*radz28* · 11-17-2011, 02:51 PM

Nothing but a dealer-installed TVS to my understanding.

Russell James · 11-17-2011, 02:53 PM

Twin turbo Fiat 500 is what I'm hearing.

They said at the SRT chat: "stay tuned"....when asked whats coming.

They never comment on future projects.......it frustrates some of us ....but they dont want to give their hand away like some think GM did with the ZL1

Anyone who thinks/hopes they have nothing in the works in gonna be in for a surprise......a fast surprise

the real question is, will it be fast enough?

First thing Dodge needs to do is talk with an diet engineer... then work on the rest... power is good... but adding the weight with it doesn't accomplish anything. Just my .02 cents

Maybe becasue they dont have one. I can see them talking in a room right now.
"Ummm... the ZL1 price was just announced.. damn":(
"Oh and Ford released their new 650HP GT500..." $H!T...

"What do we do???"

Haha.....you better keep hoping......

We know they are testing superchargers.....

There are also rumors of a blowerless V10 street legal that they are looking at

At least they know what to shoot for now......Thanks

Thats true... however the Camaro is still running the same HP as it started with and its competitors Ford and Dodge have made significant jumps in HP and are still struggling to out run it

toesuf94 · 11-17-2011, 03:15 PM

I cannot WAIT to see what Dodge throws into the ring...I bet it is fast and cool! The V10 one would be interesting...as would a big old V8 with a blower on it.

Again...what a time to be an American Car fan!
