 Subject: What can I do???
IP: Logged
Message:
-For anyone who can help-
I have a 99 Dodge Dakota Sport with a Magnum V6. It has been stock since I bought it except for a K&N filter and Flowmasters. I woulk like to do something within a decent price range to increase it's performance. The main thing that I would like to increase is the takeoffs. Once the RPM'S get on up there it has quite a bit more top end then bottom. What should I do? I have thought about hedders and a high performance computer chip. I cannot locate a computer chip. What kind of chip should I use to gain the most HP, where can I get it and how much HP will I gain. If I were to put hedders on it would I need to change any sensors or anything? Any tips any of you could give to me on increasing performance would be greatfully appreciated.
Thanks-Seth

skip the engine mods and invest in some gears. chances are you have the 3.55's. go get some 3.92's. probably the best thing you can do for torque.

Average cost should be no more than $500-$600 with gears and labor (and warranty).

1). I switched over to the AMSOIL 0w-30 and all of
their other lubes.
2). Installed the +4 Bosch plugs and Bosch wires
3). Installed a pulley underdrive kit.
And I have noticed considerable gians in
horsepower with each stage of the process and I am
running the V-6 with 3.55 gears and stickshift.
