Just out of curiosity, how much do the 3rd gen rams put out to the wheel.

Before my tune, my tundra was putting out 308hp and 306tq, and thats with intake, exhaust, and headers. I never got a chance to dyno it stock. After the tuner it was up to 338hp and 369 tq. So even with a six speed, theres still a lot of drive train loss.

Being that the New rams are putting out almost 400hp, im sure it will be close to 300 to the wheel. And with 4.10's on those suckers, im sure the r/t's are gonna be something to watch out for.

It is the torque converter. The RT gets a "improved one" which is why it can hit 60 in the upper 5s.

I bet the stall on that R/T TC is something laughable, probably like 2200-2500 rpms... isn't stock around 1800 rpms?

Buy a used SRT

Pay close attention to the video... The "fastest truck we make". Not the fastest truck ever made.
