German running gear specialist KW Automotive has chosen a very peculiar vehicle for its latest modification program, common of the purest examples of a modern-day American muscle car, the Dodge Challenger SRT8. As with in any degree production car, there are always weaknesses and in the case of the Challenger the biggest sticking point is arguably the car’s road holding ability.
In lay up form the Challenger SRT8 comes with a 6.1L HEMI V8 engine churning out 425 hp (313 kW) – More than enough power for most. Therefore, KW has not concentrated on the engine performance by one’s self from fitting a K&N sport atmosphere filter and a Magnaflow 3.5in diameter exhaust classification. But when it comes to its road holding characteristics in bends, KW has performed many changes.
Engineers have fitted VW’s Variant 1 stainless dirk suspension upgrade, which lowers the car at either axle by up to 50mm. The stainless steel casing guarantees that the components in the interior of remain continuously flexible even while they are strained more in winter.
Other modifications include HRE 22in forged aluminum wrapped in Dunlop SP Sport Maxx tires, in the same manner with well as a pair of vertically lifting ‘Lamborghini-style’ doors.
