The RT should’ve always stayed the top trim on Chargers and Challengers. The RT badge has heritage and weight behind it. Its pedigree.

RT used to mean something but it became the pedestrian car in V6 or V8 narrow body form. The rental car trim. Even for the trucks mines an SLT Plus, so its missing leather seats and wheel and two speakers from a 90s early 00s Laramie. Now Laramie is a tick above mid level. Even worse with RAM adding Tungsten now 😂 it’s basically just about the appointments and not the heritage.

As far as the 10lbs of boost and borrowed time, I've been driving since 2008 with my 2006 dodge magnum 5.7 procharged. Dropped 2 pully sizes in 2010. Running 9-10 psi boost with no issues until 2022. Lost a small piece of piston and it flatten the spark plug. Put new plug in and runns good no oil,no smoke for over 2 years now. I hope i didn't just jinx myself. 😂

@@scarrevan6311A supercharger is a belt driven "air pump" of 2 or 3 different configurations, all are referred to as blowers then there are turbochargers that are exhaust flow driven. The superchargers are instant punch when you hit the gas cause the belt is always turning BUT it can take 100 HP to turn the belt and the turbocharger needs to "spool up" so there is a small lag as power builds but doesn't take HP to run. I have had 4 or 5 turbo cars and if balanced right (size of turbo to cubic inch engine) there is very little noticeabl lag.

Amazing work!👍

Ive seen quite a few do it here in The panhandle of Florida. The stock 5.7 pistons do not like crazy amounts of boost. Out of the 3 I've personally seen/helped on 2 were on around 8-10 psi and ran at the 430-440 whp on 93. The other was a max effort on 12-14 psi made 475whp before detonation took out the piston. Now its got a forge bottom end running a little over 500whp.

Great content as always

Great video! I've never thought about having a supercharger on my Rt Challenger, after seeing this video I am looking at a pro charger setup! I'd really like to do a turbo overall because of not wanting belt driven performance.

What a lot of people don’t realize and Dodge won’t ever advertise this, but talking to a bunch of different engineers. They say that the 57 is Dodgers corporate engine and it can take any modification that you pretty much due to it one of the reasons why you can run so much pounds of boost on it is because the walls of the 57 are a lot thicker than the other hem. Therefore gap in the piston rings and put a blower on there. You can actually get 600 to 750 HP

wow that is a beautiful car

Cool car. Be interesting to see how it holds up.

Wowwww that car is amazing 🔥🔥🔥Good Work Man That R/T is definitely a sleeper u can tell 💪🏼😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

Interesting. I always wondered if you could do that. Cool.

Awesome that it works. If he is fairly easy on it and doesn't do back to back to back runs at the strip it should be fine. Just don't do long hard pulls with that much boost without gaping the rings. It is easy but overlooked because it is time consuming and once the motor is apart many figure that they might as well throw internals at it. Gapping the rings will cost nothing with some restraint avoiding buying beefed up parts.

First ❤ nice video racer

Good job!

I so want to get some Eagle heads, a Hellcat blower, and put them on the 5.7 in my regular cab 2005 Daytona edition RAM 1500 truck. I just put a new rebuild engine in it back in April of 2023. It's fully broke-in now, and I would love to modify it.

That sounds good. I been thinking of putting one on my Scat Pack.

I had a twin turbo 16' SXT Challenger it was pretty sick i miss it. made 520crank and around 478whp @20psi

I've heard this was possible, but have not seen it done until now. I've heard the 392 intake is a good option too, although it doesn't have a blower.

I on so someone who did it years ago to a Chrysler 300 and it’s still running good
