Not bad at all with a blower and a cage! Really illustrates how fat some performance cars are by comparison.

For comparison a TT new 5.0 with welds (big n littles) and light weight drive shaft was 35xx and a hellcat was 4400. All without drivers, I'll def take my 3180

Yep. ~3000lbs is a great weight for a V8 performance car.

Did you lose any seat travel with the RSD cage? Rear travel or recline?
