2019 Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye: Possessed by the Demon
http://www.thehemi.com/news.php?id=20180702-1
Designed and engineered with more power to appeal to an even broader muscle car enthusiast audience, the heart of the new 2019 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye comes from its limited-production big brother -- the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon. The supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI high-output V-8 engine is rated at 797 horsepower and 707 lb.-ft. of torque and is mated to a TorqueFlite 8HP90 eight-speed automatic transmission.
Compared with the standard SRT Hellcat engine, the Redeye's supercharged high-output engine features:
* Largest factory supercharger of any production car -- 2.7 liters versus 2.4 liters
* Increased boost pressure: 14.5 psi versus 11.6 psi
* Higher rpm limit: 6,500 rpm versus 6,200 rpm
* Fuel: Two dual-stage fuel pumps versus one
* At full throttle, the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye's high-output engine consumes 1.43 gal/min (5.4 liters/min) of fuel -- enough to drain the fuel tank in just under 11 minutes, yet is still rated at 22 miles per gallon (mpg) when driven in normal highway conditions
* Larger induction air box with three sources of intake air:
* New dual-snorkel hood
* Driver-side Air Catcher headlamp
* Inlet near the wheel liner

Additional features from the SRT Demon that help the Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye achieve its status as the most powerful, quickest and fastest muscle car:

* Torque Reserve delivers up to 3.9 psi of boost at launch and up to 55 percent more engine torque
* Only factory production car with both SRT Power Chiller and After-Run Chiller
* High-strength steel prop shafts provide a 15 percent increase in torque capacity
* 41-spline half shafts provide a 20 percent increase in torque capacity
