Default Performance ecm for 1996 ram

What options do I have for a performance computer/tuner for my 1996?
It's a 1996 ram 1500 sport
5.2, auto, 2wd, single cab.
My build date is 10/06 so it's the system where Dodge basically tried the obd 1.5. I've found Mopar computers for the earlier 96s that use the sane style ecm as the 95 with the single long connector. But I can't seem to find anything for my truck. And there's so much back and forth on tuners so... Not sure which way to go. I want something plug and play. I dont want to have to call this person and get a tune and buy this tuner and upload it and the. Flash mine etc etc. I wanna bolt up my complete new exhaust, put my 1.7 rockers on, add my volant cold air intake, 185 thermostat, underdrive pulleys, electric fans, 9mm wires and msd coil and then just plug In a tuner/ecm and go. Simple, safe, easy and a decent amount of extra power.
Any advice?

Basically it's going to be Hemifever tuning, or Flyin' Ryan performance. I don't think any of the others support anything older than 98. Your ECM is flash programmable at least, so, that's a plus.
