Dakota RT build

Hey guys I just thought Dakota RT as my first project car and I was wondering what would be the first modifications I should do to the engine?

Then it's time for the usual stuff.

Headers, free flowing exhaust, tuner, roller rockers? Better heads/intake/cam? How fast do you wanna spend?

Well I don't have a lot of money to spend right now so I guess I'll do roller rockers and ab intake. This is going to have to be a long-term project since I'm going to college soon.
