Default Anyone got any ideas on what i should do next?

I have an 04 dodge dakota 4x4 with the 3.7 v6. I have a CAI and dual exhaust and the 44 series flowmaster on it. 31's will be on in 4 days and i was just wondering if anyone had any ideas on what i should do next. i have strobe lights in the head lights and tail lights and and light all over the tool box and in the cab and under the door handles. i was just wondering if anyone has any other crazy ideas they think would look good or even any along the lines of performance upgrades? I was just wondering bc i am kind of running out of ideas. The crazier the better. Thanks in advance.

Cams, supercharger, turbo setup, lift, SAS solid axle swap, there are quite a few things you can do... what kind of money are you trying to spend?

Ive been thinking of making an r/t clone. Price isnt really a big deal ive been looking into a procharger setup, but i havent really found one yet. and that would require a complete rebuild more than likely and if i need to do that then i might just go for the clone

no computer crap needed, be cheaper to put in than finding a donor motor, reconditioning it, then splicing all the electrical together. Just throw that in there and be done with it. Although you'd have to find a NV 45 or 5400 to put behind it.

i like it. i graduate school in 2 months and when i get home and work for a couple months my truck is going into the garage and not coming out until serious changes are made. i love the dak's, so this type of vehicle is going to be my truck to build up big time.
