I would think those mods plus a tune would net you around 50hp+ (no NOS). I think the mods alone would put you around 35, maybe 40 tops (the vararam is worth 30 alone right?).

From the dyno chart I saw, a HEMIFEVER custom tune would get you pretty close. The truck they dyno'd had several mods, but they gained like 50 horsepower at the wheels with his tune. I don't know if he has done any 2013's yet.

You have a '13 so a tuner could be tricky as they arent really fully ironed out yet and I sure as heck wouldnt be throwing Nitrous on a brand new truck if it was me.

For what its worth I just installed the Vararam and a Bullydog tuner, I already have a muffler and catch can but those dont do much power wise. With the tuner and intake I should be seeing an extra 50 at the crank (going with CLAIMED gains of 30 and 30 from each upgrade).

For constant power I would say LT headers, intake , good exhaust, and tuner (once its all worked out)

For a once in a while spontaneous power nitrous just use safety measures and you should be fine with a small shot like 50hp

Nitrous is good in it's own right but yes, something that is consistant and minimally invasive would be good.

You could do every bolt on available and you won't see 50hp at the crank. Horsepower claims do not stack on top of one another, sorry.

The Hemis can handle a baby 50 shot all day. You don't need the 50hp for cruising around unless you just want some bragging rights. A little shot is perfect for play time, just crack the bottle and have some fun.

The boltons listed above will get you close, but if you want a mod that feels like 50hp, I would go with a new tq converter.

i think so... my truck was so sluggish from a start, and with the 2800 i got from Matt, it was a whole new truck.... not sure about hp's, but for the "feel", it's night/day
