I own a 2015 Ram 1500 hemi. Great truck. Always wondered what drive train loss there would be at the wheel, given the 395HP number is at the crank. I was a little shocked to see 90HP loss at the wheel, though. I guessed maybe half that. I'd love to do this conversion to my truck, but the trouble is finding professionals near me who actually know what they're doing to do the work properly. The 126HP gain at the wheel was impressive. I'm guessing this voids the heck out of the warranty, but I'm past mine anyway. Looking forward to seeing more about how this truck turned out, and perhaps learning how much it cost to do the job.

@rotor135 жыл бұрын
It runs really low boost, even with the bigger pulley they used and the blower itself is actually quite small. At best they're running 9psi. out of the box IIRC its like 5-6psi. If you're expecting the 200+hp gain that Mustangs and Camaro's are putting out (plus costs $2k+ or more), you're mistaken as these kits run higher boost and the blowers themselves have higher airflow rates. $6k for a blower kit that is this easy to install, in a gas truck that is going to be used for hauling, is a damn good deal. I wish the $10k I paid for my 2.8L Kenne Bell kit for my S500 was cheaper, but the near 800whp its putting down more than makes up for the cost.

There are no instances in which a roots blower will be better than a properly tuned turbo setup. Turbos make more power, are way more efficient, are cheaper, cause way less wear and tear on the engine and are easier to work on. A 500whp supercharged engine would make 650-700whp on the same intake pressure if it were turbocharged. It would also do less(or none at all) damage to the main bearings and accessory drive pulleys. Blowers don't make sense on anything but NHRA top fuel engines anymore. They are out dated and have long been passed over for turbos.

It was raised a little bit (may lift it a little soon) it has exhausts, K&N air filter, power programmer kit. It’ll make a little over 400hp but even though it’ll make probably 415hp it feels MORE than that. That K&N air filter (it has a larger one) it’ll make it aggressive with the power. I give it just about half throttle and its already going 40mph. Awesome motor but they love fuel. They guzzle. Yep. Mine taking 93 octane all the time... well I’m lucky my local gas station around the corner from my home has good prices. I’ll never let the truck go more under a little under than half a tank. It’ll be 50$ each time I fill it which is... decent. I filled it up at MANY other gas stations of course. Most amount of money I put into fuel for that mofo is 70$... that was just about on E... the gas station down the road from my place is a Citgo by the way. I hate going to Mobil with the truck it’s more expensive. I have added just the right amount of power To my 03 hemi. So damn good! Truck kicks ass.

He also forgot to mention why turbochargers are MUCH more popular than roots blowers: 1) They are much lighter 2) They are easier to intercool 3) they use virtually "free" exhaust heat to run instead of parasitic drag on the engine 4) turbochargers have adjustable boost so that the boost can be reduced at high RPMs because most engines can handle WAY more power at 3K rpm than they can at 6K rpm so while 15PSI of boost may be safe at midrange only 10PSI of boost may be safe at redline before you start breaking internal components and turbochargers allow that with a simple OBD2 tune.
@BoopSnoot4 жыл бұрын
Just to say I'm not hating on roots blowers though, and the reason they are typically used by OEMs over turbos is when its a V-engine (two cylinder banks means usually two turbos are needed instead of one like on a inline four or six) and when that V-engine was originally meant to be naturally aspirated in an engine bay designed to fit that. With just a new hood, a single roots is easier to package and install on that V-engine. But most engines, even V-engines, that were designed from the ground up to be boosted will be turbocharged like the ecoboost.

Are these the truck 5.7L that flattened camshafts because the lifters fail, even at lower mileage.

The ram motors are fine it's the transmissions that need help they up shift and down shift all day when pulling a big load.

Not a fan of superchargers period. Cams, long tube headers, cold air intake, sport tuner, done. Good enough, but I’m a simple man.

Why didn't you upgrade the air intake? You did spark and exhaust, but left the air intake with basically stock just a new filter

Decent channel with honest results by using a Dyno... the costs, especially the cost per horsepower would be nice to know. Interesting is that the 390HP rating for the push rod 5.7 is obviously at the crank and not SAE... which this dyno test showed to be 305HP.
@SGTJDerek2 жыл бұрын
If you pulled it and stuck it on a Dyno, you might get closer to that 390 rating. Even at the height of the Muscle Wars you never got the to the tires ratings, and even then they published Gross HP. No accessories. I want the numbers at the ground. Installed with everything hooked up and turned on.
