For performance?

It depends on what you call simple and what you want to spend.
Mopar PCM to a larger throttle body to headers to injectors coil ect. The FAQ has a long list of performance parts along with links.

Summit is not to hard to find what you want.

I read on another forum that you can add the mopar performance pcm for the 5.9 to the 5.2 and will get better performance results. Not sure if thats true but would like to know before i buy one. Also there is the performance throttle body upgrade from fastman that everyone ive seen talk about swears by. Ive checked them out and they look like they would flow very good. Both the pcm and throttle body shouldn't take more than about an hour to install. Headers are a good mod that will take about a half a day to install unless you start breaking bolts lol just try to break the bolts on stock manifolds loose with engine hot. And a cold air intake shouldn't take but about an hour for install. Andd as far as summit search by make and model the add engine size and engine family then search by part type and you should be able to find what your looking for.

I'm assuming your talking about www.summitracing.com below the search text box there is a small box you have to click/check that says search within results.
