Guys I have a 2001 4.7 RC 5-Speed 3.93(peg-leg rear) Dakota Sport+ Dodge Motorsports Edition, as most of you know, but anyways, as of now I have an Airaid Quikfit Intake, and Flowmaster Force II 3'' exhaust system, what should I go with next? IAT? Computer flash? Headers? Also what are some of the part #'s to those universal traction bars you guys are using? Id like to go down Advance and pick up a pair right cheaplike if they are as you say.

I got the same truck! (not a Dakota Sport+ Dodge Motorsports Edition though) I found that porting and polishing the throttle body REALLY woke it up. The pegleg seems to be the weakest link in the equation now so I gonna drop in a powertrax no-slip this spring and an IAT adjuster and removing the clutch fan. The IAT adjuster should hold me until I get the cash for a flash. Next step is getting the PCM flashed. CW has dropped in the HO cams and says that he's getting some improvement, I figure that coupled with KRC's port and polish job on the heads sounds like they would complement each other well. I'm hoping to get the enough cash together by the end of this summer. So far the lakewoods (just look for the universal traction bars)have eliminated the wheelhop altogether and its the best 27.50 I've spent. However the bumpers were a little small so I got some SOS arm bushings and used a razerblade to cut the tips off to give me 1/2" clearence from the spring at the last position it sits about 1" from the spring eye and hasn't bent it yet and I've had them on since october. All this said, Matt Barrett (where is that guy?) said that for the 1/4 a set of slicks will get there quicker than anything else. So....good luck.

I have several bolt on mods:
K&N FIPK
Gibson Stainless Headers
Gibson muffler
Relocated the IAT to the K&N
My next mod is the Crower 1.7 Roller Rockers sitting in the garage...I can't wait. I had a machine shop in town mod my throttle body similiar to what Flowmetrics does. Cost me $100 in machining and it was well worth the cost...
These are all fairly easy bolt on mods to accomplish...
