is 5.7L AWD Better!?!

- Charger R/T 5.7L v8 Hemi with AWD - sounds like a great combo! Most Charger R/T 5.7 345 v8 are RWD so having AWD is something very different. If you're looking into a Hemi, make sure to check out these Charger AWD 5.7L R/T - they're fast & fun. Dodge should bring back the V8 AWD with the 6.4L 392 & 5.7L 345 Hemi engines for the Charger/Challenger/300.

if Dodge made AWD in the newer Hemi's - would you get it?
No question i would. Thats one thing i like about the old Chargers & 300s
Definitely would have me thinking of trading in my rwd scat if the next awd was a scat as well
Hell yeah!
If I lived in a snow climate, yes
I would in a heartbeat. If it's a little dusting of snow I slide. And this Maryland weather is unpredictable. Its actually snowing right now as I'm typing this
“All wheel drive plus a HEMI, that’s such a magical combination” 😏 I know.
Nice video👍
We had a Jeep SRT 392 last year - it used to plant everyones heads back with every launch. It's so much fun when you have a Hemi with AWD - you really feel that power! Thanks man
Love it in the latest edition Ram..🤙
Love having the AWD Hemi, it makes a great daily. Plenty of power to have summer and winter fun. Wish they still made them.
yah I would have a lot of fun in this. Feels great slamming on the gas & actually going
the dodge chargers the police run are awd you can go to some dealerships and order one
@@stanleyken2002 ye you can get a awd in a v6 I don’t think the v8s tho
police pursuit does offer one@@get_moneyy6612
I totally wish they'd bring back AWD in the charger. He's got a nice ride there as his first car.
Imagine Charger AWD Hellcat - that you can switch between RWD/AWD
Too many transmission problems and the PTU from the Trackhawk won't fit. They did it for the Armormax, but that's heavily modified.
Main thing I love about my awd. It doms the snow. I lowered mine to about 2.0 still takes the snow. Modified my front bumper and I’m getting so much more air then I ever want with the upgraded radiator
The Borg-Warner 44-40 has been proven to hold close to 600whp so far. I'm not sure how much more it can take. No one makes parts for it. I looked into swapping a Jeep or Durango transfer case but they both have front driveshafts on the driver's side which doesn't work with the LX platform floorboard.
A great veiw, young guy's got a summer & winter beast, like that 5.7 Awd, I Got the SRT 300 from Calgary it is mint!, It's A friggin amazing Car! Finaly found the "mint one" lol ! Be safe and a hello to the family Bud!
Yah this is a fun 1st car to have. Happy for him. Congrats on the SRT - enjoy it man!

Smart young man - taking his time to learn how to control the horse power (before the power adders).
Agreed - taking a very level headed approach with this Charger.
As the owner of a SRT Jeep I can attest the advantage of AWD IN launch mode, while others are burning rubber I’m already moving down the track.I do believe the highway patrol does have AWD chargers. Great work RT.
yah the AWD on the streets is a massive advantage - it feels great to stomp on the gas & catch real traction!
I live in IA and bought a '14 Charger R/T /w AWD and absolutely love it. The AWD in the snow is great, it makes the car more practical in my opinion. I also have a tazer that stays plugged in all the time so I can used the other features. The system will stay in RWD, AWD, or NORMAL, through restarts as long as the tazer is plugged in.
I hope your cousin can build up his car to his liking, looks like he has a good start and a well of knowledge to lean on.
What do you mean by tazer I’m looking to get one and want to know if I can make it rwd
Do you have a video on the “tazer” tuner he was talking about
Yes - I used to have it installed a while back
ua-cam.com/video/N6i5qdr3Kds/v-deo.html
I love my 2013 AWD RT especially in upstate New York around this time of year it is perfect. And I noticed AWD is off until it realizes the back tires are spinning, or if it is below a certain temperature outside the awd will stay active.
Makes for a perfect all year ride for us in the north east. Certainly a lot of fun to drive!
When, cold, raining, autostick, or ESC off it'll go into a standby AWD mode and display AWD. But the front isn't actually driven until the rear slips.
