Supercharger for my 300c 5.7

Hello i'm Remco and i'm from the Netherlands. I now got my 300c for about 3 months.

Like any other 300c (5.7) this one has got 340hp, soon the SRT-8 will arrive in the 'shops' here in Holland. I'm now looking for a supercharger and info about it. I've read that the hust supercharger develops 500hp? What are the costs and does it effects the chassis? What is the acceleration figures, 0-100 km/h / 0-60 mp/h?


If you want i can attache some pics of my cars. I'll thank you for the answers.

Greetings
s2k

By the way, this car cost $75.000 in the netherlands because of all the taxes .

$75,000; that makes our cars a bargain. I saw the same thing in Thailand in the '70's. They had a 200% import tax on American cars, so new ones were pretty rare.

Our VAT is 19% and here in Holland we have got a so called BPM, these are taxes that you pay for the car. This is a stunning 45,2% of the catalog prize but after all i'm very happy with my choice.

Here some pics:

Aren't those rims off a Magnum? I assume that export 300C's use a few different parts.

Yes, those are the same rim styles used on the US Magnum RT. But the Dodge Magnum is not sold in Europe so S2K may not be able to answer that question.

S2K, thanks for the pics of your EU 300C. I kinda like the words "Chrysler" on the lower left trunk (boot) on EU models.

Here in the Netherlands we have got companies which imports the Magnum, it is 7.000 dollar cheaper than a 300c. I don't like the nose of the dodge . These rims are the stock version here in the Netherlands. I'm satisfied with them but maybe i'm going to buy 20" Audi Rims,


Thanks for that link by the way. The SRT-Killer pack seems good, has anyone got experience with it? And i still don't know if the chassis can hold it

And it is not only drugs and ladies with yellow clogs for the ones who think that this is the image of holland. I live in the south, maybe you know Eindhoven in Noord Brabant, i live there.

You love Holland, I love Germany AUTOBAHN and Nordschleife. I topped my honda there 274 Km/h, thats like 170 mp/h if i'm not mistaken....
Every 3 months i go to Germany for my company. I really like the attitude of the average german driver. When they see you coming the are moving friendly to the right so i can pass without much braking. This is a very relaxing way to drive. Offcourse i do the same when i'm cruising at normal speeds . I wished it whould be like this in the Netherlands.

to put Audi rims on you 300C you would have to have them custom drilled to change both the bolt pattern and the center hub bore. Plus the offset are not low enough to fit a 300C.

In other words - don't get your hope set on some Audi rims. Plus, putting rims off an Audi on your 300C may get you banned from this forum by the Fashion Police. j/k
