- Mod up Dodge Durango RT 5.7L v8 Hemi or Upgrade Durango SRT 392 6.4L? Looking to upgrade your 5.7L v8 in your Durango? In this I speak with a Durango R/T owner about his quest for more HP & modifying his v8 Hemi or just buying an SRT. This Durango RT has some nice upgrades in place as is, but should he consider doing intake manifold, long tube headers & custom tune?

Hope it works out for him! Will 100% keep tabs on his Durango R/T build
R/T Life when I get some more built out I’m going to email you to set up a meet with you 2 guys. He’s like me with my R/T Durango
After working at a dealership I see 92% of the time when people treat these vehicles right they go over 100,000 miles without even changing spark plugs Or anything else.
Warranty is only there because Dodge knows nothing will happen to it in the first hundred thousand miles unless you abuse it which is why they don’t allow non-Mopar mods because they know people who do those mods treat their vehicles way worse (on average)
Having said that I beat the daylights out of my charger and spin my tires at every rice cooker or hybrid, and go rock climbing in my Jeep Wrangler. Warranty shouldn’t matter never drive something u don’t want because of low miles.
Rt life where did you purchase your 6.4 intake manifold?
where did he get the front lip and side skirts?
Give me the money and I’ll get the SRT AHOLE
Its funny when i hear the 5,7 comes " choked from the factory" with 375 hp, I remember when I was a kid I had a 79 Trans Am from the late 70s those cars were definitely choked out with 185 horse with a 6.6 403 motor, its crazy, 375 hp used to be something to really brag about now that's a starting point
As a fellow Durango R/T owner, I think he should continue the upgrades. Although part of me says just get the SRT; but he’d be starting from “scratch” (but a higher level lol)
yah I think no matter which you have - the mod bug will hit you. The difference is on the R/T's your bank account is deeper
R/T Life big facts there. I might finally install my demon eyes after watching this haha.
I would get the srt
I have to say, you always find a way to make me realize how much I’m missing out on not owning a Mopar. Been watching you for 3 years now I believe your content is one of the best.
What u waiting for man having a molar is the best to me I don’t need a super car lol I’m in love with the Durango srt hellcat
Holy crap that truck is gorgeous! My wife told me to get black, so I got silver! In a nutshell, I got the wrong color! 🤣
hahahaa - they're really nice rides! But yah, this thing looks great
Satin black wrap ;)
Your wife really wanted a black one and then R/T responds with “yeah they’re great and are really nice rides” 🤣 Good thing you didn’t let your wife have the black one-she’d never stop riding it. She’d never go back to another color- it’s kind of like turning off the pedal commander and going back stock😆
I like how he is saying that the r't will be his truck over the grand Cherokee srt
I agree from an r't drango owner here!
hahaha - this is his baby. They're nice rides
2021 Dodge Durango RT Tow & Go Package took care of the Brakes and SRT suspension…💯🔥🚀
Just ordered myself one waiting to take delivery! Destroyer grey with red interior. My wife has the 21 R/T and after a month of driving it I had to place an order on a tow and go
@@xTheDomBombShowx Enjoy My Friend…💯🔥🚀
I did the R/T build and still felt it was slow. I sold it. Bought an SRT and added the Whipple on it. I'm at 760 at the wheels and I'm done. Scary fast and reliable
Which version of the SRT did you buy? 392 or Hellcat but do see that you added a Whipple on it. If the SRT 392 did you upgrade the pistons and rods?
What Supercharger did you install?
@SantosMorin Yes fully built motor and only 6 pounds of boost.. Could push to 10 or 12 reliably.
@@natesmith777 whipple
Your R/T has come a long way congrats
Thank you, I really appreciate it
Durango R/T Plus is basically a Hellcat without the motor. Same brakes, same suspension, same exhaust, just no blower. It is all part of the "Tow n' Go" package. Worth the difference in price considering what the Brimbo upgrade alone will cost.
