Default RE: Motor Trend rates Challenger SRT over Shelby GT

I understand the arguement on both sdes. Small displacement FI and large displacement NA. But at least Dodge has put the R&D into the bigger engines. I just read what they did with the 5.7 and the improvements were quite extensive. From the intake to the free flowing heads. VVT and more agressive cam. Dodge could simply and I reinerate simply put a supercharger on it and made the easy horsepower. So if you are a Ford guy, sorry but that the easy way out. They need to put some time and effort into it. Leave the FI for the aftermarket. You won't change my mind about it, path of least resistance for Ford. I love superchargers don't get me wrong. Turbos are awsome and I love the performance. But it should be left up to the aftermarket and thats just my take on it. Lazy engineers at Ford... nuff said.
