Dodge Challenger SRT Demon Diverts A/C To Cool Engine
With just under two weeks to go now until the release of the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon at the NYIAS and Dodge continues to impress with every teaser video. The second to last installment in the video series features the Demon’s cooling system which is unlike any other in a factory production car. According to Dodge the Demon will feature “a liquid-to-air charge air cooler chiller system. This exclusive performance feature enables the Challenger SRT Demon to achieve charge air induction temperatures previously unattainable by pressure-charged street-legal production vehicles.” Meaning when in Drag Mode the Demon will send the A/C air from the interior to chill the engine’s air cooling system.
The result of this is an up to 45 degree Fahrenheit decrease in air intake temperature.

Behind The Scenes At Mega Race
“It was close; but that’s the way it is in war. You win or lose, live or die — and the difference is just an eyelash.” – General Douglas MacArthur
Well, there you have it. The outcome to Mega Race wasn’t what we hoped for, but they were some fast dudes. Congratulations to Big Chief and Street Outlaws and thanks for challenging us to take on a build like none before. Man, 1/100th of a second or “just an eyelash.” We’d love to get this car back on the track soon.