You pulled up on me this weekend on the highway
That Hellcat looked awesome man. I didn't realize you guys were filming. Let me know if you want to meet up - I'll get that beast up on the channel.
@@RTLife we were shooting some rollers, i’m pretty sure we got a couple pics of your car
My email is RTLifeMopar@gmail.com - if they're willing to share def let me know.
I hardly see AWD 5.7 here in Cali. Usually the only folks that drives them are the CHP lol wish dodge can make those GT awd 5.7.
I never see AWD V8 Chargers around me. Was surprised he was able to get one.
Why doesn't Dodge offer AWD with the R/T Challenger, I really wanted an AWD Challenger but couldn't get it with the V8.
Not sure why they never offered that. I think many people would prefer having that Hemi in AWD. Great all season ride.
Yeah they should at least offer it..
Probably cost 🏦 ...
@@RTLife It may be an issue with not being able to warranty the driveline with that kind of power but Nissan got it figured out with the GT-R.
@@maddog9659 dodge figured it out too with the trackhawk, srt jeep and durango, hellcat durango, and TRX. Its not worth it for them to make it, it would cost them more to produce than they'd make back on it
@@732Mopars Gotcha, didn't realize that..
Mine leaves all RWD R/T’s😂💯
yah they can't get out of the hole on a dig race - AWD launches like a boss!
@@RTLife definitely it always buries me in my seat
👌
Not only that but stang's and camaro ....I am new to this hemi thing as I was a crown vic Ford fan boy , but now the my foot has the other shoe🤔 or something like that. It's a good feeling. The best thing is my pursuit looks like a v6 stocker 😈
That’s a pretty good first car my first car was a Ford contour lol
hahaha - my 1st car was so slow! He did a good job grabbing this thing
@@RTLife yeah he definitely has a cop first car.
I own a 2013 Rt Max Awd Charger. Love this car. Is my daily driver and great in the snow. It launches like a missle.
yah I would have a ton of fun in that thing. The AWD is great for all year around ride. Was a lot of fun launching an R/T & actually gripping!
I didn’t know the 5.7 don’t come awd!?!? I have a 2020 Durango Rt awd
In the Charger/Challenger/300 they're all RWD 2015+. From 2007-2014 they offered the Charger 5.7L AWD
AWD makes a big difference launching - certainly a lot of fun!
🔥
@@RTLife wow I did not know that. Thanks for the info
I have a 14 RT AWD... You can set up the tazer to change from rwd to AWD just by pushing a button on steering wheel... Back and forth... As long as you have the ACC on your wheel
AWD ain't no joke!
It's so nice catching traction! AWD is so fun to drive
Did you ever find anyone with an SRT-10 Ram?
Nope - The only one I've ever seen was a meet 2 years back. He was leaving
@@RTLife Ok, I really hope you get a chance to do a video on one that’s an Awesome Truck!!!
@@RTLife I know there's a few in central NJ. If you're ever out here you should do a video on my car. Magna charged, 392 cam, FBO. My brother's also got the same exact car but in B5 with FBO and stage 3 texas speed cam.
I just got an AWD SXT Rallye and we’re supposed to be getting a lot of snow this week.
I’m excited to actually test the difference between my new charger and my old 2012 Pursuit in the snow lol
Idk why the fuck they stopped making the awd Hemi. I heard the announcement of the awd challenger and got super excited but was extremely let down when its only in a v6
it was a great combo esp for those that need it as a daily up north. certainly a lot of fun
Awd is great till you want to do a burnout...
Which is why you select RWD with the Tazer, as the young man mentioned.
yah he went out & got the tazer to he can deactivate AWD
the tazers can unlock a lot of options for you, you can disconnect the rear breaks too and have some fun while also killing tracking abs anti lock breaks and switch to rear wheel drive etc.
Yeah man..that and traction control..Off..!!🔥🔥
Hook 🪝 “N” Book...🚀
100% - it's a lot of fun
I got a 2013 Chrysler 300 5.7 hemi awd and man it’s sooooo nice 🤧
I wish they would make those now in the Charger/Challenger V8 models
We have an AWD 300C Hemi. Great car! My wife's daily driver. Of my 3 Hemi powered vehicles I could see holding on to this one till it dies as it's a great all around car for any season.
