Interesting on the impact of the later tune....My 16HC runs 11.2 @ 125 consistently on true street tires -all seasons. 10.7s on my drag radials which I run on the street. Have run hot laps and no significant reductions until you heat soak it.
You wouldnt be ZH, would you?

-Car did great in the nastiest winter we have seen in a few years. Snow Tires and Slippery Mode for the Win!
-The location of the oil filter and the resulting mess makes me curse engineers. If these guys actually had to service what they designed...
Cylinder head temp is usually based upon engine coolant temp. I can't imagine a reduction in oil temp is going to move that number. If it does, your bearings are already toast.
I will agree that a stock 6.4 Hemi sounds better at idle than a 5.0, but the 5.0 sounds better under load - and not just volume. Stock GM V8s have sounded neutered to me for decades
As for videos on exhaust "builds" every car group has them and they all are ridiculous IMO. The sound over...
Yes you are right on...I've used Factory reproductions on my old daily driver for snows. Good wheels...and they look fit perfect as an OEM knockoff.
I'd go the black/chrome combo with the all black car IMO
Looks great!!! Are the performance increases with a tune? Or are you suggesting the stock intake constraints are such and the stock tune is that adaptive? Just looking to understand. It does look like a great product and like the it and finish.
Just down the road from you in Ohio...I have Snows (stock wheels) for the winter (Zero Problem in these nasty storms this year) and will be running Conti DWS on larger wheels for the summer. I bought my car to be a daily and have no issue driving it in all conditions. 7500 miles in 3 months.
