on an all stock hemi how much boost could you safely run? I am paying for the lifetime powertrain warranty which will replace my engine if it were to blow up. If it were to blow up with a supercharger on it, couldnt i just remove the supercharger and put it back to stock then have it towed into the dealer? Would they still be able to prove it was on there? What happens to the trans and driveline after so long with the supercharger on there? Are there any irreversible installation pieces?

Yeah, try to make Dodge pay for something you screwed up. That's the spirit of the warranty Then the rest of us get to pay for it in the form of higher vehicle prices.

How about accepting personal responsibility? When you play, ya gotta pay. If you've got the bucks for the blower & install you should have the bucks to replace the engine if you screw it up.

That's what sucks, most everything is a good month to month buy, except for the manifold, that one just hurts.

First decent performance project I've seen on a Ram. This is actually exciting.