If payments are low and you have a vision and love the thrill of the build etc. Id mod it. Having low payments on my RT charger gives me room to have a lot of fun with this car! Loving every minute of it. About to get a cam this summer😎
100% agree - I love having the flexibility of having an RT. Money in the back means fun with my Mopar hobby :)
Just got a 20 RT Durango, looking forward to seeing this build. Thanks for the video!
Congrats on the new Hemi! They're awesome rides - will have updates down the road to see how this is coming along.
How do you like it now? Wife convinced me to trade in my challenger and our explorer for a 20 RT durrango all blacked out with the blacktop edition. I love it so far.
Holley sniper manifold! Also the eibach springs. I def reccomend the entire kit spend the money on the shocks and roll bars. EXTREMELY worth it. My magnum handles like a dream now. Im so glad i didnt just get the lowering springs
yah much better ride quality if you get the whole lowering kit.
I got a 2018 RT and love my Durango. Did headers already and intake. Waiting on tuner to get back to me to get the tune done. Can't wait to get it done tho. That Durango sounds really good. It will sound even better with the long tube headers
it's fun waking up these 5.7L hemi's - doesn't take much to get them ripping!
8:05 totally agree, I just picked up a new 2023 Dodge Durango R/T AWD, and that was the first thing I noticed that the stock brakes just don't seem to be strong enough because it's so heavy. I almost missed my turn twice in two weeks because I couldn't get the Durango slowed down enough. After owning my Durango three weeks, I've noticed it's just too heavy to be any real performance vehicle.
I have an 18rt that I’m pretty happy with the Hemifever tube. He should be happy with the difference. torque management is pretty aggressive on the factory tune so it’s much improved with a tune.
yah I think that is what he should do 1st - just unlock the PCM & load up a tune. I've heard Hemifever is a solid tuner.
Yeah I just got home, 1:30 a.m. I was out today tryin to best .93 G's left or right. Didn't happen, maybe a little warmer temps.
Nice! have some fun in that hemi brother
Gotta love these Durango R/T’s. The wife has one for her to use instead of a minivan.... nice having that sport car/muscle car feel in an SUV while getting great mpg and having AWD is best for winter. I’d just go for the supercharger if I were to mod it out.
yah the Durango R/T is a lot of fun. The hemi really does a great job. 6 or 7 lbs of boost & this thing will be in the 550+hp club
@@RTLife how much will the cost be roughly thinking of doing this to my 14rt Durango
Wow nice r/t, trading mine for a 392 😝. There's a lot of wrong info here though. First the rams have more hp not only because of the cam but the intake manifold, it makes the biggest difference. The ram cam is not $800, its around $200 and probably won't work well with the manifold and gearing... and will make your durango sound like a pickup truck 🤮.
Also you can run the eibach springs the LL suspension, I do. Just the back is not as low as advertised because they pump themselves up. You do not need to change to srt struts you would switch to the non LL rear struts only. Not sure what he was talking about with 22" wheels.. I run them and so do a lot of ppl without issue. Oh and the back glass is super dark because its tint over factory tinted glass, not because its long.
The argument as old as the Hemi line-up. Either way I do t think he could go wrong but I’m partial to the Eagle 345. They wake up so easy with a few mods and the lower compression gives you more options
yah I think he will enjoy modding up this Hemi - should make some really nice power.
Im on the same mission as this guy! Taking ny Restricted 5.7 in my Jeep and unleashing FIERCE POWER! CAT-back, K&N CAI and Brembo brakes! Pro charger or whipple, HP Tune, is coming soon.
Mostly everyone driving sport coupes sedans and SUVs their windows including the front are tinted dark?!? I guess the cops are tired of pulling everyone over breaking balls in Connecticut.
He doesn't have to get SRT shocks. He just needs non load leveling shocks and Eibach springs. Billstien rear shocks ar $75 each.
He gonna end up putting a hellcat everything in that truck thought about building up my 5.7 when I had it but I said forget that and just got a 392 big difference less money going to get a dodge durango hemi as we speak. Great suv hellcat red-eye next year until resdesign in 2024
Awesome video, I love my Durango RT and totally get his vision of modding it
yah they're really nice rides - going to keep tabs on his build. See how it goes
1st lol, I like the all blacked out look on the Durango RT, it's a nice ride and fun driving! Reminds me why I like Black!keep well my friend!👍✌
Nice! hahaa
@@RTLife lol thanks! Bro keep well!
