5.9L performance
If I got a throttle body I would look at HughesEngines. When you combine that with a CAI and a PCM, Coil, wires...etc you should see a pretty big difference.
I have a great story. I live in Minneapolis and while working on my durango I broke the casing on the throttle body. Looking online I saw The Fastman lived nearby. I called, told him the story and went to his shop the next morning (two days after thanksgiving) where he installed one of his TB's while we stood there in the snow. The service, product, and price were all outstanding, as was Dan himself. great guy and a great upgrade, worth every penny. I have his TB mated to a Brute force, which works great, I am assuming many aftermarket intakes are about the same......
I also agree on the fastman TB, I have the 52mm and it's awesome, one of the most bang for the buck mods I did. my mpg jumped 2.5 mpg after the install. I'd stay away from the Jet stuff, I've heard that they suck and don't do squat. I have the hypertech and like it and would recommend it to anyone.
Gibson headers, flowmaster exhaust, msd ignition upgrades are all good. I have the dual out flow's but reduced the 2.5" outputs down to 2.25" to keep low end torque. I also have the K&N intake kit and love that as well. I just recently upgraded the filter to a masive 7" diamater x 9" long round and felt that the butt dyno was happy with it... tested it up in the mountains and found that on hills that I used to have to down shift into 3rd, I was able to keep it in OD and accelerate slightly up them at WOT... (my butt dyno was impressed).

The Famstman TBs are good have that on my 5.2. Get yourself a set of good headers. They make a huge difference. I dropped 7 tenths of a second off my 1/4 mile ET after headers and 3" magnaflow exhaust, i had the borla 2.25" kit on there earlier. Depending on your rig you might want to look into getting a new set of gears. Intake manifold would help, Cylinder heads, 1.7RR, a new cam. There is alot of stuff you can do to that 360. If you wanna go ***** to the wall then you can get a 408 stroker kit and really tear up the streets.
i'm not making a race car, i'm just looking for a little more umph for my 360..without breaking the bank....i have long tube headers in the works, and a brute force intake, cam, valve job and new springs, TB, i have exhaust on it, gonna do high flow cats into straight true duels....
