Default 2008 3.7L Raider performance parts???

I just got a 3.7L Raider I know it the same 3.7L as the Dakota

So far I have found the Airaid intake system. I was thinking about getting a True dual 2.25'' Exhaust with a magnaflow muffler and the TRUXX leveling kit. I also wanted to know if anyone has a tuning solution out for the 3.7L or if there is a bigger TB and header out for the truck. Also has anyone tired running a 50 wet shot on the truck?

i run a 125 wet shot on my 05 4.7 and love it. if you want and exhaust, go with a single. the duals on a six banger sound rasphy. my father in laws taco sounds terrible. there are some tuning application for the 3.7, just got to know where to look for them. i dont know where. my nitrous kit is from zex. propably the simpilist kit out there

I dont think I would go with a true dual on the Six, you'll lose all your bottom end. I am not sure about the headers. You can get a modded Fastman TB for the 3.7, just tell Dan The Fastman what ya want. He seems to be a nice guy Good luck and let us know what ya do

I'll deff be getting that TB. Also does anyone know what the stock exhaust diameter is?

All I need to find now are headers and Tune.


Thanks

I'm thinking hard about ditching my Flowmaster 40. Sounds good down low, but sometimes you gotta build rev's and then it gets annoying.

Read the V6 Ram forum too.

Truxxx is a rip off. You can get the same kit from AutoSpring for 69.95. Or, you can get a Daystar Kit for 129.95.

I think JBA made some for the Ram, not sure if they are possible to find anymore, or if they will have any fitup problems in a Dakota.

The only part where it may not fit is where it clears the firewall, it will bolt right up to the block
