Default Turbo 09 Challenger SE?

I just purchased a 2009 Dodge Challenger SE Titanium Grey... Love It! But...the 250hp 3.5L V6 needs a Boost. Maybe a Single Turbo with 7psi of boost. Maybe 100-125hp gain? So the Internals don't have to be upgraded ...maybe just new tougher Valve Springs and Exhaust Valves and Head Gasket (And ECU tweak). Does anyone know if the Dodge Charger SE V6 3.5L had a Turbo Kit made available out there?

Currently looking into the math to select the right setup up for my desired application (Daily driver, good low end torque, good throttle response with a RWHP over 330HP). A couple grand at least. This placement of spool looks good though.... Name:  ChargerSETurboManifold1.jpg

You may need to do something to help the transmission as well. The most power Chrysler has ever put in the 42LE/RLE from the factory is 255hp & 258ft-lbs of torque in the 300M Special.

Let us know how it goes.
