Overview
The VT kit is a complete forced-induction package for the 3.6L Pentastar V6, built around a twin-screw head unit and a mid-mounted water-to-air intercooler. It runs up to 7 PSI of boost on the standard pulley on pump gas and mounts to factory locations, so the engine bay stays serviceable and the car stays reliable.

Shipping & frequently asked questions
Do I need to modify the hood?
No. The kit is designed to clear the factory hood on all supported Challenger models — the head unit sits low enough that no bulge, scoop or spacer is needed.
What warranty is included?
24-month warranty on all components in the kit, covering manufacturing and material defects from the date of purchase.
Can I install a VT Supercharger kit myself?
Experienced home mechanics do it. The kit is a bolt-on using factory mounting points and standard hand tools, but the ECU calibration has to be done professionally, so most owners book an approved installer.
Do I need additional modifications for a VT Supercharger kit?
Most kits are complete bolt-on solutions. However, we recommend high-flow fuel injectors, upgraded spark plugs, and a proper ECU tune for optimal performance and safety.
How much horsepower and torque gain can I expect?
Typical measured gains are 40–60% more horsepower and 30–50% more torque at up to 7 PSI on the standard pulley, depending on fuel quality, calibration and the condition of the engine. Our demo car went from 190 WHP / 178 TQ to 272 WHP / 255 TQ.
What is a supercharger and how does it work?
A supercharger is a belt-driven air compressor. It forces more air into the engine than it can draw on its own, so more fuel can be burned per cycle — which is what produces the extra power, immediately and across the rev range.
What is an ECU tune, and why is it needed when installing a supercharger?
The ECU controls fuelling and ignition timing. Once the engine is under boost, those maps have to be recalibrated to keep the air-fuel ratio and timing safe. Running boost on a stock tune risks the engine.
