Beefing up the new hemi cars is a lot less complicated than most people think.

The Dodge Charger, Magnum, Challenger and the Chrysler 300 and 300C are all able to be upgraded easily and are capable of achieving significant power gains. The first power adder that we are going to focus on today is the new Diablosport Trinity tuner.

The Diablosport Trinity charger, magnum, challenger & 300C tuner has built in programs that will add anywhere from 15-40 horsepower. From the seat of your pants feel, that's pretty noticeable. The Diablosport Trinity is a touch screen monitor that mounts to the windshield for easy viewing. It has the ability to hold multiple tunes, including custom tunes. It will also read and clear trouble codes, will record 0-60, 0-100, 1/8 mile, and 1/4 mile times. It has a built in drag tree to test your response times. It is also a digital gauge, allowing the end user to display up to 4 engine parameters on the screen at the same time. For someone who is into beefing up their hemi car, this is a lot of important information.

The second power adder that we will talk about today is Cold air intakes in general. One of the most important parts of the "build your beast" equation is getting air into the engine. Most cars come nowadays with fairly free flowing air intake systems. The aftermarket always takes what the car manufacturers come up with and tweak them to get the most out of them though. Most cold air intakes, also referred to as CAI's will boost the hemi cars power by about another 15-20 horse power. Install time on your typical cold air intake will be about 25 to 30 minutes. More air helps burn a higher percentage of the fuel, so not only can one expect to gain some significant power, but the fuel economy is also increase by about 1 to 2 miles per gallon, and we sometimes get a rare 3 mpg gain.

whether you're looking to beef up one of the 2.7L or 3.5L V6 cars, or the hemis with the 5.7L V8 or the 6.1L V8, there are lots of options out there to begin to build a beast from whatever starting point we might find ourselves at. One of the best things about adding some aftermarket performance parts is that after having had a new car for a while, you get used to it, and it doesn't feel new anymore. With some performance parts added to the car, every time you drive out of your drive way it will feel like you're driving of the car lot with a new car because they drive that much better.
