 😂

So maybe I missed this whole part but what is the install labor? I feel like that's always where they stick it to us. Otherwise almost sounds to good to be true.

Would love to see rt kits like this too. I voided my warranty 🫠 so it won’t help me but still would be nice to see.

Is anyone aware that slim body challenger hellcats dyno at the wheel 30+ more hp then the wide body ? I’m wondering with a stage 1 kit would that make them faster then a wide body red eye 🤔?

Never mind got answer.

Do you need 88 more hp in one of those cars?

Wonder if they'll ever offer scatpack stage kits.

How about us with the hellcat redeye jailbreak charger 😢 with 807 hp do we get this pakage

Has anyone had these installed yet? I’m still waiting and no update on shipping status. What install labor quotes are dealers telling owners? Mine is saying 9 hrs to change a pully and install air filter???

What about the RAM TRX? Will it get stage kits, too?

What about the r/t guys

Mopar or no car! Unless it’s a Chevy 😅. (Man I love those Hellcats tho)

Want a stage kit for my 2021 Dodge Charger R/T Plus. It has a HEMI engine V8.

When is stage 3 coming out for Redeye. I rather wait and get prestage and jump to stage 3.

How different is the redeye from the hellcat? Because I was thinking if you upgraded to the same parts then can’t you use those stage kits instead?

Does anyone know if it will get rid of the hiccup between shifts?

Any new videos coming out on your mustang?

Hopefully there isn’t a markup on Stage Kits, once the customer list starts backing up lol

HOPEFULLY REDEYE STAGE 3 TBD WILL ADD E85 CONVERSION FLEX FUEL OPTION N OVER 950HP. IVE BEN ASKING 3 POWERBROKER DEALORSHIPS IN CALI FOR OVA 12MONTHS ON THESE REDEYE STAGE KITS,,,FINALLY GOT PASS CALI CARB CERTIFICATIONS🤣👍💯🎯 CANT WAIT 2 SEE WHATS REDEYE STAGE 3💯🎯🦾

I think its a great idea.. BUT.. its so damn expensive for not a huge jump in power… drive the damn thing 36,000mi stock. Then give er the beans! Pulleys,tune and such and make 1000+ HP for a much better price! I see a huge cash grab on the Direct Connection.. not a fan

Will they make any for the older srt8 chargers?

Are scatpacks gonna get any?

Well my hellcat jailbreak I ordered is not even built yet 😂

But for about $5k you can get 850whp I say throw the warranty away especially if your close to that threshold hold lol or out of warranty

Predictions on Stage Kits for all us 392 folks? Stage-1, Stage-2, maybe a Stage-3? Pre-stage kit? Recognizing that the 392 cars are pretty well optimized in bone stock form. Hopefully, a Stage-1 would deliver at a minimum at least 25-30 more HP & Torque. A Stage-2 at least 50-55 more. Stage-3 at least 75-80 more. These are modest but noticeably felt increases for these 392 cars with emissions legal and warranty retained. Hmmmm...a Stage-4 Track-only (forged pistons, upgraded rods, upgraded cam/heads, more?)?

will the base models get this too?

👍👍👏👏💪💪

What about the superstock and demon challengers.

Think they’ll come out with RT Stage kits ?
