SpeedFactory SF600R Dodge Challenger gets 6-speed manual, makes 600-hp

2010 SpeedFactory SF600R Dodge Challenger

The Dodge Challenger SRT8 already makes an outstanding 425-hp but if your Atlanta based tuning company SpeedFactory, that’s not enough. Meet the new 2010 SpeedFactory SF600R Dodge Challenger – a 600-hp muscle car with a 6-speed manual.

Based on the standard 6.1L HEMI V8 Dodge Challenger SRT8, SpeedFactory increased displacement to 7.0L, added a higher volume air intake system, stainless steel Corsa exhaust, a custom Comp hydraulic cam along with an 85mm throttle body with a CNC machined stock manifold. That allows for a dyno-proven 595-605 HP on premium-grade 91 octane pump fuel.

The SF600R Challenger rides on Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires that wrap themselves around 20-inch BBS Black Edition CH-R flow-formed wheels.

The 2010 SF600R Challenger is priced at $73,900. and is available for immediate delivery.
