    Video of a RIPP supercharged 3.6L out-performing a stock 5.7 liter R/T.

    I certainly hope a supercharged AWD 3.6 V6 car with an A8 would out accelerate a stock RWD 5.7 V8 car with an M6.

    RIPP are maintaining their supercharged V6 Challenger application whp #'s are beyond those of a stock SRT and scat pack, as well as providing a significant fuel mileage increase. Interesting, but there are better choices to 500hp in a 6 cyl. :cool:

    I find it interesting that even though multiple sources state the RWHP figures for the V6 Challenger with a RIPP are higher than a Scat Pack, we saw video evidence that a stock Scat Pack still walked away from the V6 car.

    Hp is one thing, torque is another. I still have not seen a supercharged V6 Challenger owner say they can beat a 6.4 hemi, but the hemi owners say the V6 owners make that claim constantly. Lol. In a 0-60 contest I’d take the supercharged V6 over the 5.7 hemi every time.
