Ram wants customization to be part of the purchasing experience of its upcoming 2027 Rumble Bee. That's why it announced a new line of components developed together with Direct Connection, Mopar's high-performance division, that will allow owners to take the pickup's performance to a much higher level without resorting to outside tuners.

The strategy is aimed at those looking for more power, a more aggressive response and a differentiated image, but with the technical support of the brand.

The offer includes mechanical improvements, suspension changes, new exhaust systems and aesthetic details designed specifically for each version of the truck.
Superchargers to squeeze the HEMI engine
The most striking component of this new range is a 3.0-liter Twin-Screw supercharger that promises a significant increase in power and torque.
The package incorporates an air-to-water intercooler, a high-performance cooling pump and a calibration developed by Mopar engineers to maintain reliability even under demanding use conditions.
The kit will have a suggested price of $10,995, not including installation. Ram also reported that when assembly is performed by an ASE-certified Mopar technician, the system will retain a five-year/60,000-mile limited powertrain warranty.
More than 600 and 700 horsepower
The first trucks that can receive these improvements will be those equipped with the 5.7-liter HEMI V8 engine. Thanks to the new supercharging system, its power will exceed 600 horsepower and, in addition, it will incorporate exclusive “5.7L Supercharged” emblems and a supercharger cover finished in gray.
For the future Rumble Bee 392 and 392 Track Pack there will also be a specific development. In these models, Direct Connection adjusted the system to take advantage of the greater displacement of the 392 HEMI, which will allow it to exceed 700 horsepower.
These versions will be distinguished by the “392 Supercharged” emblems and a red cover over the mechanical assembly.
The future SRT aims to exceed 900 horsepower
The most extreme version will be the Rumble Bee SRT. As standard, it will offer 777 horsepower and 680 pound-feet of torque, enough figures to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds and complete the quarter mile in 11.6 seconds.
However, Ram developed a higher-capacity supercharger that replaces the standard 2.4-liter unit with a 3.0-liter unit. With this modification, the brand estimates that the final power will exceed 900 horsepower, a record typical of very high-performance vehicles. This preparation will be identified by an engine cover painted in the traditional Rumble Bee Yellow color.
Exhaust, suspension and a more aggressive image
The preparation is not limited to the engine. Direct Connection worked with MagnaFlow to develop cat-back exhausts made of stainless steel, with three-inch pipes, X-Pipe design and five-inch black tailpipes. Prices will be between $1,599 and $2,399, depending on the version.
There will also be a suspension kit created together with Ridetech. This system reduces the height of the truck by one inch on the front axle and three inches on the rear, incorporates monotube shock absorbers with 24 levels of adjustment and new control arms to improve dynamic behavior. Its price will be $4,590 dollars, before installation.
To complete the transformation, Ram will offer exclusive graphic packages, new emblems, specific details for the grille and tailgate, as well as Brembo calipers painted according to each version. The first components will hit the market in the fourth quarter of 2026 for the Rumble Bee with a 5.7-liter HEMI V8 engine, while improvements for the 392 and SRT versions will be available during the first half of 2027.
