The aftermarket is growing faster than you guys think for the hemi, so watch out.......There is the STS turbo, the GSM-Paxton supercharger, all sort of headers and exhaust systems, programmers, piggy back computer systems that can control timming, fuel and all, so you guys watch out, it'll only get better.

Yes there is a aftermarket but....

The Paxton Supercharged Hemi is making 370 rwhp
BTW 5.3 Procharged trucks make around 360 rwhp with the FMU and with a tune probley 20rwhp more.

I think that the STS Hemi trucks are not as making as much HP and the Paxton supercharged ones. The Kenne Bell would be awesome, but I think people would have some serious traction problems in everyday driving. The hemi also makes some impressive TQ numbers so I couldnt imagine the traction probelms associated with the Kenne Bell. Also I dont think they will make as much peak power than the Paxton, unless the Kenne Bell is intercooled.

Back to the commercials, the thing I dont like about the commercials is they center the commercials around the motor like its the important thing in the truck or Jeep. I would rather see more about interior, crash testing, dependability. We all have seen the commercials in the past 3 years and everyone knows that they have 345hp motor, I just think they are running the Hemi name in the ground.