The AWD makes it perfect for anyone that has to deal with winter months - plus they're fun to launch hahaa! You don't see the AWD around much now
" never had a Honda try me again"😂😂😂
he's funny
Unless he is in the high 3s, low 4s 0-60, I gotta a hand full of Hondas that would love to pounce. Power to weight isn't fair haha. (Still Love all the cars you put on here!)
Wrong channel
@@julshall8604 right channel!
@@crxh2dvtec get outta here Hondas in the low 3 or 4s man your gonna have to get some serious vtec
Hardly. The Mexican 5.7 had tons of problems so they just stopped making them.
Nice car for 19
Agreed. I wish
I've messaged u about my awd 300c on Instagram, I'm only in Connecticut lol I ain't far
I no longer have access to my Instagram - you can message me on TicTok or RTLifeMopar@gmail.com
@@RTLife oh that makes sense now
I own a 06 magnum rt and a 06 rt awd both Diablo tuned bbk throttle body's and dutchwerks injectiors they both ripp up the pavement
Wish they had awd in the 5.7 challenger.
Don't knock the Taurus lol my wife had the SHO with 3.5 twin turbo and and that thing was a rocket on wheels.
hahaha - those SHO's are no joke. AWD with 360+hp = fun!
I personally own a Hemi AWD Charger and it's great.
first
nice!
@@RTLife love the videos man planning on getting either a hemi 300 or hemi charger soon i got a v6 chrysler 300 right now, need the upgrade
I love my 2013 R/T AWD. Great daily driver
They're a lot of fun to drive. AWD is a great option with these Hemi's
Good head on his shoulders. I am glad you re-visited this car. I was curious if he would follow thru and get the parts to make it drivable. My first car was a 1974 Duster. Paid a 1000 bucks. Was fun. The AWD is gold up here in the snow belt. I'd LOVE to have an AWD Challenger for my daily. That would be awesome.
yah he's a smart kid. Happy for him with his 1st car purchase - this thing is a lot of fun. AWD Challenger 392 or 345 would be so damn cool.
I drive a 2014 AWD R/T Myself, DEFINITELY WORTH IT
Such a fun ride! AWD makes a massive difference.
@@RTLife Especially when you throw 315s on the back, 275s in the front, and an aggressive cam
Never lost a race against a stock rwd rt absolutely love the take off and I’ve been on bald tires for a while as well
hahaha it's so much damn fun! You can launch at a much higher RPM - grips & rips
😂😂 same , I got a 300s awd with a 5.7 and can walk any stock rwd 5.7.... tires bald n all 😭😭😭
@@drakep41_yt20 The bald tire community :D they didn't tell me tires would cost 200 + for good all seasons performance tires at the dealership so here I am xD
It's too bad FCA didn't feel the same way that many Mopar fans do about the AWD Hemi Charger. What was even worse was having Pentastar V6 in the AWD Charger. The engine has little low end torque and the Charger is a heavy car at about 4400 pounds with AWD. If FCA was going to build a V6 Charger, they should have built it with a turbo V6. I own a Taurus SHO and I really like this car because it has the turbo V6. All I did was add an aftermarket tune and I run 13.1s in the quarter mile with it. If I upgraded the intercooler along with a revised tune, the car will run mid 12s. Not bad performance for only about $1,000 upgrade. Upgrade the turbos and downpipe for another for about another $7-8 K and the car will run mid 11s. The nice part is you don't lose drivability. Who know FCA might come out with an AWD Hellcat Charger?
Those SHO's are pretty sweet rides - true sleeper. I do agree, they need to get the Hemi's in AWD. most will say just get a Jeep/Durango but many of us really prefer the Chargers/Challengers.
You commented this a year ago, now we are probably getting AWD twin turbo 6 cylinder cars
@@timbrwolf1121 - You should get one. They're awesome.
I plan on getting another awd lol one day even tho they 7 years old now
The thought has crossed my mind. Would be a fun build!
