Default 2001 Dodge Ram Mods To come!

Ya I have a 2001 dodge Ram 1500 off-road with the 5.9 liter 360 Gasser 4.10 gears and Limited Slip and 285/70/17 Toyo Open Countrys and it has about 80,000 miles on it and I have put an Flowmaster After-Cat Dual Exhaust on it and a Airaid Throttle body Spacer Accel performance cap and rotor and MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor Wires and Campion Platnum Plugs and its kinda quick but i wanna do a few other things to it and i wanted to know what type of 1/4 mile i could expect when these are all done and what you think of these aftermarket parts or if you have any other suggestions Thanks

A Brute Force Cold Air Intake?

A MSD Blaster Coil?

A Fastman 52mm throttle body? (heard they were the best)

Either a Hypertech or Superchips Programmer??


So what do you think would be my best bet and any other ideas
Also i was wondering i have an extended warrenty and was wondering if any of these would void it?? the other stuff i did to it didnt.
I was also thinkin of gutting my Cat would that help with performance any? and that iam guess would void my warrenty.



THANKS FOR THE INFO!!!

at the track a stock ram 4x4 with 3.55 gears.. 318 i think it was.. ran a 16.74.. a 360 would be in the low 16's stock.. so im thinking after ALL those mods.. 15.2-15.5.. still nice for a big truck.. even though were was a 2000 dodge cummins running 12.2's

Definatly consider the hypertech or superchips.....along with an air intake that will give u some extra oooommmpphhh. also do something with your exhaust if its stock....put some rumble in your ride[8D]

CIA, Headers, fastman, and a Programmer will give you quite a bit of power.

Oh yeah, take off that paperweight, I mean TB spacer. Its not doing ANYTHING, and if it is doing something, its lowering power.

Flowmaster After-Cat Dual Exhaust +5-6 HP
Accel performance cap and rotor +1 HP
MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor Wires/Campion Platnum Plugs +2 HP
Airaid Throttle body Spacer .... -10 HP

j/k...

But seriously your probably hindering your performance with that throttle body spacer

Theres a guy on her with the link to the website that even tells you that those things are only good for carbeurated/Throttle Body INJECTED vehicles (Doesnt help us MultiPort Fuel Injected or Direct Port Injected Folks)
