COMP Cams HRT Turbo Stage 2 Hydraulic Roller Camshaft 03-08 Dodge 5.7/6.1L Hemi

This COMP Cams HRT Turbo Stage 2 Hydraulic Roller Camshaft is what you get when you're pushing serious boost on your 2003-2008 Dodge 5.7L or 6.1L HEMI engine. It's designed specifically for larger turbochargers, especially those with optimized low backpressure hot sides, and it's built to handle serious RPMs, dyno-tested up to 7500+ RPM. This isn't just a mild bump in performance; it's a key component for building a powerful forced-induction setup.

What sets this camshaft apart are its advanced lobe designs, featuring COMP Cams' "Low Shock Technology." This means the profiles are engineered to maximize horsepower and torque gains while also improving stability at higher engine speeds. Importantly, these lobes are also gentler on your valve springs, which helps extend their life and reduces the load they have to handle. To top it off, every HRT camshaft receives a Micro Surface Enhancement (MSE) finishing process. This treatment reduces surface roughness, increasing the effective load-bearing area by 250%, which allows the camshaft to handle much higher loads without issue, adding to its strength and overall performance.

Keep in mind that this camshaft is part of a system. To get it running right and ensure reliability, you'll need to use a COMP Cams DOD Delete Kit and upgraded valve springs. For 5.7L-6.4L engines with VVT from 2009 and newer, you'll also need a COMP Cams phaser limiter or lock kit, though this specific camshaft is for the 03-08 models without VVT. This is a serious upgrade for a serious build, and it's designed to work with larger turbo setups to really wake up your HEMI.