@@RTLife awd 5.7 with stroker 392 kit lol with the scat pack packages 😂😂😂😂 Then it be a real 5.7 scat pack
Love my 2010 rt awd. Might have to find an 11-14 awd as a long term keeper as I like the interior better on those.
The pickings are getting slim! But. man these AWD Hemi's are a blast
How’d u get a rt awd from a 2010 model??
When you force rwd with the tazer as long as it is plugged in it stays rwd
Good to know - wasn't 100% sure how that worked.
I can second this. I force RWD on my 2014 300C JVLE AWD HEMI for drifting. It works perfect.
Same on my 2014 300C JVLE AWD HEMI as well. I also have the Force AWD function button remapped to the ACC distance button on the steering wheel. No need to scroll menus, I just hit that button whenever the cruise is off.
I drove my dad's Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Brougham until I got my first car, a 1986 Mazda 626 hatchback!
I bet that Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Brougham was pretty cool to rip around in
What's the year make and price
A C4? So the real first mid-engine Vette. This comment lights up Chevy channels
LOL
As long u maintain these awd cars. U will have it for a long time. I’ve own mine for a year or 2 and clocked 150.000 miles over all. U can do so much.
Nice! Man, you're getting your moneys worth out of that Hemi. Certainly fun to drive
🔥
Thank you
How did he manage to get one for 4 grand if you don’t mind me asking
Too bad the all wheel drive cars are too high.
You can lower them with some springs
@@RTLife I liked how the Magnum RT looked with the AWD.
My opinion here, AWD is awesome on the street and really fun to drive. It does limit the burnouts 😉 Not sure I can say the same at the drag strip 😈 Would love to get in a AWD car at the strip just to feel the difference.
yah an AWD Hemi would make for a super fun street racer. It has such a big advantage. Drag Racing - give me the RWD all day long
Force rwd and totally disable traction control/esp and any awd turns into a burnout machine.
Even more than what Mike said, a 5.7 AWD plus the Tazer not only gives a Force RWD mode. But also the line lock function, push a couple buttons on the steering wheel pump the brakes and floor it. It'll hold ONLY the front brakes while turning off the AWD to do a perfect burnout.
PS don't turn the ESC all the way off, the partial off will allow a burnout and keeps the brake lock differential so it'll spin both.
What's so crazy is I have a c4 Corvette and I currently have a '02 Dodge Stratus which is basically Mitsubishi eclipse and I was thinking about making it all wheel drive and converting it to a 5.7 Hem.
That would be so damn cool
@@RTLife thank you man I've been following your channel for a while actually I wanted to know would the all-wheel drive chargers handle the 5.7 motor or engine I should say, also I just had a couple questions on how to do the 5/7 seems to be overlooked when it comes down to everybody talking about him he's always want to 6-4 or to 6-2 or the 6-1 so if you have any kind of tricks of the trade or whatever you can hit me up.
Nothing against my V6 AWD but, if they offered the 15 or newer with a hemi AWD. No questions hemi all day!!!
The young man is wise beyond his years. 3:25 I had a cop car 440 I grew up racing snowmobile’s in the WSRF racing association when I was 15. Our sled could go 97mph in 800 feet. Back in 1976 that was a fast sled. Wow launching at 1500 RPMs that’s really good. You can get away with that in a AWD
My first car was a 1981 Honda Prelude. I got to say it was a great vehicle for $50 and when I sold it I made $200. Not too bad for 2 weeks of owning a vehicle and abusing it
$50!!! Damn man that's a low risk buy right there. There was a stretch of time in High School I wanted a 95+ Prelude - nice looking rides but slow haha
@@RTLife Low risk purchase but you should've seen this pile of rust and silver paint. With only a 2 week ownership I didn't have to register it
I have a 2013 charger rt awd they are so fun no traction issues
it's a lot of fun stepping on the gas & actually going! Normally a 60+ foot burnout happens haha
So ironic that both vehicles mentioned in the video are ones I own lmao. AWD needs to be brought back!!