Brother knows his stuff with them Cams
If he only has 7 payments on the Maximum I would keep it if it's in good working condition. No point in having two gas guzzlers and use the Maximum to go back & forth from work. And when when his Durango is in the shop you will still have that third car to drive. Great video and sick looking cars!
yah that's what I decided to do with my Monte SS. Paid off & still in good shape.
I like his commitment to his Durango
I will def keep tabs on his build - should be interesting
a 2017 jeep SRT for 41k?... man those where the days...
you might able to find that now in 2022 but it will have 120k miles on it. he was prob talking one with 20k miles on it back then.
Very nice Durango! I have a 19 R/T and hearing how much all these mods cost and not getting much power from it. It kind of scares me lol. But I still love it and love the content always bro. Good luck and stay safe out there.
yah def pricey doing an N/A build - much better price per HP to get a forced air setup. I will keep tabs on this Durango - see how it plays out. Thanks man
Ya know i love modding cars as much as u do but!! Ripp makes a supercharger thats proven reliability over years for 8k installed ur gains are unreal like 200 whp its insane and he warranties his product.. seems silly to put a cam and longtubes for what 50hp gonna cost him at least 4k with labor that cam job on these motors is a lot of money for the gains u get imo.. love ya brother
Ripp makes a setup for the 5.7L? I thought it was only for the v6
R/T Life yup check it out!! Its cool asf bro...
R/T Life 423 whp all wheel drive. Up from
270 baseline thats pretty good and the torque comes on low end to nicely..
It’s not a bad idea to replace MDS lifters.
Have him hit me up. I've done a lot of what he want's to do. I'll gladly tell him what to expect, how much it will cost and the issues that arise!
Do you have instagram? I can send him a message
@@RTLife my IG is coachdebar
That's a bad ass Durango! Sounds awesome too! Did he do the Blastin Bob's resonator delete?
it's a resonator replacement - it really does sound good
I got the same truck, same color, same year and even the same tint's. Love this truck but always speeding. I got a Top Line Radar Detector and Waze always running. Knock on wood I've been save many time with it. Didn't know about the illegal tints on the back. It's a SUV though.
yah that's what I thought about the tinted windows as well. Either way, these Durangos are really nice
@@RTLife I love it because it's a all year long vehicle to have. You can have fun in any weather. Love your videos big bro 💪💯 #MoparFamily
Seems like for the price he would spend making it faster, he would be better just trading up for the srt
yah, that's why I wanted to hear his thoughts on buying an SRT. Some people just want to keep their rides & make it a project car. He will likely get a Jeep SRT 392 to sit next to this - so best of all worlds.
Almost $20k difference between R/T and SRT.
@@cecerotti that extra 20 racks no joke bruh,
@@cecerotti not to mention way more cost for insurance
Yea bruh but u ain’t thinking bout da insurance prices differences too.. in the long run the 5.7 still gone save u money even if u do spend money on mods that equal up to a SRT due to cheaper insurance.
I’m hoping to make some tasteful mods to my 20 R/T and make about 420 at the crank. I think that’ll be the sweet spot for me
I could not hear everything he said he was going to add for $4000 that would be the best bet to add power. I wish I could get a quick list of those things to do to my DDRT
Its very nice the sound is awesome he should upgrades torque converter and up grade the rear ends
He's not a drag racer - I think he just wants so more power for HWY pulls etc.
Looks agressive, i like it.Be safe rt life.😎👍
yah I like the styling he has going on this Durango. I hope you stay safe/healthy out there as well
I don't know where he's getting his info from but every dealer that I have talked to has said that any modifications you do to the internals of the engine voids the warranty.
Some dealerships are a little more relaxed with upgrades. The one he is referring to has a tendency of looking the other way with lightly modded rides or ones that use mopar product upgrades.
