Default New Truck Questions

Hello, my name is Josh. I am new to dodge forums, and also a new dodge owner. I recently bought an '05 1500 4dr hemi, and I have some questions about power add-ons.

From my research the stock 1500 hemi puts out around 345+ HP. In the near future I want to be pushing 450-500-550 HP. I am 19 yrs old and recently back from deployment, so I'm looking to spend some of my deployment money on this truck.

So down to the point ha, I'm looking for some tips and advice for the cheapest, fastest way to getting my truck to the way I want it. Any input is highly appreciated.


Thank-You,
Josh

for 450 your looking at some motor work. bolt ons you can do cold air intake, headers, good exhaust, e-fan, programmer, cam but you will need a diablo or sct programmer.

Where in GA are you located? Im in Albany and do a lot of custom and performance work.

400 hp isnt hard but 450-500 sure is. Well, it isnt hard but it is very costly. Thats certainly super/turbo charger and NoS territory. Having a QC doesnt help. I am assuming it is a 2wd and not 4wd?

Welcome to the site BTW.
