Nothing fancy to anyone into cars. 2017 Daytona 5.7L.
I went from a 4 cylinder to this so it's a big step up for me but it's no Scat Pack.
370HP, 395lb torque where as the Scat Pack is 485HP and 475lb-ft.
It is roughly $8k - $10k difference between the 2 and I just couldn't afford it.
My car moves and sounds incredible but the Scat Pack had me shitting my pants.
Anyway as this being a daily driver I wanted some opinions. Looking at price/performance but also a big worry is causing issues on my only car atm.
Could get a comp cam, long headers and a 3.09 differential. Parts and labor, idk. Guessing $5k for all that? To MAYBE get close to scat pack numbers?
Just not sure if I should wait to see how this car does through a winter, save up a few more k and trade for a scat pack or just upgrade some parts.
