When I was younger I was a car detailer, and I worked at quite a few different dealerships due to moving around. I drove a first generation 351 equipped Lightning and I also drove a brand new 6 speed Burnt Orange Metallic Ram Viper. The Lightning wasn't very impressive, but it still felt like a heavy old truck. However it was still fun to drive with alot of punch, but that Ram Viper was scary and it hauled some major a$$. I didn't want the Lightning and I couldn't afford the Ram.

Those numbers on the Ford are weak for a turbo swap. I was expecting 600hp

[@07slowbalt]

The turbos swap is almost the same factory turbos with only 2mm bigger turbines.

[@mustpaike]

The Viper truck build is also disappointing. With a supercharger they could have reached between 700-800hp easy with corresponding tq figures. There is really not that much of a reason to go through all that work and burn al that money to get around 40 extra hp and 45 extra tq.

[@pittysbuilds895]

The tune they used sucks. That should’ve made way more power with a turbo swap. Those 3.5’s will make those numbers with stock turbos! They need a real tuner like Unleashed Tuning

[@crewdawg2008]

@@RJB-rt1kn You're not wrong. If it had been a Coyote F150, adding those same turbos to it would have made an even bigger impact. There's a lot more potential in the 5.0 than in the 3.5, simply by virtue of already having more displacement and 2 more cylinders. Whole lot more upside, and a whole lot better chance of beating that V10 ram. Still, it was cool just seeing the guys having some fun with what they had.

I was surprised at how slow these trucks were. 9+ second 1/8 mile time? I would hate to know I had $35,000 - $40,000 in a “muscle truck “ that couldn’t even run in the 8’s. They should have gone with 5 Star Tunning for the ecoboost. They put out 475 RWHP on the Stock Turbos. I was hoping to see the ecoboost in the 7’s.

[@slevitron1543]

I was thinking the exact same thing my '19 Ecoboost is putting down more than him with just tune and intake.

[@packetsniffers825]

Man both of these seemed pretty darn slow for the power numbers. I expected way more ET out of the F150 for sure considering the modern transmission and just how in general turbo setups do up top, and the RAM, well, they should have put that extra money into a nice 10" high stall converter, a true wasted chance to wake it up even more. N/A combo's love a good sloppy converter. As for the power, I'm guessing that was a really happy dyno. Because my crew cab 2012 Silverado with just a 5.3, cam, headers, e85 and circle d 3600 stall has gone 8.8 in the 1/8th on 20" offroad wheels with only 360whp 390lbft from a dynojet dyno. Granted, I made sure to spec my combo specifically for maximum performance with what I added, and my truck has the modern 6L80 vs the older 4L60 and had a fully custom flex tune via HPTuners on a Dyno. I spent around a 1/4 of the budget here. Both combo's could have been spec'd way better for the money spent for sure, especially on the tunes. 2021 and still doing tune in a can? Come on. Seems like all this is, is a cash grab for powernation sponsors to rip off viewers to be honest by swaying them to overpriced parts. I will say, they both looked good at least! The RAM sounded really nice for sure!

Cool idea and his was able to get a lot more power out of that EcoBoost than I thought would happen, but this would have definitely been better if he would gone 8 Cylinder and then stole a page out of the SRT playbook by adding drivetrain mods to make the Ford into a GT or Cobra Mustang Truck.
