"The supercharger was provided by IHI, which also sells superchargers to AMG (higher-performance Mercedes). They worked with Chrysler to develop the specifications and design of the supercharger. Turbochargers were considered but the supercharger provides better “instant-on” torque.
The 2,380cc/rev blower has integral charge coolers (sometimes incorrectly called “intercoolers”) and an integrated electronic bypass valve to regulate boost pressure, up to 80 kPa (11.6 psi). Its twin-screw rotors are specially coated with a proprietary formula of polyimide and other resins; nanometer-sized, wear-resistant particles; and solid lubricants, such as PTFE (Teflon). The coating accommodates tighter tolerances, cutting air leakage for higher efficiency.
The new supercharger, sealed for life with synthetic oil, has a drive ratio of 2.36:1 and a maximum speed of 14,600 rpm. The one-way clutch de-coupler improves refinement without detracting from the engine noise. The supercharger gulps air through an Air Catcher inlet port, which replaces the driver’s-side inboard marker light and connects to a twin-inlet, eight-liter air box; the 92 mm throttle body is the largest ever used in a Chrysler Group vehicle."

So roughly the same as the gt500 from ford, interesting. Are there a lot of options you can add to these things when I ordered my gt500 there really wasn't a long list of extras to add.
Not at this time - manual (Tremec TR 6060- OK but a little agricultural as you know) or 8 sp rev-matching, paddle shift auto, plenty 'o' colors (retro Mopar stuff) and 4 interior options. Everything else comes with. Closer to delivery I think there could be some tire options, other than PZero.Gassing Station | Yank Motors | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
