Many here know what I am about to say, but I'm gonna say it anyway for those that may not know.

 

This will also be my big thanks to Scott, Jon and the crew, as I certainly couldn't have done it with it them.

 

 

 

Pics and vids will follow if it ever stops raining in the NE.

 

Build Specs:

 

2007 Steel Blue Magnum

PWR 393 

Ported 6.1 heads

PWR stage 3 cam

90mm Magnuson TVS 

90mm Arrington TB

DSS chromoly DS

3.06 Getrag/axles

BC coilovers install

Dual pump fueling and lines

SHR trans and 3200 'Verter (previously installed)

 

The results of the build were well within my expectations. My "tiny" blower (per Scott) put down 630whp and nearly 680 wtq on Amp's dyno in sunny, 100% humidity SFL.

 

I talked to probably all the vendors here about this build, gathered up all the opinions and pricing, and I kept coming back to AMP. It wasn't so much the value pricing I was getting, but Scott's no bs attitude. If I was out of left field with my idea, Scott told me. If i was completely wrong, Scott told me straight up . As the build progressed, and issues arose (not to the fault of AMP) and I was ready to jump off a bridge or hop a flight down south, Scott talked some sense into me. Never met Scott face to face, but I feel like I gained a good bud on a personal level thru all of this.  Don't think I can say that in all my years of modding cars and dealing with many vendors.

 

I can't say this enough, if you want an honest and experienced opinion about a modern Hemi build, call these guys. You will not be disappointed.. period. 

 

My full review of this car will have to wait until sunnier weather arrives, but the review of AMP's customer service could not.

Again, big thank you to Scott and Jon for a job well done from 1 happy PA customer.

I am sooo happy to hear it's all done! You went through some real lows and was great to have Scott and John to guide you through the mud. I like the honest no bullshit or wasted expense approach they give. I can't wait for some videos and you know me I love our magnums! Sounded bad ass!

Well done amp!

Congrats on getting the car back. No doubt Scott is a straight shooter and very easy to deal with.

Sounds tasty!  Congrats on a nice build.  People all ways wanna pick on Maggie for being a little smaller than the other kids but she sure puts up a good fight on the track   I've yet to see a more reliable easy to live with blower personally.

 

Sounds like a good tune on the car as well. Cold start and reverse were good to go and those can be the tricky bits I've heard.

Thanks all, and Jerseyboy, I was gonna say the same, Scott as well a few others really are assets to the Hemi community. Helping support them is the least we can do.

Johan tuned it on site at AMP and the idle is spot on. I have all of 3 miles on since it's back, but I see no drivability or tune issues. I'll keep an eye on things for sure.

What's another 90-120 days at this point in time Linda? I'll just tell myself spring in next Friday ... Be disappointed ... Repeat. It'll be late April before I know it.
