im pretty big in the nitrous on these cars and havent done much research on the turbo or even s/c systems for these cars...but how is the tuning for these systems,is it as easy to dial in as the bottle cars or is there still some catching up to do in that department?

not as easy as nitrous... Nitrous on a Hemi is a "GOOD" N/A tune with touch ups on spray.
Turbo is: encourage a PCM that doesn't know boost, to see boost, and react to it.
Its a similar computer to an SRT4 computer (if not the same, hardware wise..)... might be able to get some neat-ness outta that....

Okay, now I know what's up with it.
The vehicle was a very early prototype unit (almost 3 years ago) put together for an advertising venture. It was running the Unichip tuning that everyone abandoned, and when it was built, they would not opt for water/meth injection, so it had high EGT's.
I did eventually upgrade it to Water/Meth injection and new style oil scavenge pump, but the corporate owner would not opt for upgraded tuning once it was available. It also had some kind of issue with the traction control switch not working because of a custom audio/video system install.
An early prototype design, and apprently sold to a new owner and hopefully it's being reworked to update it.
