Yes there is already a 2007 Stage 1 kit available, and it is worth a lot more hp than you think, even though the peak hp increase looks to not be that much, the increase in the mid range from 3000 to 5500 is 25 to 30 hp higher than stock, also if you look at the late 2005 and up Stage 1 install sheet, you will see that the hp ratings are measured at the
wheels and not the
crank like the factory hp ratings, the 2003 & 2004 Stage 1 kits were measured at the
crank also, so there is still a good increase in the late stock 2005 & up 180 or 230hp at the
crank engines to the 235hp rating at the
wheels for the Mopar Stage 1 upgrade, this has been seen and proven on another forum, where several members with late 2005 and up Stage 1 cars were dyno tested at 230 to 240whp and 275 to 300ft-lbs of torque with the Mopar Stage 1 kit, and the upgraded plugs, wires and exhaust as recommended in the Stage 1 kit. I noticed a great improvement in engine and auto trans performance in my DC4 both on the street, and in my track times after adding the full Stage 1 upgrade 2.5 years ago.
