Happy to tune for meth. Meth is not really compatible with supercharging -- all of the systems I know about are not rated for liquid or a mix going through the rotors or pump. (someone correct me if one is rated for that)
Back to the question. The Scat Pack 6.4L HEMI engine configuration is virtually identical to the SRT8 setup, that's what makes it such a good deal. So you should check to be sure, but expect most SRT8 setups to work. We are already installing the Arrington S/C and Whipples on them.
Thanks Tim. I'm want to see what Kenne Bell comes out with for the 392 Hemi cars. I have one of their Mammoths on my SVT Cobra and it's worked nicely. If you need a test car to setup, I'm your Huckleberry...

The option there is a centrifugal blower that sprays the meth after the boosted air. The meth spray never goes through the blower.
I'm just curious Tim, have you ever seen any rotors on any Roots or Twin Screws eaten up by the meth? I ask because you've seen Alot more blowers than I have.
If you're adding the meth to keep IAT's down, then on a TVS or a Maggie, you could always fit an RDS phenolic spacer under the blower. It's been shown to help control heat soak from the blower. Just an option.

Most people don't try putting the meth spray before the blower, so I haven't seen any personally. I asked around and one of our guys did some experiments a while back and saw some degredation of the coating on the TVS rotors. So I can't say doing that is an automatic "destroy your blower or engine" move, but I am unlikely to try it any time soon.
Spacer under the blower could work fine -- will need a custom tune likely and watch out for hood clearance. There isn't much room to work with a Magnuson or Whipple blower on top.
Diablo and HP Tuners both can tune the 15's -- we tend to use the Diablo because the Trinity is a very good tool for working with customers after delivery.

I spoke to a Magnason tech about 3 yrs ago about using meth. He advised me Magnason will void the warranty on any of their superchargers that were found to have used meth for the same reason: it eats the seals on TVS type superchargers. He also said that one of the superchargers typically last till about 70K before needing an oil change in it; and that is also severely degraded by using meth. Basically, I was strongly discouraged from using a meth system with a Magnason SC.

The Magnuson (and the Arrington-improved version) are Roots-type superchargers, not screw. They contain the Eaton TVS 2300 (2.3L displacement) rotor pack, the same technology used in OEM applications for the Audi A7, the Jaguar, Corvette Z06 and the Camaro ZL1 only larger.
I wouldn't put meth through any of the TVS or Screw type S/Cs. Maybe insert after...
Yeah the rotors in the Maggie's have the same number of flutes on the male and female, so the air isn't really compressed like in a Whipple. I'd lo be to see the rotors in a whipple... To compare to the rotors I make for air compressors and refrigeration.

Several posts have requested estimates of what a supercharger will do for a 392 Scat Pack from stock.
I don't like guessing, so here is an actual car with actual dyno results. Car is confirmed bone-stock. Supercharger added.
These cars tend to baseline at 425 RWHP, so that is about a 115HP...
I am in the process of a build on my 2015 Scat Pack Challenger and we are running into some issues with 'limp mode'.. I have a lot of custom parts and 2nd hand parts from other builds.. The gentlemen that answered my calls this morning was pleasant and helpful.. He answered all of my questions...
Hi Tim,
Thought I would ask these questions here as the answers may be of help to others.
I have a 2014 R/T Classic I have owned since new (Imported it to New-Zealand)
The car has some mods I have done as per my sig.
The car currently has approx 10,000 miles on it.
The plan always...
Thought you guys might get a kick out of this one.
The 392 (6.4L) SRT came out in 2011. As part of the "new" model promotion for the engine, this one-of-one Penske edition was produced and one of our customers got it. Then he immediately upgraded it with a supercharger.
And then after a few...
Hey @[email protected],
I've talked to you here several times earlier in the year with lots of questions on my supercharger purchase. I ended up buying it from you guys and went with the 6psi Magnuson early last month (April)
I quickly realized I wanted more boost so I decided to go forged and get...
