Construction & Design:

The Vortech Supercharger Kit is engineered with precision and durability in mind. The V-3 Si supercharger features a gear-driven centrifugal design with an internal lubrication reservoir, eliminating the need for complicated oil lines and simplifying maintenance. The supercharger’s impeller and housing are developed in an SAE J1723 compliant test cell to ensure maximum efficiency and reliability under demanding conditions.

All mounting hardware is crafted from billet aluminum, providing strength and rigidity while maintaining a clean, factory-like appearance. The integrated air-to-water charge cooler system uses a closed-loop design with a dedicated pump and heat exchanger to maintain optimal intake air temperatures, enhancing performance and protecting engine components.

Performance & Sound

This supercharger kit boosts the stock 6.1L SRT8 engine output to an impressive 560 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque, delivering exhilarating acceleration and enhanced throttle response. The centrifugal supercharger design produces a smooth, progressive power curve with minimal parasitic loss, often improving fuel efficiency when driven conservatively. The system’s high-efficiency impeller and charge cooling reduce heat buildup, contributing to consistent performance and engine longevity.

Installation & Fitment:

The Vortech Supercharger Kit is a 100% bolt-on system designed for straightforward installation on 2006–2010 Chrysler 300C, Dodge Challenger, Charger, and Magnum 6.1L SRT8 models. Installation typically requires 10 to 12 hours and includes all necessary components such as belts, pulleys, and hardware. The kit is engineered to integrate seamlessly with factory systems, minimizing the need for modifications.

Vortech strongly recommends adjusting the factory spark plug gap to .032” or using a one-step colder plug to optimize ignition performance with the supercharger system.
