eBoost Air was the big news at the SRT Performance Engineering Day event, but Ram used the gathering to showcase five different builds. Three of them come from Fox Factory and feature an assortment of upgrades.
The most notable is the 1500 TRX SRT DC Concept, which highlights the aftermarket potential of the high-performance pickup. Dressed in black and white, the model sports a unique exterior with Direct Connection graphics as well as a Magnaflow exhaust.

They’re joined by AMP power side steps and auxiliary lights from Baja Designs. More notably, the truck has been equipped with a BDS leveling kit and black Method wheels wrapped in 37-inch Nitto Recon tires.
The supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine carries over with 777 hp (579 kW / 788 PS) and 680 lb-ft (921 Nm) of torque. It enables the model to accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in 3.5 seconds, before hitting a top speed of 118 mph (190 km/h).

Moving on, Fox Factory and Direct Connection showed off the 2500 DCHD. Like the aforementioned truck, it features special graphics, power side steps, and a Magnaflow exhaust. They’re joined by Method wheels wearing 37-inch BFGoodrich KO3 rubber.
The crew cab pickup rides on a Fox live valve semi-active suspension with billet aluminum radius arms as well as matching control arms. Other highlights include a lightly revised interior with special badging and leather/suede seats with Direct Connection embroidery.
Under the hood, there’s a familiar 6.4-liter Hemi V8. It produces 405 hp (302 kW / 411 PS) and 429 lb-ft (581 Nm) of torque.

Lastly, Ram brought along the 1500 DC650 that was introduced last fall. It looks awesome in person and fully embraces the street truck persona.
As a refresher, the pickup has an aggressive front splitter, a sport performance hood, and unique graphics. They’re joined by 5-inch exhaust tips and 22-inch wheels shod in street-focused rubber. The model also rides significantly lower as the front drops 2 inches (51 mm), while the rear sits 4 inches (102 mm) closer to earth.
Motivation is provided by a supercharged 5.7-liter V8 pumping out 650 hp (485 kW / 659 PS). It’s offered with either rear- or four-wheel drive.
