Default 5.7 car vs.s truck HP specs

From what I've read, the 5.7 truck hemi (2013) makes 395hp but the Charger 5.7 is rated at 375. If this is correct, can the charger pcm be reflashed to truck maps or is it a mechanical difference?

Probably due to differences in intake/exhaust manifold and exhaust systems. I doubt it would work and you would not really be able to tell a 20HP difference.

Intake manifold has variable runners, it switches internally between long and short runners.
