I agree! My friends and I race everywhere we go, and I have only lost once and that is beacuse my friend ran a red light. It usually happens on the way to my house at 1am because everybody comes to stay at my house and we all race to get there, they started posting signs and putting cops in our neighborhood because of us. I have the fastest vehicle by far but one of my friends is getting the Silverado SS in either August or for Christmas. I have beaten SSs before but he is getting intake, headers, chip, and exhaust. I WILL NOT LOSE TO HIM! I have emailed Kenne Bell and I am just waiting for a response. It better be faster than one year, or I don't know what I'll do.

 

they'll figure it out but like i said it might be too late, cause they do have more potential than any thing else out there (cause the lightning is already blown not much room there for improvement) but i'm sure people have shyed away from the hemi b/c they can't do anything with it and i'm sure it will get worse as the speed craze keeps getting stronger!!! COME ON MOTHER MOPAR, HELP US OUT!!!!

 

I do agree. I dont know, all it will take is one company to get one out there, because as soon as one company has the kajones to get it out there. MOPAR's snivveling wont mean anything, and everyone else wont want Kenne Bell/magnacharger/whipple/procharger making all the money so they will get in on it.

I am confident that if Kenne Bell gets it out, the performance products will start rolling out. And Once it starts MOPAR has little to no control anyways, because they are out there to get money. The funny thing about it is, in the world of GAS engines, so far, Chevy is the king of horsepower because they dont just support the aftermarket, they push it, and compete with it through GP performance parts. Then, if you talk to the Diesel boys, they all say theyd rather be "cummin then strokin" I talked to North American Diesel Performance (I was originally gonna buy a 04 3/4 Tn QC Diesel, theres a member named DizzlePower on here, thats me before I changed my mind in the financing process and went to the Hemi) Anyways, the NADP guys said that the cummins engine is the most reliable, and easy to get power out of, of all the diesels available. And when you look at the big Diesel performance competitions, its almost always Dodges taking the podium and if they do get beat, its by a ford, and its marginal, and everyone below him is Dodge Dodge Dodge. The banx Diesel super truck? Dodge. The aftermarket support, and diesel dodge purchases out there ARE affected by this fact, in a positive way, you would think Dodge would see that.

i hate to say it but dodge is the is number 3 right now out of the big 3 as far as modability and as far as being fast. i would put ford in first (hate to say it) as they have the lightning for the truck and the cobra for the car and for 5K my friends cobra runs in the high 10's, and then you have the chevy/pontiac's which they had the camaro's/trans ams and the SS trucks, which the cars are just stupid fast but the SS just takes a chip to beat a hemi and we can't do anything about it!!! oh well eventually when something does come out for the hemi it's probably going to be fierce as there's so much potential!!!

 

Ive jsut got to say, ya, Chevy and Ford have alot of aftermarket support, for both diesel, and gas. Dodge has a loyal following in the diesil field also, with just as massive gains as ford and chevy, it just dodges gas jobbiees, that are taking a bit to catch up, but then you have to look at this, Chevy, and theyre 345hp SS Vortec 6000 V8, which is in every truck van or anything with a set of fenders that chevy can stuff it in, and has been around since.. 96 if im not mistakin. And Ford's 5.4L Triton, i dont follow along much with fords line up, but that motors in a few cars, and trucks, im sure. Supercharged at that in a lighting. These motors have all been around longer then the Hemi, which just this year went into the duragno, and maybe into a dak next year, and the new magnum. still.. only 2yrs old. maybe 3, i dont remeber my first "does that thing got a Hemi" commercial. I say just sit back, enjoy the ride, and wait.. someone will answer our prayers soon enuff with a system that works for us. Be it a PCM, supercherger or what ever, We can do the exhaust, headers/cats, we can do CAI. Heck even Hypertech lil programer isnt out. Thats just my thoughts.. as i sit here with very lil sleep, arguing with the doge dealership about my leaky winshield. Im happy with what i have in my '04, you '03 guys, pull your 7th wire, and have some fun.
