or super-charge a 5.7 like SALEEN and see somewhere over 500hp. the choices are endless don't lose your imagination. All the COBRA has is a 4.6 super-charged. So let's take a 5.7 HEMI and do the same thing. I'd say no contest really. So whatever really to an SRT. If ya'll want to talk about the 392 that another story though.

Just got a chance to catch up on this post... so. I know that you simply don't bolt a supercharger on an engine and call it done. But it just a matter of a good bottom end, good head gasket seal and proper cam and injectors. Then just a computor tune and adjust. But if you look at the engine refinements Dodge did it pales Fords efforts. And we have been Superchargeing engines a long time. Again I don't see Ford efforts other than a supercharger. Too easy. GM follows suit with the ZR1. We all have opinions and no one, better than the other this is just mine and I do see others points.
