Well for $8K you can get roughly 500 rwhp if you buy the kit to run 10PSI of boost, so yes its worth the money if you have the money.
And as for the SRT killer package, the Magnum RT/300C and Charger R/T engines, exhaust systems, headers, etc... are exactly the same as far as i know, so i dont see why you couldnt just by the Magnum kit and use it on the Charger.

Since I work for a Dodge dealer, I get to spend some time behind the wheel of all Dodges great cars.

I have to say this, the 6.1 hemi is awesome, but it feels like a smaller motor than the 5.7. Mostly because you need to spin it so high to get the power. I think the 5.7 is smoother, and has much more bottom end sack. If i were to buy a Charger, I would go with an RT with the RT package and supercharge it. It has the same tranny and rear end, so I think it would handle it.

One thing that I have learned about the 6.1 is that driving it with the ESP on is slightly deceiving. Its easy to drive and pretty mild mannered with it on, turn it off and the beast comes alive ...you really have to watch the gas foot, otherwise the tires don't like to stay planted

as for the SC I'm sure the guys at GS would be able to answer if the SRT killer kit fits the charger ....honestly I don't see why it wouldn't

I have seen the site, however, I think it is deceiving. A centrifugal supercharger is dead on the bottom end and relies on RPMs in the midrange to highend to develop boost. A roots type supercharger is positive pressure all the time and develops HP right off the bat, from idle to where ever. If you see a MagnaCharger chart vs the NOVI head (Paxton) supercharger, you'll see what I mean. Whipple also has superchargers, but I just got an email from them saying the are not developing anything for the 5.7 Charger. Look close and spend your money wisely Grasshopper! Good luck!
