He has the PowerWagon. I forgot to mention that. That must be why he has 4:56's.
Also, the ATI procharger kit I was looing at has bigger injectors and comes with a tune specifically for that set-up.
Either way there's a custom tuning shop only 20miles away. He doesn' want to get involved with head/cams...etc
As far as exhaust, he already has JBA headers and a full catback.
The only thing that should limit the power is the valvetrain primarily in the high rev but more so the internals like the rods/pistons. I don't believe they are forged. Most cast internal engines can only handle 500hp at the crank safely. That's what I have been under the impression of.

Nice catch. Hey, atleast I'm not whining about it.....aaahahahahaha

LOL! Oh I'm far from whining about it, just thought I would return the favor. Just thought it kind of weird for someone to pick out something like that to comment on on a site like this. Like they say down here, don't get mad get even! We,my freind, are even.

Alright boys, here at the Chrysler dealership I work for we don't see many Hemi engine problems, so that means the Hemi can handle ANY amount of power you throw at it. The only thing that might blow would be the chincy *** 545RFE transmission backing that Hemi...but that is only if you don't perform the routine transmission services, but if you do you're golden. And as for the injectors and superhchargers, the supercharger kits come with high flowing fuel injectors so there's no need to worry about that. If you do add a supercharger I highly recommend redoing your exhaust, because with more air flowing in, you need to make it easier for it to flow out. Although if you want to make a hell of a lot of power, I would suggest a hot cam, CNC-machined heads, headers, then the supercharger, 800+ horsepower there boys.

Actually I'm in the shop, and the Hemi's internals are all forged steel, same stamping as the Viper's internals are, and yes if all high quality parts are added and 10 psi out of the blower you can get 800BHP!

someone a while ago had a post on how good the hemi was saying it flowed more like a $10000 nascar motor then a production motor read the story the hemi is a strong motor http://www.popularhotrodding.com/tec...iew/index.html
oh i find it just searching awhile ago a twin turbo hemi for a boat The engine will be stock other than a cam and intake and valve springs. here is the link

Aslo, I don't believe that the Hemi has an all forged motor. i'm pretty sure it just has a forged crankshaft! Hell, the z06's don't even have an all forged motor! Main reason I say this is because an all forged motor reduces base hp by atleast 20-30hp and costs twice as much to build.