@@RTLife I wish I could find one like that. 😁
Yay for RT guys!!! Durango family love my RT there plenty fast!
they're a lot of fun to drive - these Hemi's are great
R/T Life they are man! I feel my Durango is way undertuned it pulls great off the line very nice good low end torque it gets to 100 in no time I’ve had it 115 easy
No one buys a RT for speed. That 5.7 is solid but it's not exciting like a 392 or Hellcat.
I laugh at hell cats😂😂😂
R/T’s have a higher potential than a 392🤣
Yeah You Must Not Know Brodie .. No One Buys It For Speed ? When That 5.7 Can Hold 750Plus Horsepower Easily .. A Smart Man Buys The RT IYKYK
Me hearing the 5.7 ram cam sounds Awsome probably as cheap as the 6.4 cam for a cheap cam mod also probably 5.7 ram heads flow better to also for torque maybe
He surprised me with that bit of info
@@RTLife and I also got a ticket 2 sundays ago 85 in a 55
The Eagle Heads are intake dominant.
One of the nicest rangos I’ve ever seen.
A simple supercharger would make this faster than a 392! I have a 2021 Durango Tow N Go (which is all SRT except the engine) I'm going to slap a Whipple 3.0 supercharger on it and will provide me 570 crank HP compared to 475HP in the 392 SRT! And the money I'm spending will still cost LESS than if I were to buy a 392 SRT.
I have the same truck lmk how it goes
Doing it for the the R/T community!!!!!
I'm looking forward to getting an upgdate on this
I just got the black R/T durango
Question for those with much research or experience done, what are the HP limits of the main parts of the Durango? Like what’s the common break point for the Trans, weakest engine parts, and the rest of drivetrain? Would love to get more HP and I know more power is nice but what else should get changed to a stronger part when you get to 450HP and beyond
6.4L intake and manifold swap and wire up the intake runners, they give great gains under the curve over 50hp to the tires.really wakes up the 5.7L down low where it is lacking. Along with a custom tune they rip
The gains are def noticeable under the curve - no doubt about it.
@@RTLife oh yes... I used msd rpm window switch for mine.. set at 2500-4500
@@RTLife sorry 2250rpm not 2500
Cool video, did mods on my '14 Chrysler 300C 5.7 hemi as well, picked up a noticeable performance increase with my '12 factory Challenger R/T exhaust(2.5" as opposed to 2.25")and a tweaked 91 octane canned tune with my Diablo i3 tuner to shut off the dreaded MDS and give it a kick in the ass. Runs great and gets same mileage running on all 8 cylinders, and gets a nice chirp on a 1-2 manual shift now.
Be cool to see if your buddy here gets into doing tweaks and mods with his Durango!
I will def get an update once he has some of these upgrade in place. Should be interesting to see what he thinks of the gains.
@@RTLife cool!
I'm conflicted between getting an R/T or SRT. Obviously R/T is cheaper but comes with good HP to start. SRT comes with everything but a lot more expensive.
I hear you - the Durango SRT is def expensive. It's nice though having that 392 under the hood
@@RTLife I know. This is coming from a guy who has a 9th gen si. So I'm looking for a big boy toy with massive power. I dont want to half ass it and not get the SRT. Although the R/T wouldn't be a bad fallback option. I would like to get one in pearlcoat blue. Whichever I could find that has it.
Same bro I just got me the 2021 RT I love it but man those SRTs are top dollar !!
It's a nice Durango but yeah I'd be upset too about those little things that you don't know about until you hear it like this from someone.
def always good to hear people that have had the ride for a while - def helps future buyers
were did your man find that front bumper for his dodge Durango
it's by "abaza carbon"
@@RTLife hey man that looks great I have a durango too where dis you the bumper lip I been looking around and I csnt find anything please help out
Wow that’s a nice Durango!!!
yah this thing looks great - I like what he's doing
Your Durango is nice too !
