I'll be more specific then.

The warranty in regards to the power train.

Better?

Pretty mild build to be that fast and close to being as fast as you can go without a cage. Why do people go bigger? But stock hellcats are faster than ZL1s.
What the heck does a voltage regulator have to do with hp? I have never heard of this I guess.

Higher voltage to fuel pumps increases their output.

Higher voltage -->More fuel --> more power

I think "less voltage drop [at WOT] --> more fuel --> moar powa" would be more accurate. Quote from the JMS Chip & Performance website:

"The JMS PowerMAX® provides the highest continuous voltage and amperage output without noise, and is available in true 40-amp and 80-amp input fuse configurations. Another industry first includes the ability to choose how to enable the FuelMAX V2 units voltage-boosting output."

It is absolutely not. There are laws against this. You put a smaller pulley on your Chally; the radio breaks. You’re telling me Dodge would deny your claim?

Blaq must have meant the powertrain warranty, and that is shot if you tune the engine. Radio falls under bumper to bumper.

Add some skinny's to the front also or you'll sway .. plus it'll cut about 50 pounds

To much traction in the front will pull you all over the track.. this is something that isn't mentioned enough..or match the compound to the rear..
