Wondered the same thing. Maybe faster ignition fire? More thorough burn from the extra juice? $200 I would try them but for that $300 mark... little steep. Wonder if they also have a light turn to fully take advantage of just those coil packs and maybe an octane boost. We do have E85 compatible engines and I've heard folk lore LOL about pure E85 tunes that had larger HP gains.Saw that too clay282, wondered how a coil pack can get that much extra.
Realize old thread but look into Ripp Superchargers the one for the charger puts it almost on the same level for a SRT8. I know they have one designed for the Rams kit comes with everything even a tuner and tune that they have R&D. But the recommend getting it tuned further to get the full potential out of it. Buddy as one on his 13 se charger and it was keeping up with the big dogs in the club. I think there is a youtube vid of a ripps 3.6 vs a hemi and it smoked the hemi.
Test drive a 2020 model and see if there is a difference,I seriously doubt it as they would be advertising that increase in torque.Have ya'll heard anything about the lower intake swap to the 2019 - 2020 3.6 models? I stumbled on some posts about it and they said it added some low end power and response. AGAIN.... it's one of those things that you have to calculate = what's the real world difference vs price?
I honestly never feel like power is an issue until I get on the interstate and the lower torque of the V6 shows itself. My company car is a 4 banger and I've driven V6's most of my life, so I'm use to a motor needing to spool up the RPM's to make power. This truck is no different. She hit's 8th gear and MPG drop because the cruise control is giving extra throttle to maintain speed, then it kicks down to 7th. 8th gear doesn't seem beneficial unless I'm on slower secondary roads with 60mph speed limits. Some extra torque on the low end would really help with this.

The 3.6 is only 220 cubic inches so a lot of torque would call for a turbo. I have the 3:55 gears and would love to have the 3:92 gears. With the two overdrive gears the 8 speed would be perfect with 3:92 gears. Those gears only come with the Rebel. I think my truck would get as good if not better mpg with lower gearing as it would go into 8th gear about 7 mph sooner.Have ya'll heard anything about the lower intake swap to the 2019 - 2020 3.6 models?

Thanks for the post, I did not know base models came with 3:92s. I think all the 3.6 should come with 3:92s.Actually, the base model work trucks come with 3:92's as well. We have just 1 in our work fleet. I only drove it once, but thought it felt faster because it was 2 wheel drive and no options. Pulled the window sticker out of the glove box, sure enough, 3:92 rear end. It was noticeable enough, I looked into changing gears. More $ than I want to spend.
Adding a supercharger is the only way to get a significant increase in power. Buy the Hemi.
