Where would one of these dealers be located at? I asked the dealership where I bought mine and they never heard of this. I live in south east MI. Thanks.

OK, here is the deal... local dealers with the Mopar Speedshop... are suppose to sign a contract w/ Kenne Bell to release a deal where superchargers don't void out your warranty through the dealer.

Supercharger for the hemi ? definitely. I just bought a 300c and it seems to lack that thrust factor. I'm guessing not because lack of power but because of the rear end gears. Also does anyone know if there's
a list of where Mopar speedshops are i'm in atlanta.

I think speed shops are listed, they are just dealers that do massive ordering through MOPAR and have all those parts in stock, and the mechanics are very familar with the characteristics of the vehicles. For example, you buy a short throw shifter, stage 3 suspension, and a stage 2 performance kit, etc. and have the dealer install those items. I think it's just the fact that the dealer is big enough to hold all the parts in stock or only be a couple of days out as opposed to weeks.

Your statement is making me wonder if the 300C has the same or a similar system for managing torque at low RPM's as the trucks.
A supercharger would really turn the Hemi into a monster, at 500+HP that 300C would be scarry.

I spoke by phone yesterday to Whipple. They said that their supercharger "test" on their SEMA show truck ended up with disasterous results. I got no specifics but can only assume from the difficulty that Kenne Bell is having that the fuel and computer controls are REALLY dicey. I spoke with Kenne Bell yesterday too and was assured that they are committed to production. Their release has been sliding and as of yesterday it has been slid out another 3 months. GRRRRRRRRRRR......!!!!!!!!
