This guy say's he's running 15psi on a stock engine!I guess those 6.1 pistons hold up pretty good! The trans and rear axle too!

Where? $5K for 700+HP would be nice!

In addition to the Kenne Bell kit and tuning.....

Tim -

Have you installed and tuned a ProCharger for comparison?

Stock 2009 Challenger SRT8 6 speed + Kenne Bell supercharger system @7.8psi + DCX Depot installed and custom tuned = 541 WHP on pump gas.

To give you a reference of HP figures on our dyno, here are some common numbers we have experienced on numerous occasions:

A typical STOCK 6.1L Hemi = 355-365WHP

DCX Depot custom tune with CAI (cold air intake) + Catback exhaust = 385-395whp

Ported heads + Cam + Headers + Catback and DCX Depot custom tune = 445whp

426 Stroker (7.0L) + Ported heads + Cam + Long tube headers + Catback and DCX Depot Custom tuning = 480-500whp

Techco supercharger @5.3psi + catback + DCX Depot custom tuning = 485whp

Without a doubt, I would lean towards this amazing Kenne Bell kit. Outstanding power, throttle response, and awesome looks.

This is the way to go guys!

Shoot me a PM or call and ask for Tim for assistance in making your dream a reality.

There is no need to install a Procharger or Vortech for comparison. They're not even in the same league as a twin screw. You don't end up with 400+ ft/lbs of torque at 2000 RPM with a Procharger unless it is pulleyed to make an insane amount of boost at redline.

Yah know honestly I was hoping for a comparison, not just a "trust me, the one I sell is better, case closed" kind of response. I have my choices narrowed down to a twin screw (Keene Belle or Techno most likely) or the Procharger. I'd like to compare the dyno charts side by side, and was hoping you had that info. Thanks anyway.

I have a Vortech Supercharged 08 Challenger SRT8 coming in next Thursday for a dyno tune.

We are installing the 8psi pulley so you will have a good comparrison to see. The only thing that throws it off some is that the Vortech car has headers and a catback, while the Kenne Bell cars had stock exhaust.

We "detune" the K.B. cars from what they could make, and we "let" them leave at around 515-520whp.

The K.B. will make much more torque and HP down low and midrange. Max numbers will be about the same.

I love the Techco unit, and we sold tons of them. Techco is on a major vacation for the next few months so I would expect any real support from them.

We sell many different brands of superchargers so if your interested in one not mentioned, please call or pm me and I will get it for you.

Thanks,

Tim C

'Preciate that, you'll get a call when I'm ready for sure.

In the mean time I'd love to be able to compare the dyno charts side by side, RPM to RPM, for as you mention, it's not all about peak HP and TQ. It's more about the total area under the curve, and where the power comes on.
