Default Caravan and Grand Caravan SRT6!

I have received word of a supercharged 3.8L V6 ( (aparently 350hp) for grand caravan ) and a 3.2L supercharged V6 ( (330hp) caravan ) And even more kick A$$ is that the Caravan, and GC SRT6 are rwd. Now i dont kno if this is happening soon ( 2007 M.Y ) or when the C/GC get a major face lift due for 09 or 10. Thoughts?

250hp would have been great, but I think 350hp is a bit retarded. Does Dodge really need an SRT Minivan? Why not just SRT the Durango, Dakota, Stratus, and Sprinter while you’re at it Dodge.

Check this out. Back in 2002.

APC Dodge Grand Caravan Extreme

The APC Dodge Grand Caravan Extreme is a Viper-inspired minivan that combines the performance of a 3.8-liter Vortech supercharged engine with the cargo carrying capability of the original minivan. The APC Minivan Extreme features Viper Red paint with silver Viper-style racing stripes from front to back, vented and louvered hood with functional ram air intake, Viper-style splitter on the lower front fascia and Viper seats on the custom trimmed interior. A profile view highlights unique 19-inch RO-JA wheels and performance tires, PTP dual side exit stainless exhaust and lowered height due to reduced springs and side skirts with integrated side exit exhaust.

I think it may be a great idea. I know it's odd, but then again, Dodge is always the first to come out with these kinds of things! haha. Dodge was the first to build a minivan, now they can build a high performance minivan! Start a new high performance minivan craze!

Kinds reminds ya back in teh 70's and 80's when they gave those short wheelbase vans a sports appearance and the engines were easily upgradable in performance.

I have seen alot of the import minivans are beefing up their V6's. Like Nissan Quest's 3.5 engine offering 245 HP. I drove one from hertz and am impressed with the performance of that minivan.
