The guy who made the video is a tard.
The SRT10's were out this month apparently.
Part of a review
Pretty hard to tell with the shitty video quality, but it has a very similar body shape.

The most recent figures, which are sure to be bettered, show the following: 0 to 60 mph in 5.2 seconds; ¼-mile times in the mid-13s; a 60-to-0mph braking distance less than 120 feet; and, get this, a top speed 150mph.
Those figures place the SRT-10 in the same performance stratosphere as such notables as the Acura NSX, BMW M Roadster, Camaro Z28 SS, C-5 Corvette, Ferrari 456M, Jaguar XJR, Porsche 911, and the Lamborghini Countach.
Everyday ride and handling is excellent. Suspension is dropped an inch in front and two in the rear from where the stock Dodge Ram 1500 sits.
In the truck world there's only one that even comes close—the F150 Lightning. But close is all it'd be as the Ram SRT-10 is now the hand's-down dominator on street, strip and track.
In fact when you place the two pickups side-by-side, the F150 Lightning looks downright anemic. Put them on a slalom course and the Ford handles like a Lincoln LTD compared to the SRT-10's Viper-esque grip.

So basically.. You mean to tell me a smaller pulley and and intake takes the lightning from.. what do they make.. lets say 380 to be generous.. You're trying to tell me that he made 120 horses off of 2 MODS to equal the baseline of an SRT10? 
Explain your theory please... I'm all ears..
The Lightning was also underated, like the Cobra. No reason why this couldn't happen.

Perhaps Srce.. but that still doesn't explain why that Lightning kept walking that SRT10. and the owner of the truck has claimed only an intake and new nose pulley for the blower...

if you know anything about supercharger, the new pulley can add a **** load of power...its basically the same motor at the svt cobras, a pulley, exhaust, air filter and exhaust will get you almost 500hp...you can't compare a stock vs modified
