Hello guys I am somewhat new to the forums. I recently bought a 99' Dakota rt with 38,000miles on it. I figured the truck will last me for at least another 100k. So I want to put some performance parts into it.
My question is what are the best performance parts for my truck that are not too costly? but still make the truck faster or overall run better and longer. opinions?

 

Some heads, intake and manifold, cam, headers, roller rockers, and a tuner is what I can think of at the moment. Oh and some 4.10 gears. You're lucky that you got a low mile R/T.

 

RTs came with the 5.9, correct? You might want to check the rear differential to see if the LSD needs to be upgraded or replaced, since you'll already be in there if you do the gears.

 

what they said. 4.10's with an LSD service/replace, SCT tuner (hemifever), Harland Roller Rockers (Southeast RT), and headers would be a start.

 

yeah I was lucky getting it with low miles and price was pretty good. it also looks great. yellow with the super bee stripe on the back. thanks for the input. i'll have to look into getting those parts. I want to have the best Dakota on base

 

where can you find a supercharger or turbo? I have been looking for like 2 weeks now and cant find a single one. All the companies have discontinued the supercharger or turbo products.

 

the stock PCM highly disagrees with Boost. you pretty much have to switch to megasquirt to go boosted. I don't even know if the Mopar performance PCM supports boost, but I dont think it does.
