To answer the questions:
1) Look for a good quality wire and you can go up to 8mm w/o having to upgrade your entire ignition system. Get a cap and rotor set-up w/ brass terminals
2) Read Silver_Dodge's post entitled "K&N FIPK no more" somewhere in there he listed what size (maybe even p/n as well) of K&N fits in the Mopar set-up.
3)Changing the diff fluid is a good idea, especially if it's never been done. It's super easy and often overlooked.

RE: Tune Up
I have a 5.9 but I used MSD SuperConductor wires 8.5mm with inexpensive NGK V-Power plugs and a brass cap/rotor all with excellent results in gas mileage and pep with NO ping / spark knock.
The plugs only cost me 10.00 & change for a set of 8 and the wires are a little pricey 79.00-90.00 but I found them on Amazon w/ free shipping for 66.50. I have the part #s but I dont know if they will fit a 5.2 prolly not. And the cap & rotor were 11.00.
