Putting on a supercharger

I’m thinking on putting a supercharger on my 05 manual crossfire, what else do I need other than a supercharger. Thanks!

Buy a SRT-6 instead.

Re: Putting on a supercharger

How much would a manual swap cost?

Like the man said, sell it and buy an SRT6.
The NA engine is not built for boost, compression ratio is too high and internals not strong enough.

Re: Putting on a supercharger

It’s a different engine and you need the ECU mapped to work with the supercharger.

it would be less expensive to purchase an SRT and work on refreshing it.

If you’re set on the swap, buy a damaged donor. It’s less expensive and easier than having to scour the web for all of the required parts.

or see cheapest V8 swap currently underway on the forum.

He appears to have the v8 swap dialed in for under 4K
