Construction & Design:
The Vortech Supercharger Kit is engineered with precision and durability in mind. The core V-3 Si-Trim supercharger features a state-of-the-art centrifugal compressor stage and a patented oil control system that enhances longevity and performance. The billet aluminum mounting plate ensures a rigid and reliable installation, while the serpentine and cog drive pulleys provide efficient power transfer with minimal parasitic loss.
The air-to-water charge cooler system utilizes a high-capacity welded core and lightweight aluminum ducting to maintain optimal intake temperatures, even under demanding conditions. High-quality silicone couplers and stainless steel hose clamps complete the robust cooling circuit, ensuring leak-free operation and long-term reliability.
Performance & Sound
With the Vortech V-3 Si-Trim supercharger, your Dodge Charger’s 5.7L Hemi can achieve up to 775 horsepower on a stock engine when paired with proper tuning and fuel upgrades. The centrifugal design offers superior efficiency compared to roots-type blowers, generating more boost with less heat and reduced drive power. This results in improved throttle response, increased horsepower, and often better fuel economy during normal driving conditions.
The supercharger produces a distinctive, high-pitched whine that intensifies with engine speed, delivering an exhilarating auditory experience that complements the Charger’s aggressive performance character.
Installation & Fitment:
This tuner kit is designed for professional installation and requires custom calibration and supporting fuel system upgrades, including fuel injectors, fuel pump voltage boosters, MAP sensors, and ECU programming. It is compatible exclusively with 2015 through 2023 Dodge Charger models powered by the 5.7L Hemi engine.
Installation involves mounting the supercharger assembly using the included billet aluminum plate and integrating the air-to-water charge cooler system with the vehicle’s cooling circuit.
