Mopar is offering Direct Connection supercharger packages for the 2027 Ram Rumble Bee, compatible with 5.7L, 6.4L, and 6.2L Hellcat V8 engines. The Rumble Bee is a short-wheelbase sport truck.
The supercharger packages are designed to increase engine output. The 5.7L Hemi V8 package is expected to increase horsepower from 395 hp to over 600 hp. The 6.4L Hemi V8 package is expected to increase power from 470 hp to over 700 hp, and the 6.2L Hellcat V8 package in the Rumble Bee SRT targets over 900 hp, up from 777 hp.
Target horsepower for the Rumble Bee SRT with the 6.2L Hellcat V8 upgrade.
The 6.2L Hellcat V8 powers the Rumble Bee SRT, which in stock form reaches 60 mph in 3.4 seconds and completes the quarter mile in 11.6 seconds. The 6.4-liter Hemi V8 powers the Rumble Bee 392, and the 392 Track Pack is eligible for the 6.4L supercharger upgrade.
Installation and Warranty
The Mopar Direct Connection supercharger packages do not void the factory five-year / 60,000-mile powertrain warranty, provided they are installed by a Mopar-certified or ASE-certified technician.
The 5.7L Hemi kit costs $10,995 before installation and includes '5.7L Supercharged' badges and a gray supercharger cover. The 6.4L Hemi kit includes '392 Supercharged' badges and a red supercharger cover. The 6.2L Hellcat V8 kit includes a yellow supercharger cover and matching graphics. Mopar Direct Connection also offers color-coded graphics packages for the Rumble Bee (gray), Rumble Bee 392 (red), and Rumble Bee SRT (yellow) to match the covers.
Performance and Accessories
A Ridetech suspension kit is available, which lowers the Rumble Bee by 1 inch in the front and 3 inches in the rear. The kit includes 24-way adjustable damping, monotube shocks, and high-tensile steel springs, and comes with a three-year / 36,000-mile limited warranty.
Pricing for the Ridetech suspension kit varies by source, with S1 reporting $4,950 and S2 reporting $4,590.
Magnaflow cat-back exhaust system pricing shows discrepancies between sources. For the 5.7L model, S1 reports $1,299 while S2 reports $1,599. For the 392 and SRT models, S1 lists the cost at $2,999, whereas S2 lists prices of $2,299 for the 392 and $2,399 for the SRT.
Availability
Availability timelines for the packages differ between reports. One source states that 5.7L packages will arrive in late 2024, followed by 392 and SRT models in early 2027; another source claims all parts will launch in Q4 2024 for the Rumble Bee and the first half of 2027 for the 392 and SRT.
While Direct Connection offers a grille badge as a conceptual design feature for the Rumble Bee, it is not a production item.
