Default Turbo project AWD truck

Special ordered a 2014 RCSB 4x4, 5.3L, 3.42gears
4700lbs of AWD turbo V8 *** kicking tq.
The intention is to turbocharge the **** out of it and find some breaking points.


------UPDATE Oct.4-----
Got the truck about a week ago and baseline dyno'd it today. Did 310whp 335tq. Going to run it at the track next weekend. I'm guessing it will run 14.8ish

Had to special order it to get that combo. They have only produced the crew cabs so far. Single cabs are rarely 4x4 with a V8. Usually seem to be WT's with V6.

I think so since he posted in the 2014+ section.

If this goes through it will definitely be one to watch.

all single cab trucks in the UAE are 4x4 the 2wd trucks are extremely rare lol, im sure it applies for the 2014+ too

4700lbs i think thats about 100-150lbs lighter than the current 4x4 RCSB

Awesome!
