[QUOTE="FordTechOne, post: 1554237, member: 35543"] Chrysler made a poor choice and chose IHI - a Japanese company - to supply the Superchargers for the 6.2/Hellcat engines. They've had significant issues with bearings failing with low mileage. Eaton is the industry standard; I'm guessing they were trying to save cost. The GT500, along with all previous S/C Ford engines, have used Eaton. Same with GM. This scenario is similar to when Ford contracted Yazaki (again, Japanese) to supply the BJBs on 2010-2014 F-150s which experienced the fuse melting issue. Don't get me started on Takata, which was majority owned/controlled by Honda and used unstable ammonium nitrate - despite warning from other manufacturers including AutoLiv - to increase global profits, including those from American companies and subsequent consumers. Companies like that have zero ethics, and claim immunity/bankruptcy when the shit hits the fan. [/QUOTE]
