📋 About This Mod
Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat – Retuned Edition
A more manageable but fun driving rework for castletroy777’s Hellcat, based on Authentic Shift values.
🔧 What’s changed?
• Engine sound swapped from Galena to Quadra Type-66 (640 TS) — sounds much more brutal and powerful
• Grip and suspension behavior heavily reworked using Authentic Shift values as a foundation
• Hellcat no longer drifts like it's on ice — still tail-happy if you floor it, but now with controllable, responsive driving
• No more very narrow, unresponsive steering on high speeds that feels like it "locks up"
• Feels more like a proper muscle car: aggressive, intuitive, and satisfying to master

⚠ Requirements
This mod requires:
• Authentic Shift
• Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat by castletroy777 – obviously for the vehicle itself
Installation
Manual Installation:
Drop the contents of the `Hellcat Retuned` folder into your Cyberpunk 2077 root directory.
If prompted, overwrite existing files from castletroy777's mod. This mod only adjusts handling, engine sound, and tuning values — no mesh or texture files are modified.
With Mod Manager (e.g. Vortex, MO2):
Just install like any other mod. Make sure it loads after the original Hellcat mod so it can overwrite tuning values.
Uninstall
Simply remove the files or disable the mod in your mod manager.
❗ Important Notes
• This is a tuning mod — it does not alter the car's 3D model or customization options
• Intended to enhance gameplay feel, not be simulation-accurate
• Tested with a controller
Big thanks to castletroy777 for the amazing base mod, and to imbamakaber for Authentic shift!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Tackles the Hellcat's twitchy handling—grip and throttle are smoothed out for daily driving
- The Quadra engine sound adds a meaner, more aggressive tone that fits the car's personality
- Solid community traction with 60 endorsements and over 5k downloads
⚠️ Cons
- Requires castletroy777's Hellcat mod and Authentic Shift as dependencies—not standalone
- Only one sound option (Quadra) with no alternatives mentioned
- Last updated June 2025—may not be updated for future game patches
For Cyberpunk 2077 players who love the Hellcat but find the stock handling too loose or the throttle too jumpy. Also for those who want a more aggressive engine note. Skip if you're fine with the original handling or prefer a stock sound.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have both castletroy777's Hellcat and Authentic Shift installed before adding this mod—it won't work without them.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, let it handle file conflicts to avoid overwriting the base mod's files.
- Test the handling in a quiet area first—the improved grip changes how the car corners, so get a feel before hitting traffic.
