Attention all Dodge Demon enthusiasts! Tuning company SpeedKore has recently announced that their newest creation is headed to the 2018 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) event – a blacked-out Dodge SRT Challenger Demon that produces a massive 1400 horsepower. Yep, that’s right, 1400 horses of sweet baby Jesus power. Not only does the outrageous amount of power make this sinister model even more devilish, but it’s everything on the outside that adds a guaranteed shock factor too.

Fresh off of the production line, the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon was immediately solidified in place as the fastest production car on the market. When optimized with the Demon Crate, its powerful 6.4-liter engine produces 840 horsepower, 770 lb-ft of torque, and can dominate a quarter-mile in 9.65 seconds at a top speed of 140 mph. So, the real question is, how can someone possibly add even more power to an already powerful car?

When designing the fastest Demon known to man, SpeedKore had to take some extreme measures. In addition to bolting two 6875 Precision Billet ball-bearing T4 turbochargers to the 6.4-liter supercharged HEMI V8 engine, all of the Demon’s body panels were replaced with hand-molded carbon fiber ones. Although SpeedKore didn’t necessarily disclose this, replacing the body panels allowed for about 400 pounds to be shaved off on similar vehicle builds. In reference to raw power, SpeedKore claims that once the drivetrain energy loss is factored in, the 1400 horsepower at the flywheel actually decreases to about 1203 horses at the rear wheels. Even still, a 200 horsepower drop isn’t a big deal, especially when the blacked-out demon can demolish a quarter-mile in 8.77 seconds at 161.57 mph – a considerable step up from the regular model and a new record high.  

Along with SpeedKore’s 1400-hp Dodge Demon creation, a Mustang GT350R and Evolution Charger will also be revealed at 2018 SEMA. SpeedKore has yet to announce the pricing for this one-off or what the total is for all the modifications included, but the previously released (July 2017) Mustang Shelby GT350R had a price tag of $64,000, so that should hopefully give consumers a bit of an idea on the price of the Demon. The SEMA event is taking place in Las Vegas on October 30th through November 1st.