64 bit thanks! 🙏
Love those mods on the durango. Airborne triple nickel 555
he has a nice ride for sure - he just got a Jeep SRT to join this
I like some Dodge cars. However, it would take a lot for me to buy one. I hate FCA's business model. They deliberately make things more difficult for their customers in order to convince them to spend more money on a higher model. They deliberately choke out their lower models and here are a few examples. A Mopar owner has to pay to unlock their PCM like it is storing national secrets. The Pentastar has the exhaust manifold as part of the head so that you can't install headers and make installing a turbo impractical. The R/T has the most restictive exhaust manifold I've ever seen. The R/T engine internals are all cast and it doesn't even come out of the factory with a limited slip differential. Even my lame @ss V6 Mustang has a forged crank, forged connecting rods, stronger pistons and limited slip differential. I can also install headers and a turbo if I feel like it. There is more support for a car with an engine that Ford stopped making 3 years ago than Dodge provides for their cars. Dodge dealers seem to look for almost any excuse to void a warranty. FCA treats their customers poorly as far as I'm concerned. It would be nice to see FCA spend as much improving their cars as they do on advertising.
Def understand & agree with most of what you wrote. They can do better with the lower trims no question about it.
The part that annoys me is that what FCA is doing is deliberate and underhanded. As you can tell, it gets me annoyed.
@@hu3.789 thats because Chrysler Corporation knows its a world of high adrenaline millenials or midlife crisis adult buyers out there who WILL BUY their products no matter the cost cutting engineering. They use these over powering iron block pushrods engines (HEMIS), underperforming tires with aggressive body cladding as a marketing tool to corner the market.
Sounds like your state is as bad as mine. Hope he can build some good power. Lol he's going to want to build a stroker in the long run. 😎
yah NY is struggling right now. I think he will get it to - heads, cam, long tubes, manfold, throttlebody.
Mn is just getting started with the virus thang. That is a good start but we always want more power.😁
Sounds tuff. I like it
yah it does sound great
The cams from the ram will give you more low end not top end. Dont waste the money on a basic cam install. Go all the way!
yah I think if you're going to pay for a cam install, getting a custom grind is the way to go.
Nice Durango. Needs to make the 5.7 breathe now
Agreed - I think he will enjoy modding up that Hemi
You could get an Explorer ST. 400hp and 415 FPT. For $20 k cheaper
I have a 2020 Durango R/T that's blacked out as well
they look awesome blacked out
@@RTLife Yes they do... I constantly get complimented on it. And my interiors is a blood red. Which gets complimented on too 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
nice car
Agreed
I shouted you out in my last video an i shown my hellcat An i hope to do a video with you soon
We can def do a collaboration at some point. Would be cool showing off that Hellcat
Looking at this to get some ideas because the SRT and Hellcat only has 6 seats and i need 7 seats... don't understand why they couldn't add those into those models... I feel nerfed. the price of having a big family lol.
Could you educate me on the Ram CAM install to boost power? What tuner do you recommend? I’m currently stuck training via Military while the coronavirus is going on! But I still watch your videos for my mods! I got cherry bombs installed and x pipe, with peddle commander. I’m waiting to get home to do air intake!
Looks awesome and sounds really good but to get that thing moving it's gonna cost him $$$
yah - def going to cost some $$$
Durango looks amazing! where did you get the racing stripes? also, what was the specific RAM Cam model did you say would fit the Durango RT?
Kept throwing me off when he was referring to the load levelling suspension as a levelling kit lol. Levelling kits are usually a lift for the front
haha - I knew what he meant because most around me drop their rides.
R/T Life yea I knew what he meant, but I had a ram before this with a levelling kit. Had to take a second look to be sure he didn’t lift the front lol
Love to follow this build. Same route I wanna go with my durango. N/a build, nothing extreme but 400hp at the crank would be nice.
Another killer in this is the gearing sucks. 3.09 gears for the 5.7 models. 3.70 gearing and some bolt ons would really wake these up
I’m late to the party, but where do ya get the work done. I’m in NYC and need to overhaul my 2014 Durango.
