  • Stainless Works vs Stainless Power Headers

    Stainless Works vs Stainless Power Headers

    differences explained

    Stainless Works is a staple across our domestic performance packages. They have great construction quality, fit and finish, and performance, all at an affordable price. We stock both Stainless Works and Stainless Power options at our shops and are asked regularly, “What is the difference between the two options.” This video will help to explain the differences and you can go online to see these options embedded in multiple packages we offer.

  • PCM Unlock Service – 2015+ Mopar Vehicles

    PCM Unlock Service – 2015+ Mopar Vehicles

    PCM Unlock – 2015+ Mopar vehicles

    National Speed offers PCM (Powertrain Control Module) unlocking services for 2015+ Mopar (Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram) vehicles. Recalibrating or tuning a Mopar PCM involves physical modifications to the module to unlock the potential. This service is needed when tuning a vehicle to compensate for modifications, resulting in added power, torque, and performance. What does this mean to you? Fast Service! In the past, unlocking services meant sending your PCM directly HPTuners to unlock, getting the PCM sent back, and then tuning your vehicle in the shop. With shipping, waiting, shipping, and waiting…the process could take a week, sometimes more, to get a PCM back in the shop. Now that unlocking services can happen here in the shop, we cut out days of downtime and can get performance installations and tuning done faster. Tuning is necessary for any of our Staged Performance Packages and we have parts in stock to handle all Stage 1 and Stage 2 installs now… with no delays, backorders, or downtime.

  • When the Dodge Challenger Came to Town

    Sometimes I have to remind myself I get paid to do what I do. Normally my typical morning at work consists of perusing MySpace and trying to remember what’s her name’s name, but this morning was different. Today I’m told that Scott Vandekerckhove, a representative from Chrysler with a name my spellchecker absolutely despises, is coming by the shop with the new Dodge Challenger SRT-8. Since August 13th, Scott has been driving down the east coast on a road tour to promote the new Dodge Challenger and after hearing about National Speed, decided to check out the shop and let us get a look under the hood.

    Combining old school lines with a modern aesthetic, the new Dodge Challenger is a pretty sweet ride. In fact, I would say I prefer it to the new Mustang — sorry to the Ford lovers, I love Steve McQueen as much as the next guy, but the Challenger is so much cooler. The SRT-8 comes fully loaded with a 6.1-liter HEMI V8 engine capable of 425 horsepower and the suspension to back it up. And while we weren’t allowed to take it for a test drive (and considering my driving record that’s probably a good thing) we did manage to get the Challenger on the dyno.

    When we strapped her down and cranked her up the Challenger’s GPS went absolutely nuts, thinking it was traveling at a ridiculous speed. By the end of the third pull I think the car ended up somewhere in eastern St. Louis. Overall, the Challenger is an impressive car and we’re stoked that Scott stopped by National Speed to let us check it out. He’s an awesome guy so be sure to give him a thumbs up when you see him cruising by picking up chicks along the east coast. You should also check out the official Dodge blog which details Scott’s adventures eastbound and down. Thanks again Scott for your hospitality. Now how about that test drive?

    UPDATE – AUGUST 29, 2008

    We previously held off on publishing the dyno results for the Challenger due to Chrysler having to approve it first. Luckily, Scott got back with us and we’ve been given the okay to post the dyno sheet. The Challenger ended up putting down 339 horses.
