| Cruise past Mike Abatecola’s driveway in San Jose, CA, and you’ll see two late-model Challengers parked there—Mike’s wife’s 2010 SE and Mike’s own ’09 R/T shown here. Mike’s modded the Dodge with an 85mm throttle body and spacer, Mopar CAI, catch can, 180 T-stat, Predator 91 CAI tune, Eibach pro kit 1.5˝ drop, custom stripes, carbon fiber-look hood and trunk lid, custom pistol grip shifter and SRT knock-off wheels. Mike says he’s had car up to 120 MPH in 3rd gear with 2 more to go! Mike traded in his ’08 Mustang when he bought the Challenger as a daily driver on Pearl Harbor Day, Dec. 7, 2010—a date he says he’ll always remember. | ||