Honestly his truck is gorgeous i wouldn't trade it out either
Live on Edge but be Safe Bro! 👊🏽
Will do & same to you - Thanks man
the from spoiler looks nice...
what did you/he end up doing since the vid?
What is the doctors note for exactly? I used to have one for migraines, but that was through my eye doctor. They told me they don't do that anymore!
The doctor note allows you to legally have tinted windows
@@RTLife Is it for a certain "condition"?
@@SJG138 my wife had eye surgery so the doctor allows her to have tinted windows & any car she drives in regularly.
Looks really nice👍😎
yah def a nice ride - he's doing a solid job
What type of headers and heads and intake are you planning on putting on I just bought one myself a 5.7 liter and RT Hemi Dodge Durango 2015 I interested what products you were planning on using I want to do the same mods
I’m the first like keep the videos coming
Nice! Thank you - I appreciate it
Nice Durango rt, what kind of tires and the size on that Durango,,and im in new york where did he go to get the pen stripes down the middle.
That's sick! Where did he get the front lower fender so I can get it for my Durango? I live in Arizona.
I will ask - def makes the front look more aggressive.
@@RTLife I will follow you doing videos on his built
@@RTLife Yes I’m also looking for that chin spoiler and what those side skirts are if you could find out that would be great
Great vid 💪🏽
Mr rt life , I have a question not related to this vid , Im actually about to get longtube headers with catledd mids and I have two options because of the cost :
Which is better JBA or BBK ? Regarding fitment and gains ?
I'm sorry I don't have any experience with either - that being said the gains should be very similar. Quality I believe are on similar levels (welds, fitment, etc)
Both will do the same exact thing as far as flow however BBK will sound the best out the two. Now Kooks or Pypes ( cheaper copycat of Kooks) would be the very best in overall quality and sound as good if not better than BBK brand. What can you afford is the question.
I can say on the Rams the JBA’s fo not fit as well, but you will make great gains on both.
I learned a lot from ur video thank you butting out great video. I had one question. I love ur hood on your ride. Do you think that a company makes killer 🐝 hood for a Durango RT??
They don't make the Killer bee for the Durango but they do have some solid options

Thank you - def getting crazy here in NY.
I would like to know Where he bought the front lip spoiler 😩😩😩😩 can so one tell me please is an emergency, I need to know where this guy bought his truck body kit PLEASE
I was actually considering a 5.7 durango the other day at the dealer but a bit pricy for the 6 banger and the 5.7 is 30 hp down and 2000lb heavier than my ram sport so after that i just said naw,ill pass
Just supercharge it with a few other things and 🔥
Do a review on ur neighbors red mazda 3😊 for April fools
that's a really nice ride - was speaking with the owner about it.
@@RTLife ask to do a review on it plus interview the owner on the pros and cons about the vehicle if he's down 😉
Bro , I have a 392 and a v6. The v6 will smash out a rt. No one wants to hear that but lmfao. That's why I went with the 392
I want to see the hellcat swap one I got some questions for him
This has a hellcat engine in it
ruclips.net/video/R3ucZq9rUYw/видео.html
R/T Life yea it’s short and no specifications on the build I think you would get a lot of views doing a longer interview on that one
Yah you're right - but you have to work with what you got. No one there was willing to take a moment to chat about it.
Blasting bob any drone? What exactly a the exhaust mod? Thanks!
What a beauty.
Agreed. this is a really nice looking ride
What’s the difference between modding and upgrading
Love the Durango but i couldnt give up my charger for that.
I wouldn't mind having one sitting next to my Charger
@@RTLife shit if i hit the lottery
💪💪💪
yah this is nice
What size of tires & wheels hes got set up? Those are definitely bigger
How do u get a ram cam is it safe does it fit in Durango!? Man amazing idea a lot of money tho may do a tune
looking at a 2018 durango 392 , anything you think i should pay special attention too?
Any idea where he got the side skirts from? I need those for my RT!
Do the tinted headlights affect the brightness of them noticeably at night?
Just wanna ask how you fix a service awd on durango rt. Pls let me know thanks