My 2011 chrysler 300 5.7 is great... But the awd kicks in and out when it shouldn't. Today i plowed through 12 inches of snow and a 2 foot snowbank with mine, then when I was coming back through i got stuck at the end of my driveway in the snow I already plowed through... That shit was annoying
I’m curious a FBO awd 5.7 vs a stock 392
I finally put Long tubes on my AWD to replace my shorties for it. Now im sittin on a set of shorties and high flow mids. I was gonna throw a jay greene cam in it during my header install but going a different direction.. AGAIN xD ive got like 4k qorth of parts for this car in my garage..and being the only AWD in 1k miles? Gonna stay there😬

Crazy bro I got the same excact car when I was 19 for a lucky deal in North Carolina "hurricane damaged" but it was perfectly fine. It was the 2nd car I'd ever bought though, 2014 with 40k miles it has 97k today!
How much power can you add to a awd system
It's still available in police cars
Dodge should give the Hellcat AWD and two motors, one in the back and one in the front! With the front motor auto like the Eldorado and the back motor with a manual transaxle!
He should buy cat back from mopar
I'm going to give him my Magnaflow catback - sounds pretty good
Disable awd button an we good

They do make AWD chargers with the 5.7, you have to look on the used law enforcement market. Check your local city auctions.
Yeah I got one of the last AWD RT chargers and boy when the AWD is on I gap everyone from the start mustang owners are like WTF!!
I love my awd jeep srt8 if the trackhawk was out when I got my hellcat I would have gotten it instead so I’m probably going to swap to trackhawk drive train

I wish mine was blue
I like how you put a version that doesn’t come in Awd in the thumbnail.
Edit* After watching the video I see why you didn’t put his car in the thumbnail. I’m sure there are plenty of people in the snowy areas that wish the Awd R/T would come back.
That’s so incredibly loud shit 😭😆

I have a awd hemi pursuit 2016 . They say over 5 second 0-60 but I measured under 5.
I have a 2014 awd Chrysler 300c. I love it. I think you can take the awd fuse out to were it’s only rwd
The AWD really allows you to launch hard - def a lot of fun!
DO NOT pull the fuse. This is straight from Joe from Z Automotive in their FB group:
"Joe Zizzadoro
Pulling the fuse isn't the same as running the tazer's Force RWD mode. Pulling the fuse kills power to the AWD actuator, in which case it sits at its default position which DOES put considerable front axle bias. A few good burnouts and you can say good-bye to the transfer case clutches. The tazer commands the actuator to have ZERO front axle bias. You can put the car on 4 jack stands and see for yourself the difference. post a video where a customer did the Tazer test on a Trackhawk before running it at the track..."
What Steve said, just buy the Tazer. I have one in my '14 5.7 AWD 300C JVL. Very worth it.
BTW, did you guys know RWD cars got a 2.73 rear axle and the AWD cars got 3.08's? I believe it's too make up for the extra weight.
I didn't know they had the 3.08 gearing - does make sense though. They're great off the line
I have the 3.09 rear end in my 2014 rt plus/max road and track
Yes I didn't know it either. I found out when I was looking at AWD vs RWD cars. I'm a tech at a CDJR dealer and can easily look up he options by VIN. I seen that by accident.
Makes sense on the Charger RT too.
Not only do the AWD cars get the better gears, but at least for my '14 300C it also got larger sway bars, larger brakes, higher rate shocks, and one piece lower control arms. And with all that the AWD is only 190lbs heavier.
I have an AWD RT and the car is great. Diablo tuner bbk shorty headers cai 6.4 intake working actuator with 87mm tb and soon to install the mopar performance stage 2 cam with mds delete. Car runs great.
I wonder how solid the front end components are as far as pushing more power? I’m sure he’ll make some people mad from a dig lol
Dig racing this thing would be hard to beat - esp if he adds some power! Launches hard
Got it in the new Rams ..
I’d think they got it worked out
@@mikekosar6135 time and more power will tell lol
They're plenty stout, there's a UA-camr pushing big HP in a AWD Charger. The front is engaged by a clutch, that clutch and when it engages is naturally torque limiting.
I know this off topic but I’m looking to get a new hood either from bmc or amerihood. I was wondering where did you get windshield fluid adapter or if you have one at all
