If you want TRX numbers without spending TRX money, this is one of the craziest builds you can do, and it'll absolutely roast anything that dares pull up next to it. The foundation is the 2009 to 2018 Ram 1,500 with the 5.7 liter Hemi. These trucks are everywhere, reliable, and surprisingly affordable at around $12 for a clean one, which makes them the perfect sleeper platform. Start by dropping in a performance camshaft to unlock serious power and that aggressive hemi lope. Next, upgrade the intake manifold to feed the beast more tier, then bolt on a set of long tube headers and a free flowing exhaust to let it breathe properly. Finally, tie everything together with a custom tune to dial in fuel and timing. The result, around 530 horsepower, basically tier x quarter mile numbers, but without the $90,000 price tag. You're looking at a full size pickup that can tow, haul, and still gap sports cars. It's a street truck with muscle car performance. A real do it all build that sounds mean, moves hard, and turns heads everywhere it goes. So would you build this Hemi monster?
